Glycogen synthase kinase-3 regulates mouse oocyte homologue segregation
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2003-01)
Intracellular regulation of oocyte meiosis is not completely understood. However, reversible phosphorylation, which involves serine/threonine protein kinases and phosphatases (PP), is an important mediator. Glycogen synthase ...
Glycogen synthase kinase-3 regulation of chromatin segregation and cytokinesis in mouse preimplantation embryos
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2007-02)
Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is a highly conserved serine/threonine protein kinase implicated in diverse cellular processes. Activity of GSK-3 is essential for meiotic chromatin segregation in oocytes, yet expression ...
Distribution of co-activators CBP and p300 during mouse oocyte and embryo development
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2006-07)
cAMP response element binding protein (CREB)-binding protein (CBP) and p300 are two structurally related transcriptional co-activators that activate expression of many eukaryotic genes. Current dogma would suggest that ...
Intrinsic difference in erythrocyte membrane in spontaneously hypertensive rats characterized by Na + and K + fluxes
(Springer-Verlag, 1983-09)
The goad of this study was to determine whether the elevated flux of sodium and potassium through the erythrocyte membrane of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) is due to an intrinsic difference in the cell membrane or ...
Specific inhibition of mouse oocyte nuclear protein phosphatase-1 stimulates germinal vesicle breakdown
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2003-05)
Okadaic acid (OA)-induced germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD) and localization of protein phosphatase-1 (PP1) in oocyte nuclei are suggestive of PP1's role in regulating oocyte GVBD. To explore this possibility, we microinjected ...
