Ommochromes in invertebrates: biochemistry and cell biology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, 2018
ABSTRACTOmmochromes are widely occurring coloured molecules of invertebrates, arising from tryptophan catabolism through the so‐called Tryptophan → Ommochrome pathway. They are mainly known to mediate compound eye vision, as well as reversible and irreversible colour patterning. Ommochromes might also be involved in cell homeostasis by detoxifying free

The Biochemistry and Cell Biology of Antigen Processing and Presentation

Annual Review of Immunology, 1993
T lymphocytes with alpha beta receptors recognize antigen in association with the polymorphic products of the class I and class II loci of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). This presentation of antigen results from the intracellular generation of protein fragments, and the binding and transport to the cell surface of these peptides in stable ...

The biochemistry and cell biology of photorespiration

Critical Reviews in Plant Sciences, 1986
Since the discovery of RuBP oxygenase activity more than a decade ago, our understanding of the sequence of metabolic events associated with photorespiratory activity in C3 plants has matured considerably. A coherent model of photorespiratory metabolism has been substantiated by a wide variety of experimental approaches and most photorespiratory ...

Talin: Biochemistry and Cell Biology

Advances in Molecular and Cell Biology, 1990
Publisher Summary This chapter describes the biochemistry and cell biology of talin and discusses its possible functions at the interface between the actin cytoskeleton and the plasma membrane in regions where cells interact with the extracellular matrix (ECM).

Biochemistry and cell biology of mammalian scavenger receptors

Atherosclerosis, 2005
Scavenger receptors are integral membrane proteins that bind a wide variety of ligands including modified or oxidised low-density lipoproteins, apoptotic cells and pathogens. Modified low-density lipoprotein accumulation is thought to be an early event in vascular disease and thus scavenger receptor function is critical in this context.

Biochemistry and cell biology of phospholipase D in human neutrophils

Chemistry and Physics of Lipids, 1996
Neutrophils play a major role host defense against invading microbes. Recent studies have emphasized the importance of the phospholipase D (PLD) in the signalling cascade leading to neutrophil activation. Phospholipase D catalyzes the hydrolysis of phospholipids to generate phosphatidic acid with secondarily generation of diradylglycerol; both of these

Biochemistry, molecular biology and cell biology of gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonists

Current Opinion in Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2011
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors are not only detected in the central nervous system but also in tissues such as ovary, endometrium, breast, gastrointestinal system, placenta and malignant tumors of ovary and breast. The direct role of GnRH-antagonists in ovarian function, implantation, cancer pathogenesis and treatment is under ...
