Spatial control of supramolecular self-assembly can yield compartmentalized structures, a key feature for the design artificial cells. Inducing from and on compartments is still challenge. Polyelectrolyte complex coacervates are simple model droplet systems able to reproduce basic features membrane-less organelles, appearing in Here, we demonstrate phosphorylated tripeptide, Fmoc-FFpY (Fmoc: fl...

CBA and C57 mice were tested for their ability to make an immune response to a related series of branched, multichain synthetic polypeptide antigens in which the antigenic determinants on the amino termini of the branched side chains were systematically varied. Neither strain responded to the polyglutamic acid determinant. Both strains responded well and equally to the poly(phenylalanine, gluta...

Plasma-membrane-associated protein kinase(s) from normal rat liver phosphorylates exogenous bovine brain calmodulin in the absence of Ca2+ and in the presence of histone or poly(L-lysine). Maximum levels of calmodulin phosphorylation are obtained at a poly(L-lysine)/calmodulin molar ratio of 0.4. Phosphoamino acid analysis revealed that calmodulin is phosphorylated on serine, threonine and tyro...

background : fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 is a tyrosine kinase receptor that plays an important role in proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells. internal tandem duplication and tyrosine kinase domain mutation are the two most common types of fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 mutations frequently reported in acute myeloid leukemia associated with pathogenesis of this disease. the pr...

A hybrid receptor molecule composed of the extracellular ligand-binding domain of the human insulin receptor and the transmembrane and cytoplasmic (protein-tyrosine kinase) domains of the chicken sarcoma virus UR2 transforming protein p68gag-ros has been constructed and expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. The hybrid is processed normally into alpha and hybrid beta subunits, is expre...

The cellular effects of numerous hormones and neurotransmitters, including the vasoactive agents angiotensin II (AngII) and [Arg8]vasopressin, are mediated in part by protein-serine threonine kinases activated by increase of cytosolic Ca2+ concentration. In this study, we have tested the ability of Ca(2+)-mobilizing agents to activate cellular tyrosine kinases. Treatment of intact GN4 liver epi...

Secretion of neurotransmitter at the synapse and in secretory cells depends on the availability of vesicles for exocytosis. Rapid endocytosis is responsible for initiating local vesicle recycling and is essential during sustained neurotransmission. Although exocytosis is triggered by Ca(2+) influx and modulated by serine/threonine kinases, relatively little is known about the regulation of rapi...

sunitinib is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor which prevents tumor growth and metastatic progression. it was approved for treatment of advanced renal cell cancer, gastrointestinal stromal tumor and advanced pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. it has several adverse reactions on multi organ systems including hematologic system. although the neutropenia and thrombocytopenia commonly happens as gra...

introduction: imatinib mesylate is a selective inhibitor of tk and is considered now to be the frontline therapeutic agent during the chronic phase of cml. we have evaluated the efficacy of it on children with chronic-phase of cml. patients and methods: in a clinical trial study over the past 3 years, 14 patients (8 females and 6 males, 2.5-14 years old) were admitted with a diagnosis of cml. s...

using the computational methods, the interaction effect of tyrosine amino acid on graphene wasinvestigated. for this purpose, the density functional theory (dft) in the ground state of 6-31gwas used, and the interaction effects of tyrosine on graphene was investigated through attachmentto three different base positions. different parameters such as energy levels, the amount ofchemical shift in ...
