Conventionally, biological signal transduction networks are analysed using experimental and theoretical methods to describe specific protein components, interactions, and biochemical processes and to model network behavior under various conditions. While t ...
Purpose: Apoptosis is known to play a key role in cell death after retinal ischemia. However, little is known about the kinetics of the signaling pathways involved and their contribution to this process. The aim of this study was to determine whether chang ...
HypA and HypB are maturation proteins required for incorporation of nickel into the hydrogenase large subunit. To examine the functions of these proteins in nickel insertion, the hybF gene, which is a homolog of hypA essential for maturation of hydrogenase ...
Buruli ulcer is an emerging human disease caused by infection with a slow-growing pathogen, Mycobacterium ulcerans, that produces mycolactone, a cytotoxin with immunomodulatory properties. The disease is associated with wetlands in certain tropical countri ...
Light absorption by the visual pigment rhodopsin leads to vision via a complex signal transduction pathway that is initiated by the ultrafast and highly efficient photoreaction of its chromophore, the retinal protonated Schiff base (RPSB). Here, we investi ...
Detection of viral nucleic acids is central to antiviral immunity. Recently, DAI/ZBP1 (DNA-dependent activator of IRFs/Z-DNA binding protein 1) was identified as a cytoplasmic DNA sensor and shown to activate the interferon regulatory factor (IRF) and nucl ...
The present invention relates to methods of transferring a label from novel substrates to O-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferases (AGT) and O-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase fusion proteins, and to novel substrates suitable in such methods. Proteins o ...
The tyrosine kinase Bcr-Abl causes chronic myeloid leukemia and is the cognate target of tyrosine kinase inhibitors like imatinib. We have charted the protein-protein interaction network of Bcr-Abl by a 2-pronged approach. Using a monoclonal antibody we ha ...
The in vivo and in vitro labeling of fusion proteins with synthetic mols. capable of probing and controlling protein function has the potential to become an important method in functional genomics and proteomics. We have recently introduced an approach for ...
O6-substituted guanine derivs. are described for use as substrates for O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferases (AGT) that can be used to label the enzyme or fusion proteins contg. it. Proteins of interest are incorporated into an AGT fusion protein, the AGT ...
