A foundation for provitamin A biofortification of maize: genome-wide association and genomic prediction models of carotenoid levels. [PDF]

, 2014
Efforts are underway for development of crops with improved levels of provitamin A carotenoids to help combat dietary vitamin A deficiency. As a global staple crop with considerable variation in kernel carotenoid composition, maize (Zea mays L.) could ...

Bacillus anthracis edema factor substrate specificity: evidence for new modes of action [PDF]

, 2012
Since the isolation of Bacillus anthracis exotoxins in the 1960s, the detrimental activity of edema factor (EF) was considered as adenylyl cyclase activity only.

The Chemerin Receptor CMKLR1 Requires Full‐Length Chemerin for High Affinity in Contrast to GPR1 as Demonstrated by a New Nanoluciferase‐Based Binding Assay

ChemMedChem, Volume 17, Issue 23, December 5, 2022., 2022
The adipokine chemerin and the short peptide agonist chemerin‐9 activate two GPCRs: CMKLR1 and GPR1. Here, we established a nanoluciferase based binding assay to analyze differences in ligand binding. For GPR1, both ligands show high affinity and comparable binding.

Treatment‐related adverse events of antibody–drug conjugates in clinical trials: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Cancer, Volume 129, Issue 2, Page 283-295, 15 January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) have complex molecular structures and have been tested in numerous clinical trials. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms of their toxicity when applied in medical practice is of high importance. Methods In a systematic review and meta‐analysis of data gathered from different scientific databases ...

Wiring the senses: Factors that regulate peripheral axon pathfinding in sensory systems

Developmental Dynamics, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 81-103, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Sensory neurons of the head are the ones that transmit the information about the external world to our brain for its processing. Axons from cranial sensory neurons sense different chemoattractant and chemorepulsive molecules during the journey and in the target tissue to establish the precise innervation with brain neurons and/or receptor ...

Nucleotidyl Cyclase Activity of Particulate Guanylyl Cyclase A: Comparison with Particulate Guanylyl Cyclases E and F, Soluble Guanylyl Cyclase and Bacterial Adenylyl Cyclases Cyaa and Edema Factor

PLoS ONE, 2013
Guanylyl cyclases (GCs) regulate many physiological processes by catalyzing the synthesis of the second messenger cGMP. The GC family consists of seven particulate GCs (pGCs) and a nitric oxide-activated soluble GC (sGC). Rat sGC α1β1 possesses much broader substrate specificity than previously assumed.
