  Oxysterols as Key Players in Metabolic Syndrome? Obesity and sedentary lifestyle are on the rise and pose serious threats to people's health and wellbeing. Obesity is often associated with other pathologies and is one of the criteria included in the definition of metabolic syndrome (MetS) (see Gl

  The modification of proteins with the small 76-amino Nicotinic Acid receptor protein ubiquitin (Ub) plays a central role in many key cellular processes. Ubiquitylation of a target protein requires the concerted action of a cascade of three enzymes (Figure 1). The ubiquitin-activating enzyme (E1) ca

  Materials and methods Results Discussion Although autophagy is known to be implicated in the therapeutic effect of DNA alkylating agents such as MNNG [28], [29], [30], the molecular mechanisms underlying autophagy induced by MNNG remain largely elusive. In this study, we present evidence sh

  STRING protein interactions were used to highlight enzymes directly associated with DHODH (Fig. 10) (Szklarczyk et al., 2015). The reported protein-protein associations are primarily within the de novo nucleotide synthesis pathways (CAD, carbamoyl phosphate synthetase 1, uridine monophosphate synthe

  Recently, Schenck et al. [25] identified an active site asparagine 222 (N222) residue in the Glycine max TyrAp/PDH (GmPDH1) that is responsible for its prephenate substrate specificity. Mutating the single N222 into an acidic residue (i.e. aspartate, D) in the legume TyrAp/PDH shifted from prephenat

  Flexible alignment of 7-isopropylphenylaminobenzimidazole 16 with the lead γ-Secretase inhibitor IX 1 was performed using MOE. It was found that the aryl group of compound 16, exemplified as a yellow circle in Figure 2, overlapped well with the corresponding alkyl chain of compound 1 as well as the

  Amphiphilic compounds lower interfacial tension and its biological production often results in a competitive environmental advantage (Darvishi et al., 2011). The reduction of interfacial tension can increase the biologically available surface areas resulting in increased metabolism of insoluble comp

  In SLO-permeabilized human sperm, the AR elicited by calcium, persistently active Arf6 [41] and Rab3A, 8-pCPT-2′-O-Me-cAMP [8], diacylglycerol and a non-hydrolyzable analog [35], is sensitive to the PLC blocker U73122. Furthermore, 8-pCPT-2′-O-Me-cAMP elicits a calcium signal in non-permeabilized sp

  Our previous work has demonstrated that two glutamate residues (Glu-305 and Glu-331 in murine and human TPP II) in the active site are important for exopeptidase activity in mTPP II [17]. At least one of these, Glu-331, seems to form a salt bridge to the N-terminal amino group of the substrate, posi

  Our results indicate an OT-specific activation of PKR that inactivates eIF2a and may, by this means, reduce protein translation by utilizing only select sensors and mediators of the UPR (i.e., avoiding significant PERK activation). Interferon is a PKR activator [32] that temporarily subdues cellular

  Expression of EBI2 and its function for migration in vitro in T cells was recently reported (Chalmin et al., 2015, Hannedouche et al., 2011, Liu et al., 2011, Pereira et al., 2009). Pereira et al.
