Calmodulin binding-heat shock proteins form a ring structure in the rat testis

HDAC Inhibitors and Heat Shock Proteins (Hsps)

Epigenetic alterations, including DNA acetylation, hypermethylation and hypomethylation, and the associated transcriptional changes of the affected genes are central to the evolution and progression of various human cancers, including pancreatic cancer. Cancer-associated epigenetic alterations are attractive therapeutic targets because such epigenetic alterations, unlike genetic changes, are po...

Heat shock and the heat shock proteins.

As all biologists appreciate, there is constant interaction between life and the environment, and temperature plays a critical role. It establishes distribution limits, it affects rates of function as well as the survival of organisms. Notoriously sensitive to temperature is plant growth. Critical steps in plant life such as germination, flowering and breaking of dormancy can be manipulated by ...

Calmodulin and calmodulin-binding proteins in brain.

filament preparations isolated from many different species. Incubation of crude and purified preparations of filaments with [f2P]ATP labels nearly all the filament proteins (Fig. l), the exception being the 65000-mol.wt. band of Loligo (Fig. la). Phosphorylation in vitro is mediated by a cyclic AMPand Ca2+-independent, and Mg2+-dependent, protein kinase. The enzyme is activated by Na+ and K+ an...
