TLDR
The APO-1 antigen was expressed upon transfection of APo-1 cDNA into BL60-P7 Burkitt's lymphoma cells and conferred sensitivity towards anti-APO- 1-induced apoptosis to the transfectants.

Apoptosis by death factor.

TL;DR: This work was supported in part by Grants-in-Aid from the Ministry of Education, Science, and Culture of Japan and by a Research Grant from the Princess Takamatsu Cancer Research Fund, and performed in part through Special Coordination Funds of the Science and Technology Agency of the Japanese Government.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Fas Death Factor

TL;DR: Fas ligand (FasL), a cell surface molecule belonging to the tumor necrosis factor family, binds to its receptor Fas, thus inducing apoptosis of Fas-bearing cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

FLICE, a novel FADD-homologous ICE/CED-3-like protease, is recruited to the CD95 (Fas/APO-1) death--inducing signaling complex.

TL;DR: This work utilized nano-electrospray tandem mass spectrometry to identify CAP3 and CAP4, components of the CD95 (Fas/APO-1) death-inducing signaling complex, and found a novel 55 kDa protein, designated FLICE, which has homology to both FADD and the ICE/CED-3 family of cysteine proteases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular cloning and expression of the fas ligand, a novel member of the tumor necrosis factor family

TL;DR: Northern hybridization revealed that Fas ligand is expressed in activated splenocytes and thymocytes, consistent with its involvement in T cell-mediated cytotoxicity and in several nonlymphoid tissues, such as testis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytotoxicity-dependent APO-1 (Fas/CD95)-associated proteins form a death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) with the receptor.

TL;DR: The data suggest that in vivo CAP1–4 are the APO‐1 apoptosis‐transducing molecules.

Cleavage of Structural Proteins during the Assembly of the Head of Bacteriophage T4

TL;DR: Using an improved method of gel electrophoresis, many hitherto unknown proteins have been found in bacteriophage T4 and some of these have been identified with specific gene products.
Journal ArticleDOI

A rapid and sensitive method for the quantitation of microgram quantities of protein utilizing the principle of protein-dye binding

TL;DR: This assay is very reproducible and rapid with the dye binding process virtually complete in approximately 2 min with good color stability for 1 hr with little or no interference from cations such as sodium or potassium nor from carbohydrates such as sucrose.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA sequencing with chain-terminating inhibitors

TL;DR: A new method for determining nucleotide sequences in DNA is described, which makes use of the 2',3'-dideoxy and arabinon nucleoside analogues of the normal deoxynucleoside triphosphates, which act as specific chain-terminating inhibitors of DNA polymerase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrophoretic transfer of proteins from polyacrylamide gels to nitrocellulose sheets: procedure and some applications.

TL;DR: A method has been devised for the electrophoretic transfer of proteins from polyacrylamide gels to nitrocellulose sheets that results in quantitative transfer of ribosomal proteins from gels containing urea.
Journal ArticleDOI

A simple method for displaying the hydropathic character of a protein

TL;DR: A computer program that progressively evaluates the hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of a protein along its amino acid sequence has been devised and its simplicity and its graphic nature make it a very useful tool for the evaluation of protein structures.
