  Acknowledgments Introduction Cholesterol is an essential lipid for the development, growth, and wellbeing of humans. In newborn children, cord blood cholesterol concentration is 1.5 mmol/l, on average [[1], [2], [3], [4]]. During the first year of life, cholesterol concentration in serum incre

  Interestingly, several ES cell lines are null for p53, possibly because the EWS-FLI1 chimeric protein can directly and indirectly interfere with p53 activity [38], [39]. The inhibition, loss and/or mutation of p53, one of the most common events in tumorigenesis, results in a decreased oxygen consump

  More and more studies are focused on the function role of EPAC1 in cancer proliferation, apoptosis and migration. Recently, it was reported that the EPAC-ERK and AKT signaling pathways promote the B cell antigen receptor (BCR) mediated growth arrest and apoptosis in the B lymphoma cell line WEHI-231

  Lavallee et al. [30] reported that PREG could be esterified by lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT). LCAT uses cholesterol and phosphatidyl choline present in the newly formed high-density lipoprotein (HDL) as substrates and convert them into cholesteryl esters and lysophosphatidyl choline. T

  Acknowledgments Introduction Endothelin receptors Shortly after the discovery of ET‐1, two types of seven transmembrane G protein‐coupled receptors were cloned called endothelin receptor A (ETA) (Arai et al., 1990) and ETB (Sakurai et al., 1990). The affinity of the ETA receptor for ET-3 is

  2020-09-19

  

  In mammals, neutrophil elastase is a trypsin-like serine protease stored in the azurophilic granules of naïve neutrophils [15], [16]. The catalytic activity of neutrophil elastase relies on a His57–Asp102–Ser195 triad (chymotrypsin numbering system) that functions by transfer of electrons from the c

  Our data furthermore suggest that Ch25h-induced oxysterols could play an important role in modulating the immune cell migration. Mechanistically, we observed impaired trafficking of CD44+CD4+ T cells in mice deficient for Ch25h. CD44+CD4+ T cells lacking EBI2, the receptor of 7α-25OHC, were delayed

  Likewise, the conserved cysteine in the E2 protein is the only residue shown to be essential for the transfer of Ub/Ubl from E2 to the HECT ligases (Dye and Schulman, 2007, Wu et al., 2003). However, all other terminal Ub/Ubl transfer reactions involving E2 enzymes suggest a critical role for the ta

  Significance Our understanding of the ubiquitin biology has been rapidly expanding. The role of the ubiquitin system in the pathogenesis of numerous disease states has increased the interest in finding new strategies to pharmacologically interfere with the enzymes responsible of the ubiquitinatio

  Concholepas concholepas, our model species for this study, is a marine gastropod found along the Chilean coast that has become commercially important [25], [26], [27]. Until now, the main focus of immunology related to C. concholepas is the production of a novel hemocyanin that has been useful for t

  Introduction Determining how genes function together as biological systems is a defining challenge of the genomic era. While genome sequences reveal the DNA blueprint of organisms, deciphering how this blueprint leads to biological function is challenging due in large part to the complexity of prot

  With regard to the DGATs, we have found that the majority of algal species encode at least one DGAT1, although it appears to be absent from Ostreococcus and Micromonas, as is the case for yeast, S. cerevisiae. More surprising is the presence of multiple DGAT2 genes in algae, with the exception of C.
