A Family That Grows From Within
Hydrolytic cleavage of large, inert proteins into smaller, active products is a common event in biology. The active products usually enjoy brief useful lifespans before they themselves are cleaved into inactive fragments. Prototypic participants in this process include clotting factors, complement, and digestive enzymes. Angiotensin II (Ang II) was the first polypeptide hormone recognized as th...
متن کاملP-201: The Role of P53 Family Members in Infertility
Background: P53, p63, and p73 transcription factors which are belong to The p53 family, are conserved during evolution. They have important roles in many molecular and cellular functions, including tumor suppression, the development of epithelial cell layers, and the development of central nervous system and immune system. Studies show these molecules also have role in maintaining the genomic i...
متن کاملThe p53/p63/p73 family
The p53 gene is a tumor suppressor gene and the most frequent site of genetic alterations found in human cancers (Hollstein et al., 1991, 1996). Transgenic mice expressing mutant p53 or p53−/− mice are very prone to both spontaneous and induced tumors (Donehower et al., 1992). The p53 protein is a sequencespecific transcription factor that regulates the expression of genes involved in cell cycl...
متن کاملThe emerging p53 gene family.
Perturbation of p53 protein function is a common, if not universal, finding in human cancer. Tumor suppression by p53 is due, at least in part, to its ability to activate transcription of certain genes involved in cell cycle control and apoptosis (programmed cell death). Two additional members of the mammalian p53 family, p73 and p51, which is also known as p40, p63, KET, or p73L, were recently...
متن کاملThe Mind Grows Circuits
There is a vast supply of prior art that study models for mental processes. Some studies in psychology and philosophy approach it from an inner perspective in terms of experiences and percepts. Others such as neurobiology or connectionist-machines approach it externally by viewing the mind as complex circuit of neurons where each neuron is a primitive binary circuit. In this paper, we also mode...
