Make and Break the Alarmone:regulation of (p)ppGpp Synthetase/Hydrolase Enzymes in Bacteria [PDF]
Bacteria use dedicated mechanisms to respond adequately to fluctuating environments and to optimize their chances of survival in harsh conditions. One of the major stress responses used by virtually all bacteria relies on the sharp accumulation of an ...

5'-nucleotidases, nucleosides and their distribution in the brain: pathological and therapeutic implications [PDF]
Elements of the nucleoside system (nucleoside levels, 5'-nucleotidases (5'NTs) and other nucleoside metabolic enzymes, nucleoside transporters and nucleoside receptors) are unevenly distributed in the brain, suggesting that nucleosides have region ...

Studies on OX1 Orexin Receptor Coupling to Arachidonic Acid and Endocannabinoid Signaling [PDF]
Orexin A and orexin B are hypothalamic neuropeptides secreted by a relatively small group of neurons located within the hypothalamus. Orexins bind and activate two G-protein-coupled receptors termed OX1 orexin receptor and OX2 orexin receptor.
