Regulation of activin type I receptor function by phosphorylation of residues outside the GS domain
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 1997-12-29)
The uncharged surface features surrounding the active site of Escherichia coli DsbA are conserved and are implicated in peptide binding
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory PressWiley Periodicals, Inc., 1997-06)
DsbA is a protein‐folding catalyst from the periplasm of Escherichia coli that interacts with newly translocated polypeptide substrate and catalyzes the formation of disulfide bonds in these secreted proteins. The precise ...
Isolation of a novel plant lectin with an unusual specificity from Calystegia sepium
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Chapman and Hall ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-01)
A novel plant lectin has been isolated from the rhizomes of Calystegia sepium (hedge bindweed) and partially characterized. The lectin is a dimeric protein composed of two identical non-covalently linked subunits of 16kDa. ...
Development and characterization of a biodegradable polyphosphate
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1997-01)
A biodegradable polyphosphate polymer (M n = 18,000, M w /M n = 3.2) matrix system was developed as a potential delivery vehicle for growth factors. As a model system, release of recombinant human osteogenic protein-1 ...
Differential effect of glucose deprivation on MAPK activation in drug sensitive human breast carcinoma MCF-7 and multidrug resistant MCF-7/ADR cells
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-05)
We have investigated the effect of glucose deprivation treatment on the activation of mitogen activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in the drug-sensitive human breast carcinoma cells (MCF-7) and its drug resistant variant ...
Protein Kinase Inhibitors Block Neurite Outgrowth from Explants of Goldfish Retina
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-10)
A role for protein phosphorylation in the process of neurite outgrowth has been inferred from many studies of the effects of protein kinase inhibitors and activators on cultured neurotumor cells and primary neuronal cells ...
Application of membrane-based preferential transport to whole broth processing
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1997-08-20)
Preferential transport in adsorptive membranes can be used to selectively remove biochemicals directly from fermentation broths. During preferential transport, an adsorbing solute is selectively transported across the ...
HLA class II haplotype and sequence analysis support a role for DQ in narcolepsy
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1997-09)
A systematic haplotype and sequencing analysis of the HLA -DR and - DQ region in patients with narcolepsy was performed. Five new (CA) n microsatellite markers were generated and positioned on the physical map across the ...
Preliminary assessment of fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron mission tomography in patients with bladder cancer
(Springer-Verlag, 1997-06)
The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of imaging of bladder cancer with fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) scanning. We studied 12 patients with histologically proven ...
Cleavage Requirements for Activation of Factor V by Factor Xa
(Blackwell Science Ltd, 1997-07)
