The bri1 Suppressor 1 (BSU1) family mediates the brassinosteroid (BR) signal transduction pathway that orchestrates a wide range of developmental and physiological responses in plants. In Arabidopsis, BSU1 family members ...

Objective: cAMP and mature promoting factor (MPF) play critical roles during the maturation of mammalian oocytes. The aim of this study was to produce the offspring from denuded oocytes (DOs) in mice by regulating cAMP and ...

Background: Parkinson disease (PD) is caused by selective cell death of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra. An early onset form of PD, autosomal recessive juvenile parkinsonism has been associated with a mutation ...

Using site-directed mutagenesis technique, I havereplaced serine 285 and serine 292 with the alanine,and assesed the binding of agonist and signalingsuch as the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase activity.I have found that ...

Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), a family of serine/threonine protein phosphatases, plays an important role in balancing the phosphorylation status of cellular proteins for regulating diverse biological functions in eukaryotic ...

Allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is an allergen-specific T-cell-mediated inflammatory response, albeit with unclear pathogenesis. Exosomes are nanoscale extracellular vesicles secreted by several cell types and widely ...

Protein phosphatase 4 (PP4), one of serine/threonine phosphatases, is involved in many critical cellular pathways, including DNA damage response (DNA repair, cell cycle regulation, and apoptosis), tumorigenesis, cell ...

The Iro protein is a member of the HiPIP family with the [Fe4S4] cluster for electron transfer. Many reports proposed that the conserved aromatic residues might be responsible for the stability of the iron-sulfur cluster ...

The functional Schr odinger representation developed earlier for elementary particle physics has been rarely employed for the study of condensed matter and statistical physics. In the present study, we study the two-dimensional ...

The common environmental contaminant3-methylcholanthrene (3MC) is found in cigarettesmoke and is produced by incomplete combustion offat, wood and coal. 3MC is a poly aromatic hydrocar-bon that interacts with an aryl ...
