The E1 enzyme is the apex for downstream enzymatic cascades and signaling pathways mediated by Ub and Ub-like proteins (Ubls) (Pickart, 2001). Studying characteristics of E1 and its catalytic functions may throw light to the role of ubiquitination in cell development. All known eukaryotic E1 are mon

Biological roles of DGKϵ Summary and future perspectives The most Forskolin segment of DGKϵ, comprised of residues 20–42, appears to have no role in binding the lipid substrate DAG or in the acyl chain specificity of substrate phosphorylation. Nevertheless, the sequence in this segment of DGKϵ

G3DH has gained interest because of its broad substrate specificity and site-selective oxidation properties [9,10]. The conversion product, 3-ketoglycoside, possesses potential as a starting material for the chemical industry such as in polymer and surfactants because the keto group becomes a specif

The recombinant Scl2 collagen system has shown capability as a biomaterial as well because of its adaptability and scalability. Scl2 was functionalized to crosslink into a hydrogel without disrupting its triple helix [130]. The Scl2–hydrogel crosslinking also did not disrupt cell adhesion and integr

As temperatures increase, rates of spontaneous deamination also increase such that hyperthermophilic organisms must have efficient mechanisms for dealing with this potential hazard.8., 9. The hyperthermophile Methanococcus jannaschii has both a dCTP deaminase (encoded by the gene at locus MJ0430) an

Cytokines as targets for the development of drugs Since the first scientific evidence describing the large number of cytokines and their functional roles and involvement in molecular mechanism of various diseases or disorders researchers have targeted cytokines. (Isaacs and Lindenmann, 1957), Des

Discussion We are reporting a cryptic insertion of chromosome 22 material (EWS) to the long arm of chromosome 11 (11q24, FLI-1) recognizable by FISH in 7340 exhibiting trisomy 8 as the sole cytogenetic anomaly. In ES and PNET tumors, trisomy 8 is the most common secondary abnormality [6]. Additi

The Penicillium strain used in this work was isolated from Atlantic forest soil and previously screened as lipase producer (Tauk-Tornisielo et al., 2005). The immobilization was previously evaluated using hydrophobic supports, i.e. agarose based butyl-(But), phenyl-(Phe) and octyl-Sepharose (Oct), a

Phenotypic responses: alkylation-induced cell death and mutagenesis E. coli alkB mutants were isolated in a screen for strains specifically sensitive to the cytotoxicity of MMS but not UV-irradiation. This was the first indication that the AlkB protein is a primary cellular defence against alkyla

Dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) is an excellent molecular target for this study because it has been and is currently studied by using different molecular modeling techniques [6], [7], [8], [9]. Kerrigan et al. have reported an interesting review about recent progress in molecular dynamics simulations

In anticipation of an approach based on modification of the cyclohexylacetic 623 synthesis subunit of 1 as a means of improving permeability, a set of analogs were prepared to map out the optimum display of the acidic functionality. Homologated acids 25 and 26 were found to be equipotent to 1, alth

The collagen-binding membrane proteins, discoidin domain receptors 1 and 2 (DDR1 and DDR2) belong to the family of receptor tyrosine kinase and are expressed in a variety of mammalian cells.7, 8 These transmembrane glycoproteins (∼125 kDa) have been found to be over-expressed or atypically expressed
