Features of programmed cell death in intact Xenopus oocytes and early embryos revealed by near-infrared fluorescence and real-time monitoring.
(Cell Death Differ, 2010-01)Factors influencing apoptosis of vertebrate eggs and early embryos have been studied in cell-free systems and in intact embryos by analyzing individual apoptotic regulators or caspase activation in static samples. A novel ... -
Incongruence between primary sequence data and the distribution of a mitochondrial atp1 group II intron among ferns and horsetails.
(Molecular phylogenetics and evolution, 2005-09)Using DNA sequence data from multiple genes (often from more than one genome compartment) to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships has become routine. Augmenting this approach with genomic structural characters (e.g., intron ... -
Individuals with mutations in XPNPEP3, which encodes a mitochondrial protein, develop a nephronophthisis-like nephropathy.
(J Clin Invest, 2010-03)The autosomal recessive kidney disease nephronophthisis (NPHP) constitutes the most frequent genetic cause of terminal renal failure in the first 3 decades of life. Ten causative genes (NPHP1-NPHP9 and NPHP11), whose products ... -
Pharmacological targeting of the mitochondrial phosphatase PTPMT1.
(2009)The dual specificity protein tyrosine phosphatases comprise the largest and most diverse group of protein tyrosine phosphatases and play integral roles in the regulation of cell signaling events. The dual specificity protein ... -
RanBP2 modulates Cox11 and hexokinase I activities and haploinsufficiency of RanBP2 causes deficits in glucose metabolism.
(PLoS Genet, 2006-10)The Ran-binding protein 2 (RanBP2) is a large multimodular and pleiotropic protein. Several molecular partners with distinct functions interacting specifically with selective modules of RanBP2 have been identified. Yet, ... -
Smac mimetic Birinapant induces apoptosis and enhances TRAIL potency in inflammatory breast cancer cells in an IAP-dependent and TNF-α-independent mechanism.
(Breast Cancer Res Treat, 2013-01)X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), the most potent mammalian caspase inhibitor, has been associated with acquired therapeutic resistance in inflammatory breast cancer (IBC), an aggressive subset of breast cancer ...
