متن کاملThe diverse biological functions of phosphatidylinositol transfer proteins in eukaryotes.
Phosphatidylinositol/phosphatidylcholine transfer proteins (PITPs) remain largely functionally uncharacterized, despite the fact that they are highly conserved and are found in all eukaryotic cells thus far examined by biochemical or sequence analysis approaches. The available data indicate a role for PITPs in regulating specific interfaces between lipid-signaling and cellular function. In this...
متن کاملAnnexins--unique membrane binding proteins with diverse functions.
Annexins are a well-known multigene family of Ca(2+)-regulated phospholipid-binding and membrane-binding proteins. Recent work employing annexin-knockdown or - knockout models has provided new insights into the biological functions of different annexin proteins. Transient annexin depletion by RNA interference and the expression of dominant-negative mutant proteins has revealed roles for the pro...
متن کاملCyclic nucleotide-binding domains in proteins having diverse functions.
Since the discovery of cAMP in the 1950s and the subsequent identification of cGMP, the role of these second messengers in mediating cellular function has been a major theme of research in biology. An important aspect of this research has been the identification and characterization of cyclic nucleotide receptors. For more than two decades, the bacterial CAMP-regulated catabolite gene activator...
متن کاملBiological functions of multistable proteins.
Multistable proteins are defined as those that have available more than one most stable conformation. This capability requires a reversal of the most stable and metastable designations dependent upon environmental conditions. The concept of multistability is discussed with regard to enzyme maturation, hybrid vigor, metabolic temperature compensation, developmental gradients, membrane transport ...
