Colocalization of 14-3-3 proteins with SOD1 in Lewy body-like hyaline inclusions in familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis cases and the animal model. [PDF]
Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) is a major component of Lewy body-like hyaline inclusion (LBHI) found in the postmortem tissue of SOD1-linked familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) patients. In our recent studies, 14-3-3 proteins have been found

Envelope Proteins in Salmonella minnesota Mutants [PDF]
Envelope proteins of one smooth (S) strain and seven rough (R) mutants of Salmonella minnesota were examined by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. All strains gave similar band patterns although some consistent differences were detected.

Defective Proteasome Delivery of Polyubiquitinated Proteins by Ubiquilin-2 Proteins Containing ALS Mutations. [PDF]
Ubiquilin proteins facilitate delivery of ubiquitinated proteins to the proteasome for degradation. Interest in the proteins has been heightened by the discovery that gene mutations in UBQLN2 cause dominant inheritance of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ...
