Mesoporous silicates (MPS) provide a means of immobilizing proteins and enzymes in a stable environment while retaining physiological function. A systematic methodology of assessing the potential of immobilising a given protein on to MPS has been developed ...
Purpose: Discs large (dlg), scribble (scrib), and lethal giant larvae (lgl) are major suppressor genes in Drosophila melanogaster. They encode proteins that regulate cell polarity and cell proliferation in Drosophila and mammals. However, their basic oncog ...
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) DNA, by mimicking a stalled replication fork, provokes a DNA damage response that can arrest cells in the G2/M phase of the cell-cycle. This response depends strictly on DNA damage signaling kinases ATR and Chk1. Here, we used ...
The antitumor activity of the organometallic ruthenium(II)-arene mixed phosphine complexes, [Ru(h6-p-cymene)Cl(PTA)(PPh3)]BF4 1b and [Ru(h6-C6H5CH2CH2OH)Cl(PTA)(PPh3)]BF4 2b (PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane), have been evaluated in vitro and compare ...
The human KIN17 protein is an essential nuclear protein conserved from yeast to human and expressed ubiquitously in mammals. Suppression of Rts2, the yeast equivalent of gene KIN17, renders the cells unviable, and silencing the human KIN17 gene slows cell ...
Gold(III) compds. constitute an emerging class of biol. active substances, of special interest as potential anticancer agents. During the past decade a no. of structurally diverse gold(III) complexes were reported to be acceptably stable under physiol.-lik ...
Self-organizing bio-inspired systems borrow three structural principles characteristic of living organisms: multicellular architecture, cellular division, and cellular differentiation. Implemented in silicon according to these principles, our cellular syst ...
Recently, a new method for the specific covalent labeling of fusion proteins in vitro and in living cells has been developed. This method is based on the unusual mechanism of a DNA repair protein: the O6-alkylguanine DNA alkyltransferase (AGT). In addition ...
The DNA and RNA helicase UPF1 is well known for its central role in Nonsense Mediated RNA Decay (NMD), which promotes degradation of mRNAs containing premature stop codons. However, we have recently demonstrated that human UPF1 is also essential for DNA re ...
The eukaryotic nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway degrades mRNAs carrying premature stop codons (PTC). In humans, NMD depends on the RNA- and DNA-dependent 5'-3' helicase UPF1 and six other gene products referred to as SMG1, UPF2, UPF3, EST1A/SMG6, ...
