The data from drug screening in P. berghei (Fig. 3D) provide proof of concept that chemogenomic profiling can be accomplished in P. berghei in the same manner as P. falciparum, in that significant increases in the EC50 ratio were found only for antifolate drugs in the parasite with attenuated TgDHFR

2020-10-22
High throughput screening (HTS) of the AstraZeneca Sodium Orthovanadate synthesis collection was conducted and identified oxadiazole amide () originating from a kinase directed screening library (although inactive against a panel of kinases). This compound had moderate potency as a DGAT-1 inhibitor

Introduction Biocatalysis can be used to synthesize chiral building blocks, such as monomers for polymer materials, and precursors for pharmaceuticals [[1], [2], [3], [4]]. Enzymes are very suitable for catalyzing reactions with high enantioselectivity to obtain chiral products. For instance, alc

2020-10-22
The fibrillogenesis process of collagen is understood to initiate in the extracellular space near the plasma membrane where secretory vesicles form regions of deep invagination. However, it is not clear how and when collagen-binding proteins interact with collagen molecules during fibrillogenesis or

2020-10-22
Examination of Wnt signaling via, for example, complexes of frizzled (Fz) and lipoprotein-receptor-related protein (LRP) receptors has been hindered by difficulties in producing Wnt ligands due to their inherent hydrophobicity [20]. This bottleneck was recently bypassed by constructing highly solubl

This study was aimed to assess a number of esterase activities, namely erythrocyte AChE, plasma BuChE and BeChE, and serum PON1 towards a number of substrates, as well as the major genetic polymorphisms of BCHE and PON1in a cohort of greenhouse workers exposed to low toxicity pesticides under an int

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disorder of the Calpain Inhibitor XII which is considered a leading cause of dementia and affects 20–30 million people worldwide. Presently, a suitable treatment and prevention strategy against AD is hardly available. Various studi

An additional difference in ACC-1 between H. contortus and C. elegans is the results from the oocyte expression experiments. Here we found that unlike Cel-ACC-1 that was reported to form a functional homomeric channel (Putrenko et al., 2005), Hco-ACC-1 does not. However, we have observed that in gen

2020-10-22
The transcription factor CREB has been extensively studied for its role in hippocampus-dependent learning and memory (West et al., 2002, Lonze and Ginty, 2002). Previous research has demonstrated that the phosphorylation of CREB at Ser133, performed by the ERK1/2 signaling pathway, initiates a casca

Materials and Methods Acknowledgements Introduction The discoidin domain receptors, DDR1 and DDR2, are two closely related receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) that contain a discoidin (DS) homology domain in their extracellular regions. The DDRs were initially discovered by homology cloning ba

In contrast, crystal structures of the oxyester-linked Ubc13 and UbcH5b conjugates (Eddins et al., 2006, Sakata et al., 2010), and the NMR structure of the disulfide-linked UbcH8 conjugate (Serniwka & Shaw, 2009), revealed distinct open conformations (Fig. 10.3). In part, differences in the position

Reports on the participation of NDH2 along with other respiratory complexes in the formation of a large supercomplex (Grandier-Vazeille et al. 2001) or even a respirosome-like structure in S. cerevisiae mitochondria (Matus-Ortega et al. 2015) are very intriguing. Similarly, in Y. lypolytica mitochon

DDR2 plays a crucial role in regulating a wide variety of fundamental cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, and adhesion [17], [28], [29], [30]. The authors revealed compromised cell migration in DDR2-silenced fibroblasts exposed to Ang II, most likely due to the loss o

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

The classification of CK2 substrates based on active enzyme subunit composition provides a framework for understanding the regulatory function of CK2β subunit. However, few experiments exist that functionally explore such classification [17], [18], [19], [20], [21], [22], [23]; this reflects practic
