the hydrophobic proteins of plant plasma membrane still remain largely unknown.  for example in the arabidopsis genome, receptor-like kinases (rlks) are plasma membrane proteins, functioning as the primary receptors in the signaling of stress conditions, hormones and the presence of pathogens form a diverse family of over 610 genes. a limited number of these proteins have appeard in protein pro...

we have investigated the effect of theophylline on the kinetics of the catalytic subunit of protein kinase and related factors in lung tissue. the results show that the point of highest concentration of the c subunit of protein kinase which is active in casein phosphorylation is at 3h of incubation time, but in the presence of 100 ilg/ inl and 10µg/ml theophylline, this is shifted to i.s and 2....

conclusions these results showed enhanced muscle atrophy processes following peripheral nerve damage and might provide a useful approach to study underlying muscle mechanisms associated with clinical neuropathic pain syndromes. results compared to control animals, l5 ligated animals developed mechanical and heat hypersensitivity during total period of study. soleus muscle weight as well as cdk5...

External and internal stimuli trigger the response of signals in the cell which amplified and communicated by various complex signal transduction networks are mostly initiated with the activation of different receptor proteins. These signaling networks perform as protective strategy to allow cells to cope with external stresses that usually restrain the plant growth and development. Protein kin...

a proteomic approach was conducted to further understand the mechanism of plant responses to salinity in hordeum bulbosom. three-week-old seedlings were treated with 300 mm of nacl for 21 days. total proteins of fourth leaf were extracted and separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. more than 500 protein spots were reproducibly detected, including 46 spots that were up-regulated and 16...

antiproliferative protein (app) isolated from conditioned media of two androgen-independent prostatic carcinoma cell lines, pc3 and du-145 was shown to inhibit selectively cell proliferation of androgen-dependent prostate cancer cell line lncap in a dose dependent manner. this protein was further purified with hplc using hydrophobic interaction column (phenyl 5pw) and was used to study the modu...

A novel plant protein kinase, designated Brassica napus kinase 1 (BNK1), was isolated from a lambda-pistil cDNA library. The deduced BNK1 protein contains all eleven conserved subdomains of a kinase and encodes a functional serine/threonine protein kinase. Phylogenetic analysis of several plant protein kinase subfamilies showed that BNK1 is most closely related to the NAK subfamily of protein k...
