  2019-11-13

  

  In terms of its protease activity, MME has a broad range of substrates being able to target glucagon, bradykinin, GLP1, and several other α-Bungarotoxin of circulating small molecules [25]. MME has been shown to target free insulin B-chain [32], although whether MME could target and degrade the ins

  2019-11-13

  

  The discoidin domain receptors, DDR1 and DDR2, are receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) that are stimulated by collagen in the extracellular matrix (ECM). Unlike most other RTKs, they form ligand-independent stable dimers that are non-covalently linked. This ECM activation induces receptor phosphorylati

  Advantages of modified proteins over unmodified ones In contrast to small-molecule drugs, proteins are readily amenable to site-specific alterations through genetic engineering. In principle, therefore, it is possible to build in features that allow them to remain active for longer in the body an

  2019-11-13

  

  Most remarkably, an essentially identical collagen-binding mode to DDR2 is employed by SPARC, an α-helical matricellular protein unrelated to DDR2 that also recognizes the GVMGFO motif in collagen (Giudici et al., 2008, Hohenester et al., 2008). The convergence of binding mechanisms suggests that th

  2019-11-13

  

  Expression and Tissue Functions of DDRs The DDRs are widely expressed in different tissues, both during development and in adult organisms. DDR1 mRNA is found in many tissues in mice and humans, with high levels in brain, lung, kidney, spleen, and placenta (Di Marco et al., 1993, Johnson et al.,

  The attachment of ubiquitin to RTKs, such as EGFR, mediates efficient delivery through the endosome-lysosome system for proteolysis. In this way, RTK degradation enables cessation of signal transduction. A recent siRNA screen identified a number of USPs that can significantly modulate EGFR levels an

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Although autophagy is known to be implicated in the therapeutic effect of DNA alkylating agents such as MNNG [28], [29], [30], the molecular mechanisms underlying autophagy induced by MNNG remain largely elusive. In this study, we present evidence sh

  Conclusions Acknowledgements Introduction Liver cancer was the fifth most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide [1]. Most of primary liver cancers (70–90%) occurring worldwide are hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) [2]. Persistent hepatitis B virus (HBV) i

  Thus RhoA-mediated inhibition of DGKθ is a well-characterized pathway, conserved from C. elegans to mammalian tissues, which enables G-protein coupled receptors to regulate the extent and kinetics of DAG-mediated signaling by fine tuning DGK enzymatic activity. Acknowledgments Introduction Ce

  The only reported synthesis of the aminobicyclic core of is based on bis-alkylation of a 4-amino-5,6-dihydroxypyrmidine with dibromoethane. The likelihood of poor regiocontrol/reactivity in utilizing such a transformation for the synthesis of compounds with a substituent on the dioxinyl ring led us

  Many studies have used paradigms based on animal models to understand human emotional behavior because it appears to be correlated with fear- and anxiety-related defensive patterns in non-human mammals (Blanchard et al., 2001). In this case, defensive reactions are used to study the neural substrate

  In most cases, the ligand affinity between subtypes is similar, but their tissue distribution is different. In the case of the estrogen receptors (ER), two subtypes (ERα and ERβ) exist (Kuiper et al., 1996) and ERβ has several isoforms, designated ERβ1–5 (Moore et al., 1998) or ERβcx (Ogawa et al.,

  Mammalian cells contain significant amounts of a relatively lesser known enzyme that shows marked specifity for ether lipids containing AA and other 20–22 carbon fatty acids. This enzyme is called CoA-independent transacylase (CoA-IT), and transfers polyunsaturated moieties of 20–22 carbons, typical

  To examine the influence of aromatic motifs on the bridging lysine esters we analysed DNA alkylating activity of the set of compounds 1–6. The lysine derivatives were chosen as it is relatively easy to prepare different esters and thereby study the impact of different groups on the reactivity toward
