Identification of Y589 and Y599 in the juxamembrane domain of Flt3 as ligand-induced autophosphorylation sites involved in binding of Src family kinases and the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP2

A combination of access to preassociation sites and local accumulation tendency in the direct vicinity of G-N7 controls the rate of platination of single-stranded DNA

Adduct formation between cationic reagents and targets on DNA are facilitated by the ability of DNA to attract cations to its surface. The electrostatic interactions likely provide the basis for the documented preference exhibited by cisplatin and related compounds for nuclear DNA over other cellular constituents. As an extension of a previous communication, we here present an investigation illust

Identification of novel phosphorylation sites in hormone-sensitive lipase that are phosphorylated in response to isoproterenol and govern activation properties in vitro

Identification of Noncollagenous Sites Encoding Specific Interactions and Quaternary Assembly of alpha 3 alpha 4 alpha 5(IV) Collagen IMPLICATIONS FOR ALPORT GENE THERAPY

Escherichia coli RNase E and RNase G cleave a Bacillus subtilis transcript at the same site in a structure-dependent manner

The decay of Bacillus subtilis aprE leader-lacZ mRNA was examined in Escherichia coli wild-type and in mutants deficient in RNase E, RNase G, or both. Two versions of the mRNA were studied: the wild-type mRNA, which has a stem-loop at the 5' end, and a mutant mRNA, with a single-stranded 5' end. The half-life of both transcripts was determined by RNase E, the half-life of the mutant transcript bei

Sst II polymorphic sites in the promoter region of the human cystatin C gene

Wound classification is more important than site of ulceration in the outcome of diabetic foot ulcers

The dorsal vagal complex as a site for cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript peptide to suppress gastric emptying.

Cocaine- and amphetamine-regulated transcript-derived peptides (CARTp) and corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) alter feeding and gastrointestinal function after central administration, and the gastric inhibitory effects are mediated through CRF. We hypothesized that dorsal hindbrain effects of CARTp on gastric emptying are mediated by the vagus nerve and that the dorsal vagal complex (DVC) is a s

Autoimmune responses against the apo B-100 LDL receptor-binding site protect against arterial accumulation of lipids in LDL receptor deficient mice.

Background: Oxidation of LDL is associated with generation of autoantibodies against a large number of different aldehyde-modified peptide sequences in apo B-100. Autoantibodies recognizing peptide sequences in the LDL receptor-binding region of apo B-100 could potentially affect both cholesterol metabolism and atherosclerosis. The aim of the present study was to determine physiological effects of

Identification of phosphorylation sites within the SH3 domains of Tec family tyrosine kinases

Tec family protein tyrosine kinases (TFKs) play a central role in hematopoietic cellular signaling. Initial activation takes place through specific tyrosine phosphorylation situated in the activation loop. Further activation occurs within the SH3 domain via a transphosphorylation mechanism, which for Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) affects tyrosine 223. We found that TFKs phosphorylate preferential
