• Repulsive interactions towards undesirable substrates

  2020-05-12

  

  Repulsive interactions towards undesirable substrates are arguably a very efficient means to implement specificity [8]. In particular, it could be assumed that discrimination against a substrate that is larger than the cognate substrate may be achieved easily by restricting the active site and explo

  2020-05-12

  

  To provide a brief critical evaluation of this technology and an outlook, we note that performance of SMEPT is critically dependent on each of the components making up this platform, namely the substrate, the enzyme, and the prodrug. With regards to the latter, SMEPT is built on the experience and s

  Chagas disease Chagas disease, an NTD caused by the protozoan Trypanosoma cruzi, affects 8–10 million people globally. More than 10,000 deaths are caused by the disease each year, and nearly 70 million people are susceptible to infection (Manne-Goehler, Umeh, Montgomery, & Wirtz, 2016). Chagas di

• Western blotting and flow cytometry

  2020-05-11

  

  Western blotting and flow cytometry was employed to assess the DNA-PK inhibition of LTU28 and LTU31 in combination with radiation. It has been previously reported that phosphorylation of DNA-PKcs at the Thr2609 cluster plays an important role in DSB repair and resistance to radiation (Ding et al., 2

• Mutation in BRCT II domain W R

  2020-05-11

  

  Mutation in BRCT-II domain (W893R) either in the full-length context or the C-terminal context greatly reduced the expression of LIG4 (Fig. 2B, Fig. 3B), suggesting the importance of BRCT-II domain in the maintenance of LIG4. In this regard, it might be noted that LIG4 protein was undetectable in Li

  2020-05-11

  

  We first confirmed LPS-induction of markers known to induce NF-κB signaling in Caco2BB cells, as established for numerous other cell types [31]. We initially selected this approach to monitor NF-κB activation instead of directly monitoring p65 as it is technically straightforward and provides both u

  2020-05-11

  

  More unusual modifications also regulate DUBs. Recent reports have illustrated how reactive oxygen species (ROS) can regulate DUB activity 87, 88, 89, 90. ROS can serve as potent signaling molecules by reacting with active site cysteines of tyrosine phosphatases and some cysteine peptidases to form

• N acetylation by N acetyltransferase

  2020-05-11

  

  N-acetylation by N-acetyltransferase (NAT) is an important metabolic pathway for some substances, and there are 2 functional NAT isoforms in humans—NAT1 and NAT2. Studies of etamicastat in healthy subjects showed an extensive N-acetylation of etamicastat to the inactive metabolite BIA 5-961, and a l

  In light of the overall loss of activity and selectivity observed with this series of arylchromenone-4-ones bearing small -alkoxy substituents, we were pleased to identify a potent and relatively selective inhibitor , exhibiting IC values of 0.008μM and 0.07μM for DNA-PK and PI3Kα, respectively.

  Herein, in continuation of our interest in designing new DNA photocleavage agents [18], we report the synthesis, characterization and DNA binding and cleaving properties of a novel compound: trans-N,N-dimethyl-10,11-di(pyridin-4-ium)-10,11-dihydro-9,12-dioxobenzo[e]phenanthrene tetrafluoroborate (1)

  2020-05-11

  

  Both meiotic COs and NCOs require DNA synthesis, current data from sequencing also suggest that COs require more DNA synthesis than NCO 63., 64., 65.. However, analysis of the role of DNA synthesis in NCOs remains relatively uncharacterized. Emerging evidence points to a role for either Polδ or Polε

  We hypothesized that the atopic phenotype may be partially influenced by an altered binding and/or signalling due to the amino-acid substitution in the receptor protein. The principal aim of this study was to investigate the signalling mechanisms of the variants CysLT1-G300S and CysLT1-I206S induced
