  We also identified Ubc13 as a functional E2 for LNX1 and determined the complex structure of LNX1–Ubc13~Ub, which depicts the first step of the ubiquitination process (Fig. 3a.). Comparing structural alignment of the RNF4 RING: Ubc13~Ub: Ube2V2 complex (PDB code 5AIU) [33] and the RNF4:Ubc13~Ub comp

  Results and Discussion Experimental Procedures Acknowledgments The ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) is important for biological processes such as protein degradation and protein function regulation. In general, poly-ubiquitinated proteins are degraded by proteasomes, and some proteins ac

  The nuclear receptor related-1 protein, Nurr1 (NR4A2), is a transcription factor that regulates the Fmoc-Val-OH sale of genes critical for the development, maintenance, and survival of dopaminergic neurons (Alavian et al., 2014, Decressac et al., 2013, Dong et al., 2016, Jankovic et al., 2005, John

  The central role of DNA-PK in the NHEJ NHEJ can be divided in several steps (Fig. 1A): 1) recognition and binding of Ku at each ends of the DSB following by the assembly of the DNA-PK at the break points and bridging; 2) phosphorylation of the DNA ends by DNA-PKcs; 3) ligation of the ends by DNA

  Against this backdrop, we set out to identify synthetic and endogenous ligands that bind directly to and regulate the activity of Nurr1. Owing to the pivotal role Nurr1 plays in producing and processing dopamine, and the need for neurons to tightly regulate dopamine levels, we postulated that the re

  Our recent discovery (M.P., H.R., A.S.) of a highly selective and in vivo active DDR1 small-molecule inhibitor provides evidence that DDR1 is a druggable pharmaceutical target, and some details of our efforts are provided below. To avoid the repurposing of known kinase inhibitor structural motifs, w

  Accumulated evidence indicates that apelin plays a protective role in ischemic stroke, contributing to post-stroke recovery (Yang et al., 2014; Chen et al., 2015; Xin et al., 2015; Yan et al., 2015). Apelin gene (APLN) encodes prepro-apelin with 77 amino acids, while the C-terminal 23 DZNep are 100

  Two additional hydrogen-bonds are formed by the -substituted methoxy-group with Ser and Asp. Ser exerts the role of a gate keeper in CK1: Entry of the ATP in the binding-site causes a conformational change into the closed form by Ser, which locks the binding-site and prevents ATP-diffusion out of th

  Impulsive burying and freezing behaviors in response to aversive stimuli may represent attempts to avoid novel and/or aversive stimuli. These behaviors can be assessed utilizing the marble burying and conditioned fear tasks, respectively. For example, Wistar rats in proestrus and ovariectomized rats

  Here, we discuss implications of several major families of RING-type E3 ubiquitin ligases (MDM, Cullin, GRAIL, TRAF, TRIM) as targets in inflammation and immunity, and provide insights into potential small molecule interventions to mediate the cellular responses (summarized in Table 1). We briefly c

  Introduction Coping with DNA damage is possible thanks to surveillance mechanisms (checkpoints), that detect the problem and promote its solution [1], [2], and to repair and tolerance pathways that remove the lesions or reduce the damage consequences [3], [4]. Failures in these processes have a h

  Experimental All starting materials and reagents were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich, Merck and Loba Chemie. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) was performed on silica gel G60 F254 (Merck) plates and eluted with the mobile phase n-hexane: ethyl acetate (70:30%v/v). Melting points were recorded on auto

  The α3/α4/α5(IV)-chains of mature GBM are built exclusively by podocytes (not by endothelial cells) (Abrahamson et al., 2009), placing the podocytes into the focus of GBM-diseases such as Alport syndrome. Alport syndrome (AS) is caused by mutations in the COL4A3, 4 or 5 genes coding for the α3/α4/α5

  Prostaglandins (PGs) are lipid mediators that exhibit a variety of physiological properties by interacting specific G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) [10]. PGD2 is synthesized from PGH2 through two distinct PGD synthases; lipocalin-type PGD synthase (L-PGDS) and hematopoietic PGD synthase (H-PGDS)

  Several mechanisms are implicated in lipid-induced insulin resistance in muscle, including oxidative stress (Koves et al., 2008, Zhang et al., 2011, Muoio and Neufer, 2012). Mitochondrion is a major source of ROS production. The oxidation of pyruvate and fatty Gadodiamide yielding acetyl-CoA occurs
