Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals genetic diversity in the endosymbiont Hamiltonella between native and exotic populations of Bemisia tabaci from Brazil. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 The whitefly, Bemisia tabaci, is a species complex of more than 40 cryptic species and a major agricultural pest. It causes extensive damage to plants mainly by transmitting plant viruses. There is still a lack of genomic data available for the different

Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2022 Unlike healthy, non-transformed cells, the proteostasis network of cancer cells is taxed to produce proteins involved in tumor development. Cancer cells have a higher dependency on molecular chaperones to maintain proteostasis.

Affinity of chaperonin-60 for a protein substrate and its modulation by nucleotides and chaperonin-10 [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1994 The refolding of lactate dehydrogenase fully unfolded in 4 M guanidinium chloride was initiated by dilution into assay buffer, and the emergence of active enzyme was recorded. This was performed in the presence of the following chaperonin complexes in the refolding medium: chaperonin-60 (cpn60), cpn60-MgATP, cpn60-Mgp[NH]ppA, cpn60-MgADP in both the ...

Oncogenic fusion protein BCR-FGFR1 requires the breakpoint cluster region-mediated oligomerization and chaperonin Hsp90 for activation. [PDF]
, 2020 Mutation and translocation of fibroblast growth factor receptors often lead to aberrant signaling and cancer. This work focuses on the t(8;22)(p11;q11) chromosomal translocation which creates the breakpoint cluster region (BCR) fibroblast growth factor ...

The effect of nucleotides and mitochondrial chaperonin 10 on the structure and chaperone activity of mitochondrial chaperonin 60 [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 2001 Mitochondrial chaperonins are necessary for the folding of newly imported and stress‐denatured mitochondrial proteins. The goal of this study was to investigate the structure and function of the mammalian mitochondrial chaperonin system. We present evidence that the 60 kDa chaperonin (mt‐cpn60) exists in solution in dynamic equilibrium between monomers,

DNA vaccines against dengue virus type 2 based on truncate envelope protein or its domain III. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Two DNA vaccines were constructed encoding the ectodomain (domains I, II and III) of the DENV2 envelope protein (pE1D2) or only its domain III (pE2D2), fused to the human tissue plasminogen activator signal peptide (t-PA). The expression and secretion of
