  2020-06-22

  

  The action of 17-pt-PGE2 as an EP1 receptor agonist [34] was demonstrated in several experimental settings, including cancer, neurons, vascular system, kidney and was confirmed by application of EP1 receptor selective antagonists [35], [36], [37], [38], [39], [40], [41]. Receptor binding studies in

  There has recently been some interest in Uba6, which is most similar to slime mold, with BLAST identities of 59% and positives 73% in the 400–600 ADD range. The 400–600 ADD correlation of the two profiles is a striking 87%, so functional differences probably arise outside the ADD binding domain. Hu

  It is noteworthy that little is known as to the role of autophagy in regulation of eNOS phosphorylation and eNOS uncoupling. eNOS monomers, but not eNOS dimers could be degraded by ubiquitination [39], harbingering the existence of protein degradation pathways in modulation of eNOS turnover and acti

  It was demonstrated that ET-1 signaling is the primary axon guidance mechanism that accounts for sympathetic innervation of the sinoatrial node and myocardium in the developing mouse heart [11]. In this article, we will review the findings relating to the basic profiles; i.e. molecular features of

  Ample evidence has shown that ET-1 system plays a pivotal role in the development of cardiovascular anomalies and pharmacological inhibition of ETA prevents the development of cardiac hypertrophy [[37], [38], [39]]. Yanagisawa and coworkers, who first reported the cardiomyocyte-specific endothelin A

  Ethyl 1-naphthoates (10a–h) were successfully reduced to 1-naphthylmethanols (12a–h) by using LiAlH4 with 8–87% yields. Then PCC was used to convert the alcohols into the corresponding 4-alkyl-1-naphthaldehyde derivatives (13a–h) with relatively higher yields (58–90%) as represented in Scheme 2. The

  2020-06-22

  

  Introduction Coping with DNA damage is possible thanks to surveillance mechanisms (checkpoints), that detect the problem and promote its solution [1], [2], and to repair and tolerance pathways that remove the lesions or reduce the damage consequences [3], [4]. Failures in these processes have a h

  DGKδ deficiency caused a significant increase in the SERT protein level, but its mRNA level was not affected (Fig. 1). These results suggest that SERT protein stability is directly reduced by interaction with the DGKδ protein. In contrast, DGKδ deficiency regulated both TPH-2 and MAO-A protein and m

  Introduction Prolyl hydroxylation is a widely observed post translational modification in collagen, an abundant animal protein. The high content (~13% per chain of the triple helical structure) of 4-hydroxyproline (Hyp,O) in collagen, togather with the natural abundance of collagen has led to the e

  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

  RING dimerization RING-type domains are found in many different structural contexts. While many exist as single-chain nmda receptor (Fig. 3A), a notable feature of RING-type E3s is their tendency to form homodimers and heterodimers (Fig. 3C–F). Homodimeric RING-type E3s include cIAP, RNF4, BIRC7

  cAMP-mediated signaling pathways are important for maintaining metabolic homeostasis, and the effects of the glucagon/catecholamine–cAMP–PKA axis on energy balance have been well documented [20]. For example, Heparin of the PKA 2β regulatory subunit (RIIβ) in mice leads to increased expression of u

  2020-06-22

  

  The biological actions of ET‐1 are mediated via two distinct receptor subtypes, the endothelin A and endothelin B receptors (ETA/ETB). While activation of ETA is assumed to mediate contraction of smooth muscle cells, the activity of ETB is related to transient vasodilation [22]. In human corpus cave

  Introduction Protein modification by ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins is one of the most common and important regulatory mechanisms in biology (Finley et al., 2004, Pickart, 2004). Ubiquitination is carried out by an enzymatic cascade consisting of three steps. In the first step, ubiquitin i

  Studies of LRRK2 tagged with green fluorescent protein revealed the presence of monomeric LRRK2 in the glibenclamide of living cells, while LRRK2 oligomers were found in the proximity of the plasma membrane, suggesting that both oligomerization status and compartmentalization of LRRK2 defines its f
