Characterization of sugar binding by the mannose receptor family member, Endo180.
(AMER SOC BIOCHEMISTRY MOLECULAR BIOLOGY INC, 2002-12-27)
Members of the mannose receptor family, the mannose receptor, the phospholipase A(2) receptor, DEC-205, and Endo180, contain multiple C-type lectin-like domains (CTLDs) within a single polypeptide. In addition, at their N ...
Origin licensing requires ATP binding and hydrolysis by the MCM replicative helicase.
(CELL PRESS, 2014-09-04)
Loading of the six related Minichromosome Maintenance (MCM) proteins as head-to-head double hexamers during DNA replication origin licensing is crucial for ensuring once-per-cell-cycle DNA replication in eukaryotic cells. ...
Redox Signaling by the RNA Polymerase III TFIIB-Related Factor Brf2.
(CELL PRESS, 2015-12-03)
TFIIB-related factor 2 (Brf2) is a member of the family of TFIIB-like core transcription factors. Brf2 recruits RNA polymerase (Pol) III to type III gene-external promoters, including the U6 spliceosomal RNA and selenocysteine ...
An atypical LIR motif within UBA5 (ubiquitin like modifier activating enzyme 5) interacts with GABARAP proteins and mediates membrane localization of UBA5.
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2019-04-16)
Short linear motifs, known as LC3-interacting regions (LIRs), interact with mactoautophagy/autophagy modifiers (Atg8/LC3/GABARAP proteins) via a conserved universal mechanism. Typically, this includes the occupancy of 2 ...
PP1 and PP2A Use Opposite Phospho-dependencies to Control Distinct Processes at the Kinetochore.
(CELL PRESS, 2019-08-20)
PP1 and PP2A-B56 are major serine/threonine phosphatase families that achieve specificity by colocalizing with substrates. At the kinetochore, however, both phosphatases localize to an almost identical molecular space and ...
Allergen Delivery Inhibitors: Characterisation of Potent and Selective Inhibitors of Der p 1 and Their Attenuation of Airway Responses to House Dust Mite Allergens.
(MDPI, 2018-10-15)
Group 1 allergens of house dust mites (HDM) are globally significant triggers of allergic disease. They are considered as initiator allergens because their protease activity enables the development of allergy to a spectrum ...
Insertion of the Biogenesis Factor Rei1 Probes the Ribosomal Tunnel during 60S Maturation.
(CELL PRESS, 2016-01-14)
Eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis depends on several hundred assembly factors to produce functional 40S and 60S ribosomal subunits. The final phase of 60S subunit biogenesis is cytoplasmic maturation, which includes the ...
RavN is a member of a previously unrecognized group of Legionella pneumophila E3 ubiquitin ligases.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2018-02-01)
The eukaryotic ubiquitylation machinery catalyzes the covalent attachment of the small protein modifier ubiquitin to cellular target proteins in order to alter their fate. Microbial pathogens exploit this post-translational ...
Cloning, purification and structure determination of the HIV integrase-binding domain of lens epithelium-derived growth factor.
(INT UNION CRYSTALLOGRAPHY, 2018-03-01)
Lens epithelium-derived growth factor (LEDGF)/p75 is the dominant binding partner of HIV-1 integrase in human cells. The crystal structure of the HIV integrase-binding domain (IBD) of LEDGF has been determined in the absence ...
Evidence for a novel overlapping coding sequence in POLG initiated at a CUG start codon.
(BMC, 2020-03-06)
BACKGROUND: POLG, located on nuclear chromosome 15, encodes the DNA polymerase γ(Pol γ). Pol γ is responsible for the replication and repair of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). Pol γ is the only DNA polymerase found in mitochondria ...
