The Dual Specificity Phosphatases M3/6 and MKP-3 Are Highly Selective for Inactivation of Distinct Mitogen-activated Protein Kinases

TL;DR: Two new dual specificity phosphatases of the CL100/MKP-1 family that are selective for inactivating ERK or JNK/SAPK and p38 MAP kinases when expressed in COS-7 cells are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Missense mutation clustering in the survival motor neuron gene: a role for a conserved tyrosine and glycine rich region of the protein in RNA metabolism?

TL;DR: A novel missense mutation is described and the subsequent identification of a triplicated tyrosine-glycine (Y-G) peptide sequence at the C-terminal of SMN which encompasses each of the three predicted amino acid sequence substitutions.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase Phosphatase-3 N-terminal Noncatalytic Region Is Responsible for Tight Substrate Binding and Enzymatic Specificity

TL;DR: It is shown that MKP-3 enzymatic specificity is paralleled by tight binding to both ERK1 and ERK2 while, in contrast, little or no interaction with either c-Jun N-terminal kinase/stress activated protein kinase (JNK/SAPK) or p38 MAP kinases was detected.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crosses of Nod Mice with the Related Non Strain - a Polygenic Model for Iddm

TL;DR: This study shows that the diabetogenic phenotype can be achieved through the actions of variable combinations of MHC-unlinked genes and a diabetogenesis MHC haplotype through outcrossing NOD mice to other inbred strains congenic for the NOD M HC haplotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Syntenic Organization of the Mouse Distal Chromosome 7 Imprinting Cluster and the Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome Region in Chromosome 11p15.5

TL;DR: This study establishes a complete contig of clones along the murine imprinting cluster on distal chromosome 7 syntenic with the human imprinting region at 11p15.5 associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome and opens the way for a systematic analysis of the cluster by genetic manipulation in the mouse.
