Multiple functions of Dlx genes.
Dlx genes comprise a highly conserved family of homeobox genes homologous to the distal-less (Dll) gene of Drosophila. They are thought to act as transcription factors. All Dlx genes are expressed in spatially and temporally restricted patterns in craniofacial primordia, basal telencephalon and diencephalon, and in distal regions of extending appendages, including the limb and the genital bud. ...
متن کاملTHE MULTIPLE GAMMA FUNCTIONS AND THE MULTIPLE q-GAMMA FUNCTIONS
We give an asymptotic expansion (the higher Stirling formula) and an infinite product representation (the Weierstrass product representation) of the Vignéras multiple gamma functions by considering the classical limit of the multiple q-gamma functions.
متن کاملMultiple functions of USP18
Since the discovery of the ubiquitin system and the description of its important role in the degradation of proteins, many studies have shown the importance of ubiquitin-specific peptidases (USPs). One special member of this family is the USP18 protein (formerly UBP43). In the past two decades, several functions of USP18 have been discovered: this protein is not only an isopeptidase but also a ...
متن کاملMultiple functions of thioredoxins.
Reduced thioredoxins from microbial and plant cells, both of cytoplasmic or chloroplast origin, are interchangeable in stimulating such diverse enzyme activities as ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase (E. coli), PAPS sulfotransferase (Synechococcus), and fructose-1,6-bis-phosphatase (from spinach) in vitro. It is suggested that reduced thioredoxins are unspecific, multifunctional cellular prot...
متن کاملWhen Wnts antagonize Wnts
Secreted Wnt ligands appear to activate a variety of signaling pathways. Two papers in this issue now present genetic evidence that "noncanonical" Wnt signaling inhibits the "canonical" Wnt/beta-catenin pathway. Westfall et al. (2003a) show that zebrafish embryos lacking maternal Wnt-5 function are dorsalized due to ectopic activation of beta-catenin, whereas Topol et al. (2003) report that cho...
