2021-04-13
Introduction Protein ubiquitination is a posttranslational modification that plays a major role in almost all cellular processes in eukaryotes (Hochstrasser, 2009; Komander & Rape, 2012). It involves the covalent attachment of ubiquitin (Ub) via its C-terminal glycine carboxylate to a primary amine

Valproic Benidipine HCl (VPA) is a first-line treatment for epilepsy and bipolar disorder, although its therapeutic mechanism of action is not fully understood. Considerable evidence suggests that VPA can act through the GABAergic system, NMDA receptors, and/or sodium channels (for review, see Lösc

— Since these first results, Δ1-KSTD activity has been identified in many other microorganisms, albeit sometimes with different substrate preferences. For instance, Comamonas testosteroni ATCC 11996 (formerly Pseudomonas testosteroni) is active on several steroid substrates, but it cannot use 11β-h

It is well established that Shp-2 can function as a substrate for several RTK, such as PDGF or EGFR [23], [36]. To test whether DDR1 recognizes Shp-2 as its substrate, we overexpressed a catalytically inactive Shp-2 mutant together with DDR1b in 293 cells [31]. Immunoprecipitation of Shp-2 followed

Discussion In depression, an activation of the inflammation process and production of cytokines (including chemotactic cytokines – chemokines) and their receptors may occur due to the stimulation of the immune system. One of the earliest studied and described cytokines in depression is interleuki

Study 1 Study 2: meta-analyses Discussion Ten studies have examined the associations of 5-HTTLPR and COMT Val158Met with alexithymia. However, the findings were mixed. In this study, we found that neither the 5-HTTLPR nor COMT Val158Met is associated with alexithymia. The previous findings

The present study intended to characterize the predominant cholinesterasic form found in tissues of three tropical fish species, namely Phalloceros harpagos Lucinda, 2008 (common name guaru), Pterygoplichthys pardalis Castelnau, 1855 (common name cascudo) and Astyanax altiparanae Garutti and Britski

It is common for plants that are deficient in P to invest in their roots in order to maximise P uptake from the soil. Here, plants grown in soil amended with OA had a higher root biomass:shoot Spautin-1 ratio compared with plants in the INORG-P treatment. Additionally, greater allocation of C to roo

In summary, this is the first report describing the enzymatic characteristics, binding activity and localization of T. solium enolase. Here we demonstrate that Tseno gene possesses classical features of enolase family with highly conserved active sites, Mg2+ binding and plasminogen-binding motifs. T

Recent reports revealed that CSE affects the endothelial cells of various tissues like kidney, liver, heart including xanthine oxidase inhibitor [26,30]. The damage of brain endothelial cells enhances the progress of cognitive dysfunction due to the accumulation of toxic free bio-radicals and activa
