  The assembly and maturation of invadopodia can be initiated by chemical stimuli such as the epidermal growth factor (EGF), as well as the mechanical signals from extracellular matrix (ECM). Upon binding, EGF activates the EGF receptor (EGFR), which further activates several intracellular signaling p

  Introduction Nucleic acids are polyanionic and their negatively charged nucleotides allow the binding of cationic dyes, such as acridine orange (3,6-dimethylaminoacridine). Acridine orange (AO) was first synthesized in 1889, but its ability to bind nucleic acids was only reported in 1940, with grea

  Our results indicate a deregulation of DNA methylation machinery during seed development in apomixis. Since DRM2 is targeted loci through an RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM) pathway involving 24-nt siRNAs (Stroud et al., 2014, Law and Jacobsen, 2010) and differentially expressed between apomict a

  Experimental section Author contributions Acknowledgements Introduction Many 822 in cells are sequential enzymatic reactions where the product of one enzyme serves as the substrate of a second enzyme (1, 2). Experimental evidence suggests that some of these consecutive enzyme-catalyzed

  2020-09-10

  

  P4H is a nonheme iron(II) dioxygenase that uses O2 and α-ketoglutarate as co-substrates (Fig. 1A). The three-dimensional structure of mammalian P4H is unknown. We reasoned that an electrophilic analog of α-ketoglutarate could serve as an irreversible inhibitor of the enzyme and, hence, a useful prob

  Through the process of alternative splicing, the IKZF1 gene is capable of encoding a large number of Ikaros isoforms (Molnar et al., 1996). Some of these isoforms were shown to have distinct functions (Li et al., 2011, Ronni et al., 2007). Ikaros protein contains four zinc fingers at the N-terminus

  The present study is the first time to investigate the effect of piperine on intestinal sterol transporters and enzymes in the small intestine. NPC1L1 is a sterol transporter responsible for taking up cholesterol from the lumen to enterocytes (Davis et al., 2004). ACAT2 is an enzyme, which esterifie

  During the entire life of individual, articular chondrocyte as well as subchondral bone receives acute or chronic stress. Joints homeostasis is maintained by biomechanical stress, as rapid loss of proteoglycan in joints occurs due to immobilization or disuse. These osteophytes are fibrocartilage cap

  Bmp7 products, such as 7–9 (Fig. 2), are persistent pollutants that accumulate in the marine environment and can potentially be transferred to the human population via our trophic connections to the oceans (Wan et al., 2009). In addition to potentially addressing the mechanistic curiosities describe

  The importance of G1–S phase progression to the formation of malignant tumors has been highlighted by the high incidence of aberrations in the genes involved in this progression in a wide variety of tumors. p27Kip1 is a member of the Cip/Kip family of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors (CKI). Its ro

  Interestingly, ASV-30 infusion in the dRN of saline pre-treated rats had no effect on anxiety-like behaviors. This result may be due to the saline pre-treated group exhibiting relatively low levels of anxiety-like behaviors (when compared to saline pre-treated rat of the first experiment that were n
