  Cell swelling stimulates the release of certain amino acids, in particular the non-protein amino 17 aag taurine, via a pathway which has the characteristics of a channel rather than a carrier [54], [69]. Indeed, on the basis of pharmacological inhibition, it was suggested that volume-activated taur

  Introduction Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women and the second leading cause of female death [1]. In recent years, with the improvement of early detection and the emergence of new treatment methods, the mortality rate of breast cancer has been greatly reduced. However, the

  Here we uncover a highly diverse superfamily of self-replicating MGEs, dubbed pipolins, which are present in three major bacterial phyla, as well as in mitochondria, and encode divergent PolB carrying TPR1 and TPR2 subdomains. Biochemical characterization of a representative enzyme encoded by a pipo

  Moreover, maintaining the pyrimidine pool is not the only important role played by DHODHs. In Toxoplasma gondii, for instance, DHODH plays a second essential function [38] possibly coupled to the mitochondrial respiratory activity, where it replenishes ubiquinol levels and prevents reactive oxygen s

  RDH10 belongs to 16C family of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDRs) superfamily of proteins [12], [13]. Notably, in human genome adjacent to the gene encoding RDH10 on chromosome 8 are located two other genes encoding members of the SDR16C family: retinol dehydrogenase epidermal 2 (RDHE2,

  Kluveromyces lactisSimilar to S. cerevisiae, K. lactis is a facultative anaerobic respiratory yeast, which lacks Complex I in its mitochondrial respiratory chain. However, both yeasts differ regarding their respiratory-fermentative metabolism as K. lactis exhibits a greater use of the pentose phosph

  Introduction Obesity constitutes a global healthcare problem and has many adverse effects on the cardiovascular function [1,2]. Recently, the perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) has emerged as a relevant fat depot for cardiovascular risk and as a potential trigger in vascular dysfunction. Indeed, PV

  Acknowledgments Introduction Endothelin receptors Shortly after the discovery of ET‐1, two types of seven transmembrane G protein‐coupled receptors were cloned called endothelin receptor A (ETA) (Arai et al., 1990) and ETB (Sakurai et al., 1990). The affinity of the ETA receptor for ET-3 is

  2020-03-16

  

  Intriguingly, one E2 residue may serve as a molecular ‘gate’ to allow the C-terminus of ubiquitin to access the closed E2~Ub conformations favorable for ubiquitin transfer. This residue, Asp87 in UbcH5 family members, resides on one side of the opening that leads to the active site Cys (Fig. 4D). In

  More recent studies have correlated sPLA2-V with alternative macrophage activation (M2) in human and murine macrophages [149,150]. sPLA2-V expression was induced during both human and mouse interleukin-4–mediated activation of macrophages in vitro, and its absence impaired macrophage activation in v
