p63 transcriptionally regulates the expression of matrix metallopeptidase 13

p63 is a transcriptional factor belonging to p53 family of genes. Beside the role in cancer, partially shared with p53 and the other member p73, p63 also plays exclusive roles in development and homeostasis of ectodermal/epidermal-related organs. Here we show that p63 transcriptionally controls the expression of the matrix metallopeptidase 13 (MMP13). p63 binds a p53-like responsive element in ...

Expression and purification of integral membrane metallopeptidase HtpX.

Little is known about the catalytic mechanism of integral membrane (IM) peptidases. HtpX is an IM metallopeptidase that plays a central role in protein quality control by preventing the accumulation of misfolded proteins in the membrane. Here we report the recombinant overexpression and purification of a catalytically ablated form of HtpX from Escherichia coli. Several E. coli strains, expressi...

Conformation of membrane-inserted P-glycoprotein

Background The human genome codes for 49 members of the large ABC protein family. Most of them are membrane transporters. The first structures of exporters have been solved in recent years. Although a remarkable achievement, some uncertainty remained with respect to the physiological conformation of the transporter, which seems not to be fully compatible with all biochemical evidence. During cr...
