Structural Determinants for Binding of Sorting Nexin 17 (SNX17) to the Cytoplasmic Adaptor Protein Krev Interaction Trapped 1 (KRIT1) [PDF]
Sorting nexin 17 (SNX17) is a member of the family of cytoplasmic sorting nexin adaptor proteins that regulate endosomal trafficking of cell surface proteins. SNX17 localizes to early endosomes where it directly binds NPX(Y/F) motifs in the cytoplasmic tails of its target receptors to mediate their rates of endocytic internalization, recycling, and/or ...

Signalling through cerebral cavernous malformation protein networks [PDF]
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are neurovascular abnormalities characterized by thin, leaky blood vessels resulting in lesions that predispose to haemorrhages, stroke, epilepsy and focal neurological deficits.

KRIT1 association with the integrin-binding protein ICAP-1: a new direction in the elucidation of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM1) pathogenesis [PDF]
Mutations in KRIT1, a protein initially identified based on a yeast two-hybrid interaction with the RAS-family GTPase RAP1A, are responsible for the development of the inherited vascular disorder cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM1). As the function of the KRIT1 protein and its role in CCM pathogenesis remain unknown, we performed yeast two-hybrid ...

Cancer-secreted exosomal miR-21-5p induces angiogenesis and vascular permeability by targeting KRIT1
Cancer-secreted exosomes are critical mediators of cancer-host crosstalk. In the present study, we showed the delivery of miR-21-5p from colorectal cancer (CRC) cells to endothelial cells via exosomes increased the amount of miR-21-5p in recipient cells.

Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are vascular lesions that affect predominantly microvasculature in the brain and spinal cord. CCM can occur either in sporadic or familial form, characterized by autosomal dominant inheritance and development of ...

Phospholipase Cε Modulates Rap1 Activity and the Endothelial Barrier. [PDF]
The phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C, PLCε, is a unique signaling protein with known roles in regulating cardiac myocyte growth, astrocyte inflammatory signaling, and tumor formation. PLCε is also expressed in endothelial cells, however its role

Silencing <i>KRIT1</i> Partially Reverses the Effects of Disturbed Flow on the Endothelial Cell Transcriptome. [PDF]
Endothelial cells respond to forces generated by laminar blood flow with changes in vasodilation, anticoagulant, fibrinolytic, or anti-inflammatory functions which preserve vessel patency.

A Novel CCM2 Gene Mutation Associated With Cerebral Cavernous Malformation
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are the second most prevalent type of vascular malformation within the central nervous system. CCMs occur in two forms—sporadic and familial—the latter of which has an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance with ...
