From:Science (Vol. 286, Issue 5438) Peer-ReviewedUbiquitination of receptor protein-tyrosine kinases (RPTKs) terminates signaling by marking active receptors for degradation, c-Cbl, an adapter protein for RPTKs, positively regulates RPTK ubiquitination in a manner...
-
From:Fungal Biology and Biotechnology (Vol. 6, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground Filamentous fungi are important producers of enzymes and bioactive secondary metabolites and are exploited for industrial purposes. Expression and characterization of biosynthetic pathways requires stable...
-
From:Epigenetics & Chromatin (Vol. 12, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBackground While the role of Polycomb group protein-mediated "cell memory" is well established in developmental contexts, little is known about their role in adult tissues and in particular in post-mitotic cells....
-
From:eLife (Vol. 9) Peer-ReviewedNuclear export of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) is intimately coupled to their synthesis. pre-mRNAs assemble into dynamic ribonucleoparticles as they are being transcribed, processed, and exported. The role of ubiquitylation in...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 10, Issue 10) Peer-ReviewedThe two cytosolic/nuclear isoforms of the molecular chaperone HSP90, stress-inducible HSP90[alpha] and constitutively expressed HSP90[beta], fold, assemble and maintain the three-dimensional structure of numerous client...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 10, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedThe dinoflagellate Karenia mikimotoi forms blooms in the coastal waters of temperate regions and occasionally causes massive fish and invertebrate mortality. This study aimed to elucidate the toxic effect of K....
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 8, Issue 11) Peer-ReviewedIn eukaryotes many players in the DNA-damage response (DDR) catalyze protein sumoylation or ubiquitylation. Emphasis has been placed on how these modifications orchestrate the sequential recruitment of repair factors to...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 10, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedParkinson's disease (PD) and schizophrenia (SCZ) are frequent central nervous disorders that have unclear etiologies but that show similarities in their pathogenesis. Since elevated histamine levels in the brain have...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 10, Issue 8) Peer-ReviewedGlutamine synthetase plays a key role in nitrogen metabolism, thus the fine regulation of this enzyme in Prochlorococcus, which is especially important in the oligotrophic oceans where this marine cyanobacterium...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 10, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedBackground Short-term intermittent hypoxia (IH) is common in patients with acute respiratory disorders. Although prolonged exposure to hypoxia induces atrophy and increased fatigability of skeletal muscle, the...
-
From:PLoS ONE (Vol. 10, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedCdt1 begins to accumulate in M phase and has a key role in establishing replication licensing at the end of mitosis or in early G1 phase. Treatments that damage the DNA of cells, such as UV irradiation, induce Cdt1...
