FHY1: a phytochrome A-specific signal transducer.
Phytochromes are plant photoreceptors that regulate plant growth and development with respect to the light environment. Following the initial light-perception event, the phytochromes initiate a signal-transduction process that eventually results in alterations in cellular behavior, including gene expression. Here we describe the molecular cloning and functional characterization of Arabidopsis F...
متن کاملTransducer Preamp Filter Signal Processor
This is a design oriented engineering class; it is more relevant to understand circuit’s operation and limitations that finding exact mathematical expressions or exact numerical solutions. Precise results can always be obtained through proper circuit simulations, and through a piece of Matlab/Maple code; however none of these programs can’t design a single circuit for you; especially if you are...
متن کاملWhat is the function of neuroglobin?
For a long time, haemoglobin and myoglobin had been assumed to represent the only globin types of vertebrates. In 2000, however, we discovered a third globin type by mining the genome sequence data. Based on a preferential expression in the nervous system, this globin is referred to as neuroglobin. Despite nine years of research, its function is still uncertain and a number of hypotheses have b...
متن کاملThe nuclear membrane leukotriene synthetic complex is a signal integrator and transducer
Leukotrienes (LTs) are lipid-signaling molecules derived from arachidonic acid (AA) that initiate and amplify inflammation. To initiate LT formation, the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) enzyme translocates to nuclear membranes, where it associates with its scaffold protein, 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (FLAP), to form the core of the multiprotein LT synthetic complex. FLAP is considered to function ...
متن کاملCalpain is a signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 3 and STAT5 protease.
Truncation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 5 at the carboxy-terminal domain, either by genetic engineering or by proteolytic cleavage, results in generation of dominant-negative forms. A nuclear serine protease expressed in the myeloid precursor cells is known to mediate this cleavage, but other proteases responsible for this reaction were unknown. We found that calpa...
