Peroxisome targeting signal 1: is it really a simple tripeptide?
Originally, the peroxisomal targeting signal 1 (PTS1) was defined as a tripeptide at the C-terminus of proteins prone to be imported into the peroxisomal matrix. The corresponding receptor PEX5 initiates the translocation of proteins by identifying potential substrates via their C-termini and trapping PTS1s through remodeling of its TPR domain. Thorough studies on the interaction between PEX5 a...
متن کاملC-terminal tripeptide Ser-Asn-Leu (SNL) of human D-aspartate oxidase is a functional peroxisome-targeting signal.
The functionality of the C-terminus (Ser-Asn-Leu; SNL) of human d-aspartate oxidase, an enzyme proposed to have a role in the inactivation of synaptically released d-aspartate, as a peroxisome-targeting signal (PTS1) was investigated in vivo and in vitro. Bacterially expressed human d-aspartate oxidase was shown to interact with the human PTS1-binding protein, peroxin protein 5 (PEX5p). Binding...
متن کاملSerum prolactin level in psoriasis: Is it really higher than in healthy individuals?
Background: Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated skin diseasewith a genetic predisposition. Prolactin may contribute to psoriasispathogenesis. However, there has been a debate over the serumlevel of prolactin in psoriatic patients. The aim of this study was todescribe the role of serum prolactin in the pathogenesis of psoriasisMethod: The serum prolactin level was measured in 45 patientswith ...
متن کاملLarge simple trials: really, it can't be that simple!
In this issue of the European Heart Journal, Calvo et al. present another plea for simplified approaches to clinical trials evaluating cardiovascular therapies. In the interest of disclosure, I note that I work closely with many of the authors of this article. Dr Christopher Granger, in particular, is a long-time collaborator and senior investigator in my own institution. The thesis advanced by...
متن کاملPREDICTION/ESTIMATION WITH SIMPLE LINEAR MODELS: IS IT REALLY THAT SIMPLE? By
Consider the simple normal linear regression model for estimation/prediction at a new design point. When the slope parameter is not obviously nonzero, hypothesis testing and model selection methods can be used for identifying the right model. We compare performance of such methods both theoretically and empirically from different perspectives for more insight. The testing approach, in spite of ...
