Distinct functions of POT1 at telomeres.
(Mol Cell Biol, 2008-09)
The mammalian protein POT1 binds to telomeric single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), protecting
chromosome ends from being detected as sites of DNA damage. POT1 is composed of an
N-terminal ssDNA-binding domain and a C-terminal protein ...
Pharmacological targeting of the mitochondrial phosphatase PTPMT1.
(J Pharmacol Exp Ther, 2010-05)
The dual-specificity protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) play integral roles in the
regulation of cell signaling. There is a need for new tools to study these phosphatases,
and the identification of inhibitors potentially ...
A novel, non-apoptotic role for Scythe/BAT3: a functional switch between the pro- and anti-proliferative roles of p21 during the cell cycle.
(PLoS One, 2012)
BACKGROUND: Scythe/BAT3 is a member of the BAG protein family whose role in apoptosis
has been extensively studied. However, since the developmental defects observed in
Bat3-null mouse embryos cannot be explained solely ...
A PK2/Bv8/PROK2 antagonist suppresses tumorigenic processes by inhibiting angiogenesis in glioma and blocking myeloid cell infiltration in pancreatic cancer.
(PLoS One, 2013)
Infiltration of myeloid cells in the tumor microenvironment is often associated with
enhanced angiogenesis and tumor progression, resulting in poor prognosis in many types
of cancer. The polypeptide chemokine PK2 (Bv8, PROK2) ...
