Thematic minireview series on focus on vision.
Human visual perception is initiated through absorption of light by photoreceptors in the retina. To maintain vision, 11-cis-retinal, which is photoisomerized to all-trans-retinal, is continuously regenerated through the retinoid (visual) cycle. In the first minireview of this thematic series, entitled “Chemistry and Biology of Vision,” I describe the visual system from both chemical and struct...
متن کاملThematic minireview series on circular proteins.
Circular proteins have now been discovered in all kingdoms of life and are characterized by their exceptional stability and the diversity of their biological activities, primarily in the realm of host defense functions. This thematic minireview series provides an overview of the distribution, evolution, activities, and biological synthesis of circular proteins. It also reviews approaches that b...

متن کاملMinireview on Regulation of Intestinal Calcium Absorption
An overview of current information on the mechanisms by which intestinal calcium absorption occurs is described in this article. Both paracellular and transcellular pathways are analyzed. Special emphasis focuses on molecules participating in the latter pathway, such as TRPV5 and TRPV6 channels, located in the apical region of the enterocytes, CB 9k and CB 28k , presumably involved in the catio...
متن کاملMinireview Actions of Avermectins on Cultured Neurons
The avermectins (AVM) are macrocyclic lactone derivatives produced by Streptomyces avermitilis, which have potent anthelmintic as well as insecticidal activities (Egerton et al., 1979; Ostlind et aL, 1979; Putter et al., 1981). These compounds consist of four major components (A~a, A:a, Bl~, B2a) and four minor components (A~b, AEb, Bmb, BEb) but it is presumed that all avermectins share a comm...
