• Collagen alignment can contribute to tissue stiffening

  2020-05-13

  

  Collagen alignment can contribute to tissue stiffening (Malik et al., 2015, Paszek et al., 2005), and ECM stiffness in turn is a powerful activator of integrin function (Levental et al., 2009). These findings highlight the contribution of the mechanical properties of the ECM to signal transduction.

  2020-05-12

  

  Structure and function of EPAC isoforms EPACs are guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) for the Ras-like GTPases Rap1 and Rap2 [9]. There are two mammalian EPAC isoforms, EPAC1 and EPAC2 1, 2 (Figure 1). Whereas EPAC1 displays a wide tissue distribution, the expression of EPAC2 is more restr

  2020-05-12

  

  Autophagy is a degradation pathway existing in all eukaryotic organisms. It is the main system for the degradation of bulk cytoplasmic components in cells (Feng et al., 2014), but it also plays a crucial role in other processes, as immunity (Wileman, 2013), mitochondrial (Dengjel and Abeliovich, 201

  2020-05-12

  

  Introduction The ubiquitination status of a target protein is achieved via a delicate balance between two opposing forces: ubiquitin E3 ligases and DUBs. It has been postulated that the majority of proteins in a cell are regulated and modified by ubiquitin at some point (Hershko and Ciechanover,

  Enzymes repairing alkylated DNA Induction of the Ada regulon Methylated Ada is a strong activator for ada and alkA promoters. Although much weaker than the methylated form, unmethylated Ada acts alone as an activator for ada and alkA promoters. In contrast, the unmethylated protein present in

  The outcome of DGK function will thus depend on the binding partners of each DGK isoform, and the effects that they exert can be quite different. A clear example of this concept has been demonstrated for the type IV DGKs, ζ and ι, which are structurally very similar but have opposing effects on Ras

  As the communications interface was developed by two separate organisations with differing software processes and tools, a modular approach to the safety case was deemed appropriate. The modular approach related the communications interface safety argument to the safety arguments for both the ACS an

  The cholinergic system has been shown to play a role in regulation of the inflammatory response [13] as well as in the influence of the metabolism of PCa cells [14]. The reduced activity of cholinesterase (ChoE) and the consequent increased amount of influenza a virus has been shown to lead to a cho

  Amphiphilic compounds lower interfacial tension and its biological production often results in a competitive environmental advantage (Darvishi et al., 2011). The reduction of interfacial tension can increase the biologically available surface areas resulting in increased metabolism of insoluble comp

  2020-05-12

  

  Repulsive interactions towards undesirable substrates are arguably a very efficient means to implement specificity [8]. In particular, it could be assumed that discrimination against a substrate that is larger than the cognate substrate may be achieved easily by restricting the active site and explo

  These studies established IAP proteins as dimeric RING E3 ligases, but did not account for the essential role of dimerization. In IAPs and related E3s, such as RNF4 and MDM2, dimerization not only depends on contacts from the core RING domain but also residues N- and C-terminal to the RING domain (B
