  The combination of brequinar and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) has been evaluated to assess whether brequinar-induced uridine depletion would improve 5-FU activity. In cells, 5-FU is metabolized into FdUMP and inhibits thymidylate synthetase, which catalyzes the formation of thymidine monophosphate from deo

  2020-03-18

  

  PGE2 exerts its functions by binding to different receptors. Four different subtypes of PGE2 receptors are found in mammals and are designated as EP1-4. These are G-protein coupled receptors that belong to a family of seven rhodopsin-like transmembrane spanning receptors. They are structurally diffe

  Halogenases Enzymatic C–H activation leading to halogenation is another emerging area in biocatalysis [55,56]. Incorporation of halogen atoms during medicinal chemistry eff ;orts is a well-established practice, presenting an effective means to control the molecule’s bioactivity and physicochemical

  2020-03-18

  

  Since both the Ub and ISG15 systems are crucial for the innate immune response, many prokaryotic and viral pathogens have evolved ways to hijack them in order to create a “window-of-opportunity” for efficient replication. Several viral and bacterial proteins have been found to directly target these

  Kuo et al. (2006) Have shown that DAPK1 function in inhibiting microtubule (MT) assembly is through the activation of microtubule affinity-regulating kinases (MARK)/PAR-1 family kinases MARK1/2, which destabilize MT by phosphorylating tau and related MAP2/4. This relation with DAPK1 has demonstrated

  Introduction The dorsal periaqueductal gray matter (dPAG) is a midbrain site markedly involved in fear/anxiety-evoked responses as well as in nociception (see, for example, Bandler and Carrive, 1988, Deakin and Graeff, 1991, Fardin et al., 1984a, Fardin et al., 1984b, Litvin et al., 2007).

  SPR was used to measure biomolecular kinetic interactions between TERRA G-quadruplex and ligand in the present study. SPR is a widely used method, but cannot tell which specific type of interaction happened. Compounds with similar structures probably have similar mechanism of interaction, while comp

  2020-03-17

  

  Lymphocyte mobility and homing is modulated by the chemoattractant receptor subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) (Campbell et al., 2003, Rot and von Andrian, 2004). B cell migration and position are controlled to a large extent by the lymphoid chemokines CXCL13, CXCL12, CCL19, and CCL21

  2020-03-17

  

  To function as Ub-ligases, E3 proteins must interact with E2s. As compared to the extensive studies on E3s, functional studies on E2s are relatively rudimentary in higher plants. We previously reported that there are 48 genes encoding Ub-conjugating (UBC) fold-containing putative E2 proteins in the

  Introduction O6-Methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) is a DNA-repair enzyme that specifically transfers alkyl adducts from the O6 position of guanine to the cysteine residue (Cys145) in its active site. In cancer cells, this ability of MGMT disrupts the cytotoxic actions of alkylating antic
