Protein database of Caenorhabditis elegans

Journal of Chromatography B, 2003
Whole genome sequencing of the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is a prominent achievement in genomics and uncovers the existence of enormous known and unknown gene products. Characterization and linking of all gene products are the next challenging theme of biology. Genome-wide researches are already progressing on C. elegans and the fruits

Chaperone-Interacting TPR Proteins in Caenorhabditis elegans

Journal of Molecular Biology, 2013
The ATP-hydrolyzing molecular chaperones Hsc70/Hsp70 and Hsp90 bind a diverse set of tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR)-containing cofactors via their C-terminal peptide motifs IEEVD and MEEVD. These cochaperones contribute to substrate turnover and confer specific activities to the chaperones.

Claudin Family Proteins in Caenorhabditis elegans

2011
In the last decade, the claudin family of integral membrane proteins has been identified as the major protein component of the tight junctions in all vertebrates. The claudin superfamily proteins also function to regulate channel activity, intercellular signaling, and cell morphology.

Yolk proteins of Caenorhabditis elegans

Developmental Biology, 1983
A group of proteins judged on several criteria to be yolk proteins have been isolated from a homogenate of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Comparison of partial proteolysis fragments indicates that the two bands of a 170,000-dalton doublet (yp170) are closely related; bands observed at 115,000 daltons (yp115) and 88,000 daltons (yp88) appear to be

Tat-mediated protein delivery in living Caenorhabditis elegans

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2007
The Tat protein from HIV-1 fused with heterologous proteins traverses biological membranes in a transcellular process called: protein transduction. This has already been successfully exploited in various biological models, but never in the nematode worm Caenorhabditis elegans. TAT-eGFP or GST-eGFP proteins were fed to C.

Protein glycosylation lessons from Caenorhabditis elegans

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 2004
From observations on human diseases and mutant mice, it has become clear that glycosylation plays a major role in metazoan development. Caenorhabditis elegans provides powerful tools to study this problem that are not available in men or mice. The worm has many genes homologous to mammalian genes involved in glycosylation.

Protein Metabolism and Lifespan in Caenorhabditis elegans

2010
Lifespan of the versatile model system Caenorhabditis elegans can be extended by a decrease of insulin/IGF-1 signaling, TOR signaling, mitochondrial function, protein synthesis and dietary intake. The exact molecular mechanisms by which these modulations confer increased life expectancy are yet to be determined but increased stress resistance and ...

A two-dimensional protein map of Caenorhabditis elegans

ELECTROPHORESIS, 2001
A protein map of Caenorhabditis elegans was constructed by using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis followed by peptide mass fingerprinting. A whole worm extract of a mixed population was separated on immobilized pH gradient strips 4-7 L, 3-10 NL, 6-11 L and 12% sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel eletrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) gels.

The Heterotrimeric G Protein Genes of Caenorhabditis elegans

2000
Caenorhabditis elegans is the first animal, and the first multicellular organism, for which the complete genomic sequence has been determined (The C. elegans Sequencing Consortium 1998). One of the new possibilities in post-sequence genetics is the immediate analysis of complete gene families.
