Insects, like vertebrates, express iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) that may regulate proteins in cellular iron storage and energy metabolism. Two mRNAs, an unspliced form of ferritin H mRNA and succinate dehydrogenase subunit b (SDHb) mRNA, are known to co ...
Current advanced molecular biology techniques provide gene expression (mRNA) levels of selected genes of an organism. In such aggregate, the mRNA level of one gene is mediated by the presence of specific proteins and metabolites produced by other genes. Ge ...
Bile acids regulate nongenomic actions through the activation of TGR5, a membrane receptor that is G protein-coupled to the induction of adenylate cyclase. In this work, a training set of 43 bile acid derivatives is used to develop a molecular interaction ...
The phosphoinositides (PIs) are membrane phospholipids that actively operate at membrane-cytosol interfaces through the recruitment of a number of effector proteins. In this context, each of the seven different PI species represents a topological determina ...
Many macromolecules in the cell function by forming multi-component assemblies. We have applied the technique of small angle neutron scattering to study a nucleic acid-protein complex and a multi-protein complex. The results illustrate the versatility and ...
Central to the biological function of microtubules. is their ability to modify their length which occurs by addition and removal of subunits at the ends of the polymer, both in vivo and in vitro. This dynamic behavior is strongly influenced by temperature. ...
The inhibitors of growth (ING) family of tumor suppressors consists of five homologous proteins involved in chromatin remodeling. They form part of different acetylation and deacetylation complexes and are thought to direct them to specific regions of the ...

TGR5, a metabotropic receptor that is G-protein-coupled to the induction of adenylate cyclase, has been recognized as the molecular link connecting bile acids to the control of energy and glucose homeostasis. With the aim of disclosing novel selective modu ...
Phosphorelay systems are important mediators of signal transduction during bacterial adaptation to new environments. Previously we described the vieSAB operon, encoding a putative three-protein component phosphorelay involved in regulating Vibrio cholerae ...
