  PFL-AE as a model for the GRE–AEs Most of the GRE–AEs have proven difficult to study due to instability, difficulty in overexpression, lability of the iron-sulfur cluster, or other reasons. PFL-AE is the exception, and after the initial discovery of the iron–sulfur cluster in this enzyme [60], co

  Prospect of DDR2 antagonist DDR2, a receptor of tyrosine kinase has been found now to be reported to play a significant role in onset of osteoarthritis at the early stage of diseases progression. The DDR2 are the receptor for extracellular collagen and activated upon the binding of collagen resul

  2021-03-02

  

  A cocktail approach can detect the activities of multiple CYP 450 isoforms following administration of multiple CYP-specific substrates in a single experiment. Caffeine, losartan, omeprazole, dextromethorphan and midazolam are often used as substrates in “cocktail probes” of human cytochrome CYP1A2,

  E3 ligases provide substrate recognition specificity Ubiquitination Zileuton and substrate specificity in mammals is achieved by the existence of over six-hundred E3-ubiquitin ligases that catalyze the final step of ubiquitination, compared with only one E1 and very few E2 enzymes known till date [

  2021-03-02

  

  A growing number of other post-translational modifications are implicated in regulation of the ubiquitin system, including substrate modification by hydroxylation, glycosylation, acetylation, methylation, modification by poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), and attachment of ubiquitin-like modifiers. The HIF1-α

  2021-03-02

  

  The component E1 of PDHc (PDHc-E1) catalyzes the first step of multistep processes, using thiamine diphosphate (ThDP) and Mg2+ as cofactors.15, 16 Especially, this PDHc-E1 catalyzed process is a rate limiting step among multistep processes. Accordingly, the PDHc should be inactive by inhibiting the

  2021-03-02

  

  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

  2021-03-02

  

  Our finding that one enzyme acts both as a primase and a DNAP poses evolutionary and mechanistic questions. In particular, why do cellular organisms require two enzymes to fulfill de novo DNA synthesis? The inability of cellular replicases to perform as primases might be dictated by the challenges a

  The 8 members in apple are similar in number to the 7 in Arabidopsis and the 8 in rice, but fewer than the 10 found in mammalian species. GenBank numbers have also been reported for DGK homologues from tomato (AW035995), maize (AY106320), wheat (BT009326), a Populus cross (BU828590), grape (CB981130

  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

  NF-κB and STAT as Regulators of the CDK System While current data support the concept that CDKs augment the proinflammatory activity of NF-κB, our understanding of the function of this transcription factor system in CDK regulation remains patchy. Seminal studies showed the contribution of NF-κB t

  T helper (Th) sq 22 receptor play a central role in activation of immune system against infectious agents through secretion of lymphokines or cytokines. African trypanosomes target the Th cells and alter their activation, possibly for their own survival and perpetuity (Namangala, 2011). Trypanosoma

  Introduction PGE2 is a major mediator present at sites of inflammation [1]. It is well established that PGE2 contributes to the localized and systemic symptoms of inflammation. A key study by Portanova et al. [2] demonstrated that anti-PGE2 DNQX disodium salt were able to reverse the swelling and p

  Generally, glycines (and other small residues such as alanine) present in a helical GxxxG-motif that are facing the same side of the helix form a uniform surface that enables direct contact with a second helix. Crystal structures of multipass membrane proteins have demonstrated that GxxxG-motifs are
