  STAR★Methods Author Contributions Introduction Hyaluronan, a major constituent of the extracellular matrix (ECM), is produced by hyaluronan synthases (HASs) and degraded by hyaluronidases (HYALs) (Vigetti et al., 2014). Physiologically, hyaluronan exists in a form with a molecular weight of

  2022-06-07

  

  To prevent toxicity of free hemoglobin as well as its degradation metabolites heme and free iron, several scavenger proteins and degradation enzymes protect the body. Haptoglobin (Hp) is the most well described hemoglobin scavenging protein that binds free hemoglobin and transports it to macrophages

  Not all metals are susceptible of being accumulated by insects. Tissue concentrations of essential metals like Cu and Zn are regulated in many insects and hence cannot be used to biomonitor metal pollution (Hare, 1992). A similar behaviour could explain the observed stability of Zn and Cu relative t

  GSNOR1 regulates SA synthesis and SA signalling The phenolic metabolite salicylic TW-37 australia (SA) is a powerful immune activator in plants. Moreover, mutations that disable SA biosynthesis or transgenes that result in its depletion compromise both resistance (R) gene-mediated and basal resis

  While the specific set of challenges associated with deorphanization and transforming each poorly characterized GPCR into a useful drug target will be unique, much can be learned by considering how these issues have been addressed for other receptors. One group of poorly characterized GPCRs that hav

  Accordingly, a bioassay-guided approach was been used to study the bioactive compounds in VAS contribute to the α-glucosidase inhibitory and antioxidant activity. The 95% ethanol extraction of VAS was successively partitioned with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and n-butanol. Ethyl acetate fraction

  cAMP is a key secondary messenger which transduces extracellular signals at glucagon receptors to intracellular effector molecules. cAMP-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway increases the gene expression of enzymes including phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) and glucose 6-phosphatase (G6Pase) whic

  To identify inhibitors of the Hh/GLI signaling pathway from natural resources, we have recently reported the successful construction of a cell-based screening assay system for the Hh/GLI signaling pathway (Fig. 1). This is an assay using a GLI-dependent luciferase reporter in human keratinocyte cell

  In general, FPSs require Mg2+ or Mn2+ as a cofactor for GPP and FPP synthesis. Co2+ also acts as a cofactor in EuFPSs, as in the case for PcFPS and Abies grandis FPS [29], [44]. Co2+ enhanced the activity of EuFPS1 more than the activity of EuFPS2: Mg2+, Mn2+ and Co2+ had approximately the same effe

  Mitochondrial binding by HK prevents mortality by inhibiting pro-apoptotic factor (Bcl-2 family)-mediated opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) (Arora and Pedersen, 1988, Calmettes et al., 2016, Kodde et al., 2007, Pedersen et al., 2002, Rosano, 2011, Schindler and Foley,

  Suz12 is required for methyltransferase activity, silencing function, and PRC2 protein stabilization in somatic and human ESCs (Cao and Zhang, 2004, Pasini et al., 2004, Collinson et al., 2016). Our experiments indicate that, in addition to associating with the H3K27 demethylases KDM6A (UTX) (Wang e

  In contrast to sGC stimulators, sGC activators promote enzymatic activity of sGC containing oxidized heme iron (Fe3+) or missing the heme group. A-350619 is one of the oldest activators of sGC to be discovered. A-350619 increased sGC activation in a non-additive manner with respect to YC-1, leading
