RNA editing of human microRNAs
(2006)
BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short RNAs of around 22 nucleotides that regulate gene expression. The primary transcripts of miRNAs contain double-stranded RNA and are therefore potential substrates for adenosine to ...
Actin-myosin-based contraction is responsible for apoptotic nuclear disintegration.
(2005-01)
Membrane blebbing during the apoptotic execution phase results from caspase-mediated cleavage and activation of ROCK I. Here, we show that ROCK activity, myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation, MLC ATPase activity, and ...
Recurrent KRAS Codon 146 mutations in human colorectal cancer
(2006-08)
Recurrent KRAS Codon 146 mutations in human colorectal cancer An activating point mutation in codon 12 of the HRAS gene was the first somatic point mutation identified in a human cancer and established the role of somatic ...
