Journal ArticleDOI

AMP-activated Kinase Inhibits the Epithelial Na+ Channel through Functional Regulation of the Ubiquitin Ligase Nedd4-2

TL;DR: The role of Nedd4-2 in the regulation of ENaC by AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) was examined in Xenopus oocytes co-expressing ENaCs and wild-type (WT) or mutant forms of the ubiquitin ligase Nedd 4-2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Late onset neurodegeneration in the Cln3 -/- mouse model of juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis is preceded by low level glial activation

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed morphological characterization of the Cln3 null mutant (Cln3(-/-)) mouse model of juvenile ceroid lipofuscinosis (JNCL) was conducted, which revealed a delayed onset neurodegenerative phenotype with no significant regional atrophy, but with widespread loss of hippocampal interneurons.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Serum and Glucocorticoid-Inducible Kinase SGK1 and the Na+/H+ Exchange Regulating Factor NHERF2 Synergize to Stimulate the Renal Outer Medullary K+ Channel ROMK1

TL;DR: NHERF2 andSGK1 interact to enhance ROMK1 activity in large part by enhancing the abundance of channel protein within the cell membrane, which allows the integration of genomic regulation and activation of SGK1 and NHERf2 in the control of ROMK 1 activity and renal K(+) excretion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Homodimerization of the Glucocorticoid Receptor Is Not Essential for Response Element Binding: Activation of the Phenylethanolamine N-Methyltransferase Gene by Dimerization-Defective Mutants

TL;DR: It is suggested that protein-DNA and protein-protein interactions that support such complexes are essential for activation of this type of gene, and that DNA binding of GR might be essential to survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

The biodiversity and ecology of Antarctic lakes: models for evolution

TL;DR: Molecular studies on Antarctic lake communities are still in their infancy, but there is clear evidence from some taxonomic groups, for example the Cyanobacteria, that there is endemicity.
