Insulin: The Structure in the Crystal and its Reflection in Chemistry and Biology by
TL;DR: The physical, chemical, and biological properties of insulin in the light of the atomic arrangement found in insulin crystals are reviewed in this paper, where the relation of the three-dimensional arrangement of the atoms in the molecule of 2-zinc insulin crystal to the solution properties of the insulin (particularly its states of aggregation), to the chemical reaction and chemical modification of the molecule, and to its primary biological activity is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oncogenic and transcriptional cooperation with Ha-Ras requires phosphorylation of c-Jun on serines 63 and 73
TL;DR: Site-directed mutagenesis indicates that phosphorylation of these serines is essential for stimulation of c-Jun activity and for cooperation with Ha-ras in ocogenic transformation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Egr-1 transcription factor directly activates PTEN during irradiation-induced signalling
TL;DR: The PTEN tumour suppressor and pro-apoptotic gene is frequently mutated in human cancers and loss of Egr-1 expression could deregulate the PTEN gene and contribute to the radiation resistance of some cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Eradication of established intracranial rat gliomas by transforming growth factor beta antisense gene therapy

TL;DR: Results indicate that inhibition of TGF-beta expression significantly enhances tumor-cell immunogenicity and supports future clinical evaluation of T GF-beta antisense gene therapy for TGF -beta-expressing tumors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oncoprotein-mediated signalling cascade stimulates c-Jun activity by phosphorylation of serines 63 and 73.
TL;DR: It is shown that the same changes in c-Jun phosphorylation are elicited by a variety of transforming oncoproteins with distinct biochemical activities, including Ha-Ras, and Raf-1, which participate in a signal transduction pathway that leads to increased phosphorylated of serines 63 and 73 on c- Jun.
