  In an RNAi screen to interrogate the function of transmembrane proteins in ISCs/EBs, we identified the SJ protein tetraspanin 2A (Tsp2A) as a tumor suppressor. Further characterization reveals that Tsp2A expression initiates in ISCs and Tsp2A protein assembles at the SJs in the progenitor MS023 that

  2021-12-24

  

  Kinases belonging to the Thousand and one (Tao) family are conserved throughout evolution. Three Tao proteins are encoded in the human genome (TAO1, TAO2, and TAO3), while D. melanogaster possesses a single ancestral Tao kinase (Tao-1). Like Hpo and GckIII, Tao kinases belong to the Sterile 20-like

  2021-12-24

  

  While the specific set of challenges associated with deorphanization and transforming each poorly characterized GPCR into a useful drug target will be unique, much can be learned by considering how these issues have been addressed for other receptors. One group of poorly characterized GPCRs that hav

  Endogenous and synthetic ligands of GPR55 There are currently limited commercially available synthetic agonists and antagonists that are specific for GPR55. A large number of studies have investigated the pharmacology of GPR55 4, 23, 25, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, with contradictory findings reporte

  To overcome these limitations, investigators have developed novel strategies for identifying and purifying gonadotropes from transgenic mouse models. For example, FSH-producing gonadotropes have been tagged in vivo with a transgenic cell surface antigen (H-2Kk) so that they can be purified in vitro

  2021-12-24

  

  Due to the requirement of high-end methods such as total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy to visualize lipid rafts, isolation procedures are employed to study the protein content of lipid rafts [29]. The different methods utilized to isolated lipid rafts and other low density micro

  2021-12-24

  

  In the present study, compared to diabetic control rats, hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase activity was significantly decreased in both SE and METF treated diabetic animals, with the latter producing greater reduction in glucose-6-phosphatase activity. This observation is consistent with the claim of Ta

  2021-12-24

  

  The classical genomic effects of GR come about through ligand-bound GR homodimerizing in the nucleus and via direct binding to GREs on the target genes, bringing about transcriptional activation or repression. Examples of target genes up-regulated by activated GR include genes encoding β2-adrenergic

  2021-12-24

  

  AKR1D1 is very highly expressed in human liver and based upon the observations outlined above, with respect to other steroid hormone pre-receptor metabolising enzymes, it is entirely plausible that AKR1D1 could represent a critical regulatory step in the control of metabolic phenotype within the li

  2021-12-24

  

  GOAT belongs to the super family of membrane-bound O-acyltransferases (MBOATs). It is encoded by the gene MBOAT4 in human. The protein GOAT is highly conserved from zebrafish to human (Yanagi et al., 2018). GOAT is ubiquitously expressed with abundant expression in the stomach and intestine (Sakata

  The ability of GPX4 and other selenoproteins to be selectively induced by ferroptotic stimuli suggests that the stress-induced increase in the transcription of a number of putative, “antioxidant” selenoproteins is an adaptive homeostatic, but insufficient response to prevent cell death in the face

  Despite these multiple mechanisms of viral persistence, one patient has been reportedly cured from HIV-1 infection . Timothy Brown, also known as the 'Berlin patient', was diagnosed with HIV-1 infection in 1995. After controlling viremia for several years via cART, he was diagnosed with acute myeloi

  Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2/neu, also known as CerbB-2, or ERBB-2) is a proto-oncogene located on chromosome 17q21, which encodes a transmembrane protein with tyrosine kinase activity, and belongs to the HER receptor family (EGFR, named also HER1, HER3, and HER4) [6]. HER2 is invo
