• Direct coupling between DNA methyltransferase

  2020-04-21

  

  Direct coupling between DNA methyltransferase enzymes and posttranslational modifications on histone proteins has been observed in mammals. For example, DNMT3A recognizes unmodified H3 through an ATRX-DNMT3-DNMT3L (ADD) domain, and its activity is inhibited by methylation of H3 at K4 (Li et al., 201

  Our structures also provide new insights into CRTH2 drug development. The ligand binding pocket revealed by our structures comprises many aromatic residues and a few polar residues at the distal end. Correspondingly, most CRTH2 antagonists share a similar structural feature characterized by an aceta

  Estrogens: Definition and history The term “estrogens” refers to a group of female hormones, including estrone, estradiol, estriol, and estretrol (Fig. 1). Chemically, estrogens belong to the family of organic compounds known as steroids. As such, their core structure is composed of 17 carbon-carbo

  Non-cyclic nucleotide EPAC regulators Despite the success of 007 as a tool molecule, few studies to date have led to the identification of further EPAC-selective agonists. The most studied and controversial group of small-molecule EPAC regulators are the sulfonylurea (SU) family. SUs (Table 1) s

  Introduction CYP450 is a superfamily of heme-containing monooxygenases, many of which are expressed in the liver, and they are significant phase-I pyridoxal phosphate mg in drug metabolism and detoxification. There are three subfamilies (CYP1, CYP2 and CYP3) that are mainly involved in the metabol

  EphB4 as a therapeutic target in cancer Eph receptors and ephrins are promising new therapeutic targets in cancer. Various strategies have been employed to evaluate the interference of tumor-promoting effects or the enhancement of tumor suppressive effects. The inhibition of the Eph-ephrin system

  EBI2 remains an orphan GPCR and the identity and source of its ligand are yet to be described. Molecular studies of EBI2 have suggested that this receptor has constitutive activity, similar to that observed for many herpesvirus-encoded 7TM receptors (Benned-Jensen and Rosenkilde, 2008, Rosenkilde et

  GLP-1 also showed cardioprotective effects (i.e., infarct size reduction and ejection fraction improvement) in experimental models of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury by suppressing caspase-3 activation and preventing apoptosis of cardiomyocytes [[50], [51]]. Of note, such a cardioprotection w

  Several studies have already shown that mPR activation can significantly reduce intracellular cAMP levels in different kind of cells, such as GT1-7 neuronal cells [32], MDA-MB-468 breast cancer cells [55] and primary vascular endothelial cells [56]. The experiments performed with PTXa and 8-Br-cAMP

  We propose that, unlike other autophagy genes, the specific increase in the expression of IRGM by pEIF2A plays a major role as a checkpoint allowing host cell survival by autophagy or host cell elimination by necroptosis. The localization of IRGM to the mitochondrial inner membrane, its ability to i
