  The stability and function of the HIF-1α protein are affected by many post-translational modifications (PTMs), including hydroxylation, acetylation, ubiquitination and SUMOylation [[29], [30], [31]]. It has been shown that HIF-1α stability is regulated by LSD1 [25]; in particular, the Set9 histone m

  2021-12-27

  

  Different crystal structures of both HOs were reported and showed that the three-dimensional structures of proteins (HO-1: PDB code 1N45, HO-2: PDB code 2QPP) are predominantly in an α-helical conformation, with the heme packed between two helices (distal and proximal), and present a remarkable stru

  On the other hand, the single-stranded RNA flavivirus hepatitis C virus (HCV), causes type C hepatitis, which often leads to liver cirrhosis, hepatic failure and hepatocellular carcinoma. Its genome of about 9.6kb encodes the structural proteins C, E1, E2, and the nonstructural proteins NS2, NS3, NS

  Substrate Interactions Outside of the Catalytic Cleft As for other types of protein–protein interactions, kinase–substrate docking interactions can occur through large binding interfaces or through recognition of short linear sequence motifs. For kinases with a large number of substrates, the use

  2021-12-27

  

  The fact that GSK-3 recognition of its substrate involves pre-phosphorylation supports the rational for using synthetic phosphorylated peptides as substrate competitive inhibitors [57]. Phosphorylated peptides derived from the N-terminal pseudosubstrate sequence of GSK-3β were very weak inhibitors o

  2021-12-27

  

  Trypanosomatid GLO2 enzymes are monomeric and contain a zinc–iron binuclear metal center (Irsch and Krauth-Siegel, 2004, Silva et al., 2008), similar to all other glyoxalases II. As mentioned, in T. brucei there are two GLO2 genes but only one encodes an enzyme with glyoxalase II activity (Irsch and

  2021-12-27

  

  Introduction Adaptations in the metabolism of cancers contribute to tumor survival and growth and present opportunities to develop novel therapeutic strategies (Kelloff et al., 2005, Som et al., 1980). In particular, glutamine metabolism plays such an important role in cancer growth that a phenomen

  This data is in accordance with our recent results on the influence of cholesterol-depleting agent methyl-β-cyclodextrin on platelets (Borisova et al., 2011a). Dissipation of the proton electrochemical gradient of secretory granules by methyl-β-cyclodextrin did not evoke the release of endogenous gl

  Due to the versatility of the ghrelin system and its multiple functions, dysregulation in some of the components of the ghrelin system, such as ghrelin, GOAT, and GHSR, might lead to pathogenesis of many endocrine-related diseases, including obesity, short stature, cancer, inflammatory, and cardiova

  Conclusions There are a number of factors that affect the transit of solutes through gap junction channels. Fig. 4 provides a simplified illustration of those factors. First is the cytoplasmic vestibule through which all permeable solutes must pass to gain access to the pore. In an equivalent cir

  Given the important role of Cx43 in maintaining the function of gap junctions, to investigate the effects of stress on Cx43 may be an important step towards understanding the mechanism underlying CUS-induced dysfunction of gap junctions. Corticosterone (CORT), as an important stress hormone, has bee

  However, Gingrich and Hen reported that absence of the gene at all stages of ontogenesis of mice may interfere with the normal developmental program and/or the organism may undergo changes in other systems to compensate for gene absence (46). In addition, potentially altered maternal behavior of GPR
