Nongenotropic, sex-nonspecific signaling through the estrogen or androgen receptors: dissociation from transcriptional activity.

TL;DR: A novel paradigm of sex steroid action on osteoblasts, osteocytes, embryonic fibroblasts, and HeLa cells involving activation of a Src/Shc/ERK signaling pathway and attenuating apoptosis is demonstrated, providing proof of principle for the development of function-specific-as opposed to tissue-selective-and gender-neutral pharmacotherapeutics.

Copper Active Sites in Biology

TL;DR: This review presents in depth discussions of all these classes of Cu enzymes and the correlations within and among these classes, as well as the present understanding of the enzymology, kinetics, geometric structures, electronic structures and the reaction mechanisms these have elucidated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Unique Structure for Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Bound to GW572016 (Lapatinib): Relationships among Protein Conformation, Inhibitor Off-Rate, and Receptor Activity in Tumor Cells

TL;DR: The slow off-rate ofGW572016 correlates with a prolonged down-regulation of receptor tyrosine phosphorylation in tumor cells and the differences in the off-rates of these drugs and the ability of GW572016 to inhibit ErbB-2 can be explained by the enzyme-inhibitor structures.

Inhibition of Human Caspases by Peptide-based and Macromolecular Inhibitors

TL;DR: The results obtained with peptide-based inhibitors are in accord with those predicted from the substrate specificity studies described earlier, and the cowpox serpin CrmA is a potent and selective inhibitor of Group I and most Group III caspases, suggesting that this virus facilitates infection through inhibition of both apoptosis and the host inflammatory response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural Basis for the Inhibition of Caspase-3 by XIAP

TL;DR: The crystal structure of the second BIR domain of XIAP (BIR2) in complex with caspase-3, at a resolution of 2.7 A, is reported, revealing the structural basis for inhibition and the mechanism of inhibition is due to a steric blockade prohibitive of substrate binding.

Kinetics of the reversible inhibition of enzyme-catalysed reactions by tight-binding inhibitors

TL;DR: A general rate equation has been derived and shown to be quadratic with square and linear terms in v which represents that true initial steady-state velocity of enzymic reactions that are reversibly inhibited by a substrate analogue at concentrations comparable to that of the enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crystal structures of Escherichia coli and Lactobacillus casei dihydrofolate reductase refined at 1.7 A resolution. I. General features and binding of methotrexate.

TL;DR: Refinement has led to a revised description of the details of methotrexate binding, and a hypothetical model for substrate binding is proposed in which the pteridine ring is turned upside down while all protein and solvent atoms remain fixed.

Competitive inhibition of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme a reductase by ML-236A and ML-236B fungal metabolites, having hypocholesterolemic activity

TL;DR: The experiments reported in this paper demonstrate that MG236A and ML-236B inhibit specifically 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl (HMG)CoA reductase (EC 1 .I .1.34), the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthetic pathway, without affecting the rest of the enzymes involved in this pathway, and that the inhibition is competitive with respect to the substrate HMG-CoA.
