  2020-04-17

  

  The modification of proteins with the small 76-amino salicin protein ubiquitin (Ub) plays a central role in many key cellular processes. Ubiquitylation of a target protein requires the concerted action of a cascade of three enzymes (Figure 1). The ubiquitin-activating enzyme (E1) catalyzes the form

  Introduction Amphetamine (AMPH), methamphetamine (MA), and 3,4-ethylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) are widely abused psychoactive substances, with the basic chemical structure of phenylethylamine [1]. The abuse of these drugs is associated with psychostimulant, anorectic and hallucinogenic properti

  Colony stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF-1R or cFMS) is a type III receptor tyrosine kinase. It is activated by binding with CSF-1 and IL-34, which stimulates differentiation, proliferation, survival and migration of monocyte-macrophage lineage cells., , , Also, macrophages produce inflammatory me

  2020-04-17

  

  Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disorder of the BIX 02188 synthesis which is considered a leading cause of dementia and affects 20–30 million people worldwide. Presently, a suitable treatment and prevention strategy against AD is hardly available. Various studie

  Currently, phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors are used widely as the first- line oral treatment for erectile dysfunction of varying causes. Radical prostatectomy for the treatment of prostate cancer is frequently associated with erectile dysfunction, and this type of erectile dysfunction is

  Halogenases Enzymatic C–H activation leading to halogenation is another emerging area in biocatalysis [55,56]. Incorporation of halogen atoms during medicinal chemistry eff ;orts is a well-established practice, presenting an effective means to control the molecule’s bioactivity and physicochemical

  2020-04-16

  

  A study profiling chemokine expression in LCLs revealed high expression levels of CCR6, CCR7, and CCR10 and low expression of CXCR4 and CXCR5 in EBV immortalized cells. Accordingly, LCLs showed a markedly increase in migration in response to the ligands of CCR6 (CCL20), CC7 (CCL21), and CCR10 (CCL28

  Conclusion In conclusion, DNA methylation is a major epigenetic mark, which regulates temporal and spatial expression of the testicular genes required for normal spermatogenesis process. There are two types of methylation, maintenance and de novo methylation, which are catalysed by DNMT1, DNMT3A

  2020-04-16

  

  Experimentally measured DGAT activity was first reported by Weiss et al. (1960) and several different types of DGAT enzyme have since been described in plants [12,41,42]. As recently as 2011 there appeared to be just two DGAT enzymes both in plants and in other eukaryotes, namely DGAT1 and DGAT2 [43

  Since its inception, ADEPT approach has been widely reported by many groups using a variety of enzymes and prodrugs (see reviews) [12], [14]. Both mammalian and non-mammalian enzymes have been utilised. Of the mammalian variety, human β-glucuronidase in combination with many prodrugs [17], [18] and

  The elastase-induced injury model has been shown to produce airspace enlargement, and increases in lung volume and compliance that are similar to those observed in human patients (Hantos et al., 2008, Hamakawa et al., 2011). Thus, this model, which has been used to study emphysema, should be adequat

  Regulation of cadherin switching The downregulation of E-cadherin during cadherin switching is induced by multiple mechanisms, including methylation of the E-cadherin promoter and signaling pathways that activate E-cadherin-suppressing transcription factors [[61], [62], [63]].
