Kinase-interacting FHA domain of kinase associated protein phosphatase : phosphopeptide interactions and NMR-detected dynamics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)FHA domains are phosphoThr recognition modules found in diverse signaling proteins. Kinase-associated protein phosphatase (KAPP) from Arabidopsis employs its FHA domain in its negative regulation of some receptor-like ... -
Regulation of Nrf2 by a keap1-dependent E3 ubiquitin ligase
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)Oxidative damage to biological macromolecules has been implicated in diverse pathophysiological processes, including cancer, neurodegeneration, aging and cardiovascular disease. The Nrf2 transcription factor regulates ... -
The role of P2Y₂ nucleotide receptors in vascular inflammation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)Extracellular nucleotides act on P2 receptors to regulate vascular tone. Large amounts of extracellular nucleotides are released at the sites of tissue injury and may play an important role in the vascular inflammation. ... -
Structural and functional studies of proline catabolic enzymes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)Catabolism is the oxidation of organic nutrients into simple end molecules to extract energy. For proline, the catabolic pathway involves two enzymes, Lproline dehydrogenase (PRODH, EC 1.5.99.8) and L-[delta]¹-pyrroline- ...
