  2020-03-21

  

  In the literature, we can find two different modes of action for estrogens: Firstly there is the commonly accepted genomic pathway. Estrogens pass the cell membrane due to their lipophilic character via diffusion and bind to estrogen receptors (ERs) in the cytoplasm. After binding a dimerization of

  2020-03-21

  

  NF-κB is a family of protein mediators that regulate various innate and adaptive immune responses [29,30]. The NF-κB family consists of the following five proteins: c-Rel (Rel); p65 (RelA); RelB; p50(NF-κB1); and p52(NF-κB2). It has been confirmed that NF-κB is activated by TNF family cytokines, suc

  2020-03-21

  

  Biochemically, the primary function of PPIP5K2 is 1-kinase-mediated phosphorylation of 5-IP7 to form 1,5-IP8 (Shears, 2018). To a lesser extent, PPIP5K2 also phosphorylates IP6 to produce 1-IP7. Furthermore, PPIP5K2 has been shown to catalyze a reverse reaction, that is, dephosphorylation of 1,5-IP8

  We also identified Ubc13 as a functional E2 for LNX1 and determined the complex structure of LNX1–Ubc13~Ub, which depicts the first step of the ubiquitination process (Fig. 3a.). Comparing structural alignment of the RNF4 RING: Ubc13~Ub: Ube2V2 complex (PDB code 5AIU) [33] and the RNF4:Ubc13~Ub com

  Chain specific ubiquitin probes The conventional way of assessing linkage specificity is by measuring turnover rates of different diubiquitin molecules as substrates. Although this method has been applied successfully in several studies [7••, 8] it is limited to isolated DUBs, whereas linkage spe

  Acknowledgements Introduction Chemokines are a superfamily of chemotactic cytokines that play important roles in regulating cell migration and activation under inflammatory conditions (Nomiyama et al., 2008; Peatman and Liu, 2007; Zlotnik and Yoshie, 2000), such as angiogenesis (Arenberg et al

  Does hydroxylation of proline have a specific role in the structure and function of the conotoxins? Several studies in the literature provide insights into the role of proline hydroxylation in the Conus peptides. The consequences of proline hydroxylation on oxidative folding and biological activity

  To better understand the mechanism of splicing in CLCN1, we began by constructing a minigene spanning exons 5–7 of CLCN1, resulting in the synthetic CLCN1 (5–7) minigene. We also established a new assay using real-time reverse transcription (RT)-PCR, which can distinguish between splicing variants b

  We hypothesize that both IGF-1-dependent kinase activation and locally synthesized neuroestrogens interactively regulate estrogen receptor activity in neuronal sglt 1 in the absence of exogenously applied estradiol. The Neuro-2A cell line was chosen as the model system for these studies because IGF

  2020-03-20

  

  Both receptors belong to the large family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) [4,5], which often appeared as monomers, dimers and higher order aggregates [6,7]. There is evidence that these receptor-complexes can modulate the functionality and the pharmacology of the receptors [8,9] by sequesteri

  Methacholine (MCh) is a bronchoconstrictive agent that has been widely used in the diagnoses of airway narrowing and hyperresponsiveness (Jonasson et al., 2009). MCh induces muscle contractions by stimulating the muscarinic cholinergic receptors that are found in both the airways and the lung parenc

  DGKs inhibition and signaling Local DAG levels are strictly controlled by a balance between synthesis and degradation rates. Both receptor controlled PLC-mediated production and DGK-mediated degradation are classically implicated in the control of “signaling” DAG. However, this dogma is starting
