Thematic minireview series: metals in biology 2010.
Metals are present in nearly one-half of protein structures analyzed to date and play important roles in many of these enzymes. This prologue introduces the third of the Thematic Minireview Series on Metals in Biology, which is focused on iron homeostasis. The four minireviews in the current series deal with redox cycling in iron metabolism, the biogenesis and assembly of iron-sulfur centers (t...
متن کاملThematic 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 کاملThematic minireview series: a perspective on the biology of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 55 years after its discovery.
Much has been published over the years on the enzymology, genetics, and metabolic role of the enzyme phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (GTP) (PEPCK; EC 4.1.1.32), and much of it has been in the Journal of Biological Chemistry. It is thus not an accident that the Journal is again focusing on this important enzyme in a Compendium that includes the original article by Utter and Kurahashi describin...
متن کاملThematic minireview series on phospholipase D and cancer.
Phospholipase D (PLD) signaling plays a critical role in cell growth and proliferation, vesicular trafficking, secretion, and endocytosis. At the cellular level, PLD and its reaction product, phosphatidate, interact with a large number of protein partners that are directly related to the actin cytoskeleton and cell migration. Cancer invasion and metastasis rely heavily on cellular motility, and...
