Redox regulation of c-Jun DNA binding by reversible S-glutathiolation

TL;DR: Analysis of the purified recombinant c‐Jun DNA binding domain for redox‐dependent thiol modifications and concomitant changes in DNA binding activity shows that changes in the ratio of reduced to oxidized glutathione provide the potential to oxidize c‐ Jun sulfhydryls by mechanisms that include both protein disulfide formation and S‐glutathiolation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The mitochondrial uncoupling proteins.

TL;DR: The uncoupling proteins (UCPs) are transporters that mediate a regulated discharge of the proton gradient that is generated by the respiratory chain, and can serve functions such as thermogenesis, maintenance of the redox balance, or reduction in the production of reactive oxygen species.
Journal ArticleDOI

The yefM-yoeB Toxin-Antitoxin Systems of Escherichia coli and Streptococcus pneumoniae: Functional and Structural Correlation

TL;DR: It is shown that overproduction of YoeB(Spn) is toxic to Escherichia coli cells, leading to severe inhibition of cell growth and to a reduction in cell viability; this toxicity was more pronounced in an E. coli B strain than in two E.E. coli K-12 strains.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of a pathogenesis-related protein 4 (PR-4) induced in Capsicum chinense L3 plants with dual RNase and DNase activities

TL;DR: A C. chinense PR-4 protein induced during both the compatible and the incompatible interactions has been identified and it is shown that the purified protein has both RNase and DNase activity, although its contribution to the bulk activity of nucleases in infected plants is very low.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insulin/insulin-like growth factor-I hybrid receptors with high affinity for insulin are developmentally regulated during neurogenesis.

TL;DR: The high-affinity/low-discriminative IR/IGFR hybrids predominantly found in a proliferative stage of neurogenesis can mediate the effects of proinsulin and insulin, previously demonstrated in organoculture at this stage.
