Does the Modification of Serine 477 of DNA Mismatch Repair Protein MLH1 Play a Role in Cell Proliferation? [PDF]
MutLα, a heterodimer consisting of MLH1 and PMS2, is a key player of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) system and of great importance to correct incorporation errors that occur during DNA replication. Previously, we identified that posttranslational phosphorylation of MLH1 at amino acid position serine 477 can switch off MMR activity in vitro.

Hydrophobic mismatch is a key factor in protein transport across lipid bilayer membranes via the Tat pathway [PDF]
The twin-arginine translocation (Tat) pathway transports folded proteins across membranes in bacteria, thylakoids, plant mitochondria, and archaea. In most species, the active Tat machinery consists of three independent subunits: TatA, TatB, and TatC ...

Effects of Ce content on the modification of Mg2Si phase in Mg-5Al-2Si alloy
The effect of Ce content (0–1.6 wt.%) on the modification of Mg2Si phase in the as-cast Mg-5Al-2Si alloy was investigated. The original Chinese script type Mg2Si phase was refined distinctly and transformed to dispersive block shape gradually by adding ...
