Structural and functional characterisation of human sulfotransferases.
The human aryl sulfotransferases HAST4 and HAST4v vary by only two amino acids but exhibit markedly different affinity towards the sulfonate acceptor p-nitrophenol and the sulfonate donor 3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate (PAPS). To determine the importance of each of these amino acid differences, chimeric constructs were made of HAST4 and HAST4v. By attaching the last 120 amino acids of HA...
متن کاملCorrection: Structural and Chemical Profiling of the Human Cytosolic Sulfotransferases
The human cytosolic sulfotransfases (hSULTs) comprise a family of 12 phase II enzymes involved in the metabolism of drugs and hormones, the bioactivation of carcinogens, and the detoxification of xenobiotics. Knowledge of the structural and mechanistic basis of substrate specificity and activity is crucial for understanding steroid and hormone metabolism, drug sensitivity, pharmacogenomics, and...
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولStructural and functional characterisation of neuronal Gq protein coupled receptors
Both G protein coupled receptor 10 (GPR10) and the muscarinic IVh receptor are members of family A of the G protein coupled receptor superfamily. GPR10 is the human orthologue of a former orphan receptor for which prolactin releasing peptides (PrRP) have been identified as the cognate ligands. In contrast, the Mi receptor represents a well-established receptor for which up until the discovery o...
متن کاملCharacterization of human iodothyronine sulfotransferases.
Sulfation is an important pathway of thyroid hormone metabolism that facilitates the degradation of the hormone by the type I iodothyronine deiodinase, but little is known about which human sulfotransferase isoenzymes are involved. We have investigated the sulfation of the prohormone T4, the active hormone T3, and the metabolites rT3 and 3,3'-diiodothyronine (3,3'-T2) by human liver and kidney ...
