Zebrafish as a Model to Investigate Dynamin 2-Related Diseases.
Mutations in the dynamin-2 gene (DNM2) cause autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (CNM) and dominant intermediate Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) neuropathy type B (CMTDIB). As the relation between these DNM2-related diseases is poorly understood, we used zebrafish to investigate the effects of two different DNM2 mutations. First we identified a new alternatively spliced zebrafish dynamin-2a mRN...
متن کاملDynamin 2 regulates riboflavin endocytosis in human placental trophoblasts.
Riboflavin is thoroughly established to be indispensable in a multitude of cellular oxidation-reduction reactions through its conversion to coenzyme forms flavin mononucleotide and flavin adenine dinucleotide. Despite its physiological importance, little is known about specific mechanisms or proteins involved in regulating its cellular entry in humans. Studies involving biochemical modulators a...
متن کاملTransglutaminase 2 in human diseases
Transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is an inducible transamidating acyltransferase that catalyzes Ca(2+)-dependent protein modifications. In addition to being an enzyme, TG2 also serves as a G protein for several seven transmembrane receptors and acts as a co-receptor for integrin β1 and β3 integrins distinguishing it from other members of the transglutaminase family. TG2 is ubiquitously expressed in almo...
متن کاملRedundant and Distinct Functions for Dynamin-1 and Dynamin-2 Isoforms
A role for dynamin in clathrin-mediated endocytosis is now well established. However, mammals express three closely related, tissue-specific dynamin isoforms, each with multiple splice variants. Thus, an important question is whether these isoforms and splice variants function in vesicle formation from distinct intracellular organelles. There are conflicting data as to a role for dynamin-2 in v...
متن کاملLong non-coding RNAs and their significance in human diseases
Protein-coding genes account for only a small fraction of the human genome and most of the genomic sequences are transcriptionally silent, but recent observations indicate significant functional elements, including non-coding protein transcripts in the human genome. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been defined as transcripts of >200 nucleotides without protein-coding capacity that perform t...
