Enhanced protein expression in the baculovirus/insect cell system using engineered SUMO fusions

TL;DR: The SUMOstar system will make significant impact in difficult-to-express proteins and especially to those proteins that require the native N-terminal residue for function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperactive Innate Immunity Causes Degeneration of Dopamine Neurons upon Altering Activity of Cdk5

TL;DR: A molecular pathway that links innate immunity to age-dependent loss of dopaminergic neurons in Drosophila is identified and it is found that altering the expression of the activating subunit of the Cdk5 protein kinase causes severe disruption of autophagy.

Metastatic Adenocarcinoma Cell Lines with Multipotent Progenitor Activity

TL;DR: The in vitro creation of a mouse cell line, selected for growth as self-renewing stem/progenitor cells, which manifests many in vivo properties of aggressive prostate cancer suggests that transformed prostate progenitor cells preferentially differentiate toward luminal cells and recapitulate many characteristics of the human disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-renewing Pten-/- TP53-/- protospheres produce metastatic adenocarcinoma cell lines with multipotent progenitor activity.

TL;DR: In this paper, a mouse cell line, selected for growth as self-renewing stem/progenitor cells, which manifests many in vivo properties of aggressive prostate cancer was created.
