Introduction Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women and one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Estrogen receptor alpha (ERα, “wild-type” estrogen receptor), encoded by the estrogen receptor1 (ESR1) gene, is expressed in approximately 70% of all breast cancers. Hormonal therapy ha

Materials and methods Results Discussion In this work, we have studied the contribution of different pathways to the slow but stable progression of replication forks through DNA damaged by MMS [15]. The in vivo analysis of DNA replication forks along a specific chromosome of S. cerevisiae h

2020-07-06
One strategy which is different from the above is to isolate a similar enzyme to the one under study which will not be recognized by the antibody of the original protein. This approach will lead to prolonging an enzyme’s activity. For example, a novel variant of Carboxypeptidase G2 (CPG2), which has

More recently, it was discovered that BChE hydrolyzes the neuropeptide gut hormone, ghrelin [25], [26], [27], [28]. Nonetheless, because the enzyme reaction is very slow, those who first reported this finding were initially reluctant to attribute a real physiological role for that phenomenon. Our ow

It is of interest that an initial maternal experience in virgin mice produces both changes in subsequent maternal behavior as well as possible changes in neural gene expression. Stolzenberg et al. (2012) proposed that experience-based changes in maternal responsiveness may be mediated by chromatin m

Our current understanding of nucleotide metabolism in has made it possible to identify numerous proteins which serve essential roles in the life cycle of the parasite. One such protein is thymidylate synthase-dihydrofolate reductase (TS-DHFR), a bifunctional enzyme which is necessary for the produc

Overall, the DDR1 kinase domain has a typical kinase domain structure and adequate sequence and/or structure similarity with other kinase domains, as shown in Fig. 2, which allow homology modeling of the active and inactive conformations. In addition to conformational changes to the activation loop

van Linden et al. developed a comprehensive guide that describes drug and ligand binding to more than 1200 human and mouse protein kinase domains [77]. Their KLIFS (kinase–ligand interaction fingerprint and structure) directory includes an alignment of 85 potential ligand binding-site residues occur

RING dimerization RING-type domains are found in many different structural contexts. While many exist as single-chain Navitoclax (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 (s

Many studies reporting on discoveries of DUBs in the TGFβ and BMP pathways have relied on RNAi strategies to investigate loss-of-function impact. While RNAi strategies are useful tools, there are limitations ranging from limited knockdowns of targets to potential off-target effects. New and better t

Two additional hydrogen-bonds are formed by the -substituted methoxy-group with Ser and Asp. Ser exerts the role of a gate keeper in CK1: Entry of the ATP in the binding-site causes a conformational change into the closed form by Ser, which locks the binding-site and prevents ATP-diffusion out of th

Cells expressing the CDK5 S47D mutant exhibit impaired migration and enhanced proliferation: Finally, we wished to determine the functional significance of this phosphoevent. Multiple studies have implicated active CDK5 in promotion of cell migration [9,16,[21], [22], [23], [24]] and in one study th

Regarding the mechanism of action of CRF, several studies have shown that low doses of CRF may preferentially activate CRF1 receptors in glutamatergic projection neurons, serotoninergic neurons or glutamatergic collaterals in the medial prefrontal cortex (Vertes, 2004). Indeed, prosencephalic inacti
