Challenges in microbially and chelate-assisted phytoextraction of cadmium and lead – A review
(2021)Cadmium (Cd) and lead (Pb) are ubiquitously present in surface soils, due to anthropogenic activities, causing threat to ecological and human health because of their carcinogenic nature. They accumulate in large quantities ... -
Characterizing miRNA–lncRNA Interplay
(2021)Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are noncoding transcripts, usually longer than 200 nt, that constitute one of the largest and significantly heterogeneous RNA families. The annotation of lncRNAs and the characterization of ... -
The emerging epigenetics of PARK7 and its implication in neurodegenerative disease
(2018)[No abstract available] -
Endocrine resistance and epigenetic reprogramming in estrogen receptor positive breast cancer
(2021)Despite the enormous advances during the last three decades, breast cancer continues to be the most frequent type of cancer as well as one of the most frequent cancer-related causes of death in women. Therapeutic management ... -
Enhancer of rudimentary homologue interacts with scaffold attachment factor B at the nuclear matrix to regulate SR protein phosphorylation
(2017)Scaffold attachment factor B1 (SAFB1) is an integral component of the nuclear matrix of vertebrate cells. It binds to DNA on scaffold/matrix attachment region elements, as well as to RNA and a multitude of different proteins, ... -
Evidence for disulfide bonds in SR Protein Kinase 1 (SRPK1) that are required for activity and nuclear localization
(2017)Serine/arginine protein kinases (SRPKs) phosphorylate Arg/Ser dipeptide-containing proteins that play crucial roles in a broad spectrum of basic cellular processes. The existence of a large internal spacer sequence that ... -
Hypoxia upregulates the expression of the O-linked N-acetylglucosamine containing epitope H in human ependymal cells
(2011)Epitope H contains an O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) residue in a specific conformation and/or environment recognized by mouse IgM monoclonal antibody H (mabH). Epitope H is present in several types of cells and ... -
Identification of MAPK phosphorylation sites and their role in the localization and activity of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α
(2006)Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) controls the expression of most genes induced by hypoxic conditions. Regulation of expression and activity of its inducible subunit, HIF-1α, involves several post-translational modifications. ... -
Lncrnas as chromatin regulators in cancer: From molecular function to clinical potential
(2019)During the last decade, high-throughput sequencing efforts in the fields of transcriptomics and epigenomics have shed light on the noncoding part of the transcriptome and its potential role in human disease. Regulatory ... -
The pivotal role of protein phosphorylation in the control of yeast central metabolism
(2017)Protein phosphorylation is the most frequent eukaryotic post-translational modification and can act as either a molecular switch or rheostat for protein functions. The deliberate manipulation of protein phosphorylation has ... -
Porphyromonas gingivalis and rheumatoid arthritis
(2019)Purpose of review: To explore the pathogenic association between periodontal disease and rheumatoid arthritis focusing on the role of Porphyromonas gingivalis. Recent findings: In the last decades our knowledge about the ... -
Post-translational modifications of Medicago truncatula glutathione peroxidase 1 induced by nitric oxide
(2017)Plant glutathione peroxidases (Gpx) catalyse the reduction of various peroxides, such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), phospholipid hydroperoxides and peroxynitrite, but at the expense of thioredoxins rather than glutathione. ... -
Predicting alpha helical transmembrane proteins using HMMs
(2017)Alpha helical transmembrane (TM) proteins constitute an important structural class of membrane proteins involved in a wide variety of cellular functions. The prediction of their transmembrane topology, as well as their ... -
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 ... -
Spectrophotometric assays for measuring redox biomarkers in blood and tissues: the NADPH network
(2018)Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+/NADH) along with its phosphorylated form (NADP+/NADPH) are two molecules ubiquitously present in all organisms, and they play key roles as cofactors in fundamental catabolic and ... -
We are what we eat: Ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) modulation through dietary products
(2020)During lifetime, the molecular mechanisms that are responsible for cellular defense against adverse conditions such as oxidative and heat stress tend to be less efficient, thus gradually leading to the natural phenomenon ...
