HLA class II peptide-binding-region analysis reveals funneling of polymorphism in action
(2021)Background: HLA-class II proteins hold important roles in key physiological processes. The purpose of this study was to compile all class II alleles reported in human population and investigate patterns in pocket variants ... -
Hypoxia-induced Changes in SUMO Conjugation Affect Transcriptional Regulation under Low Oxygen
(2019)Hypoxia occurs in pathological conditions, such as cancer, as a result of the imbalance between oxygen supply and consumption by proliferating cells. HIFs are critical molecular mediators of the physiological response to ... -
Kynurenine, by activating aryl hydrocarbon receptor, decreases erythropoietin and increases hepcidin production in HepG2 cells: A new mechanism for anemia of inflammation
(2016)It is known that inadequate erythropoietin (EPO) production contributes to the pathogenesis of anemia of inflammation, although the exact molecular mechanism is unknown. Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) may compete with ... -
Mining the Protein Data Bank to improve prediction of changes in protein-protein binding
(2021)Predicting the effect of mutations on protein-protein interactions is important for relating structure to function, as well as for in silico affinity maturation. The effect of mutations on protein-protein binding energy ... -
Mortalin-mediated and ERK-controlled targeting of HIF-1α to mitochondria confers resistance to apoptosis under hypoxia
(2017)Hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) is the main transcriptional activator of the cellular response to hypoxia and an important target of anticancer therapy. Phosphorylation by ERK1 and/or ERK2 (MAPK3 and MAPK1, respectively; ... -
A multifunctional RNA recognition motif in poly(A)-specific ribonuclease with cap and poly(A) binding properties
(2007)Poly(A)-specific ribonuclease (PARN) is an oligomeric, processive and cap-interacting 3′ exoribonuclease that efficiently degrades mRNA poly(A) tails. Here we show that the RNA recognition motif (RRM) of PARN harbors both ... -
Neuronal ELAVL proteins utilize AUF-1 as a co-partner to induce neuron-specific alternative splicing of APP
(2017)Aβ peptide that accumulates in Alzheimer's disease brain, derives from proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) that exists in three main isoforms derived by alternative splicing. The isoform APP695, ... -
On-line SPE sample treatment as a tool for method automatization and detection limits reduction: Quantification of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3/D2
(2017)The development and approbation of new, automated UHPLC-DAD method for the quantification of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3/D2 (25OH-D3/D2) metabolites in plasma/serum for the evaluation of patient's vitamin D status are presented. ... -
Potential dissociative glucocorticoid receptor activity for protopanaxadiol and protopanaxatriol
(2019)�Glucocorticoids are steroid hormones that regulate inflammation, growth, metabolism, and apoptosis via their cognate receptor, the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). GR, acting mainly as a transcription factor, activates or ... -
Principles for integrating reactive species into in vivo biological processes: Examples from exercise physiology
(2016)The equivocal role of reactive species and redox signaling in exercise responses and adaptations is an example clearly showing the inadequacy of current redox biology research to shed light on fundamental biological processes ... -
Probing the β-pocket of the active site of human liver glycogen phosphorylase with 3-(C-β-D-glucopyranosyl)-5-(4-substituted-phenyl)-1, 2, 4-triazole inhibitors
(2018)Human liver glycogen phosphorylase (hlGP), a key enzyme in glycogen metabolism, is a valid pharmaceutical target for the development of new anti-hyperglycaemic agents for type 2 diabetes. Inhibitor discovery studies have ... -
Protein-protein interaction (ppi) network: Recent advances in drug discovery
(2017)Background: The investigation of the cellular components, their interactions and related functions constitute the major conditions in order to understand the cell as an integrated system. More specifically, the Protein-Protein ... -
Proteomic analysis of human angiogenin interactions reveals cytoplasmic PCNA as a putative binding partner
(2017)Human Angiogenin (hAng) is a member of the ribonuclease A superfamily and a potent inducer of neovascularization. Protein interactions of hAng in the nucleus and cytoplasm of the human umbilical vein cell line EA.hy926 ... -
Proteomic analysis of the mitochondrial glucocorticoid receptor interacting proteins reveals pyruvate dehydrogenase and mitochondrial 60 kDa heat shock protein as potent binding partners
(2022)Glucocorticoids are steroid hormones that regulate plethora biological actions such as growth and metabolism, immune response, and apoptosis. Glucocorticoids actions are mediated via glucocorticoid receptors which act ... -
The putative interplay between DJ-1/NRF2 and Dimethyl Fumarate: A potentially important pharmacological target
(2018)Recent research has outlined that Dimethyl Fumarate (DMF) functions as a gene regulator via multiple pathways, critical among which is the NRF2 cytoprotective cascade. PARK7/DJ-1 is a multifunctional protein that acts as ... -
REPLACE: A strategy for iterative design of cyclin-binding groove inhibitors
(2006)We describe a drug-design strategy termed REPLACE (REplacement with Partial Ligand Alternatives through Computational Enrichment) in which nonpeptidic surrogates for specific determinants of known peptide ligands are ... -
Thermodynamic, crystallographic and computational studies of non-mammalian fatty acid binding to bovine β-Lactoglobulin
(2018)The milk protein β-lactoglobulin has been widely studied since its discovery, both as a purified protein and in mixtures with other milk proteins, where its effect on the processing properties is of importance to the dairy ... -
Truncation and optimisation of peptide inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinase 2-cyclin A through structure-guided design
