Serine/Threonine Protein Phosphatase 2A Regulates the Transport of Axonal Mitochondria

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2022
Microtubule-based transport provides mitochondria to distant regions of neurons and is essential for neuronal health. To identify compounds that increase mitochondrial motility, we screened 1,641 small-molecules in a high-throughput screening platform ...

Identification of Dynamic Changes in Proteins Associated with the Cellular Cytoskeleton after Exposure to Okadaic Acid

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2013
Exposure of cells to the diarrhetic shellfish poison, okadaic acid, leads to a dramatic reorganization of cytoskeletal architecture and loss of cell-cell contact.

Phosphorylated claspin interacts with a phosphate-binding site in the kinase domain of Chk1 during ATR-mediated activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Claspin is essential for the ATR-dependent activation of Chk1 in Xenopus egg extracts containing incompletely replicated or UV-damaged DNA. The activated form of Claspin contains two repeated phosphopeptide motifs that mediate its binding to Chk1.

Mechanism of the stimulatory action of okadaic acid on lipolysis in rat fat cells

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2000
Okadaic acid was found to induce concentration- and time-dependent lipolysis in rat fat cells in the absence of lipolytic hormones, but it did not significantly increase the total hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) activity in these fat cells, the activity ...

Okadaic Acid: A Tool to Study the Hippo Pathway

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2013
Mammalian Ste20-like kinases 1 and 2 (MST1 and MST2) are activated in NIH3T3 cells exposed to okadaic acid. The Hippo pathway is a newly emerging signaling that functions as a tumor suppressor.

The role of phosphorylation in the elasticity of the tethers that connect telomeres of separating anaphase chromosomes

open access: yesNucleus, 2020
Elastic tethers, connecting telomeres of all separating anaphase chromosome pairs, lose elasticity when they lengthen during anaphase. Treatment with phosphatase inhibitor CalyculinA causes anaphase chromosomes to move backwards after they reach the ...

Identification of a Phosphorylation Site for Calcium/Calmodulindependent Protein Kinase II in the NR2B Subunit of the N-Methyl-D-aspartate Receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) subtype of excitatory glutamate receptors plays critical roles in embryonic and adult synaptic plasticity in the central nervous system.

Effect of okadaic acid on utilization of lipoprotein-derived cholesteryl esters by rat steroidogenic cells.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1994
This study examines various functional, biochemical, and structural changes in rat adrenocortical and ovarian granulosa cells that could account for the decline in lipoprotein-supported hormone production after cell treatment with the protein phosphatase

Oral Toxicity of Okadaic Acid in Mice: Study of Lethality, Organ Damage, Distribution and Effects on Detoxifying Gene Expression

open access: yesToxins, 2013
In vivo, after administration by gavage to mice and rats, okadaic acid has been reported to produce lesions in liver, small intestine and forestomach.
