Intrinsic structural disorder in cytoskeletal proteins. [PDF]
, 2013 Cytoskeleton, the internal scaffold of the cell, displays an exceptional combination of stability and dynamics. It is composed of three major filamentous networks, microfilaments (actin filaments), intermediate filaments (neurofilaments), and ...

Proteomic analysis of cortical neuronal cultures treated with poly-arginine peptide-18 (R18) and exposed to glutamic acid excitotoxicity [PDF]
, 2019 Poly-arginine peptide-18 (R18) has recently emerged as a highly effective neuroprotective agent in experimental stroke models, and is particularly efficacious in protecting cortical neurons against glutamic acid excitotoxicity.

The kinetic mechanism of bacterial ribosome recycling. [PDF]
, 2017 Bacterial ribosome recycling requires breakdown of the post-termination complex (PoTC), comprising a messenger RNA (mRNA) and an uncharged transfer RNA (tRNA) cognate to the terminal mRNA codon bound to the 70S ribosome.

To translate, or not to translate: viral and host mRNA regulation by interferon-stimulated genes. [PDF]
, 2015 Type I interferon (IFN) is one of the first lines of cellular defense against viral pathogens. As a result of IFN signaling, a wide array of IFN-stimulated gene (ISG) products is upregulated to target different stages of the viral life cycle.

The isolation and characterisation of temperature-dependent Ricin A chain molecules in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
, 2007 Ricin is a heterodimeric plant protein that is potently toxic to mammalian cells. Toxicity results from the catalytic depurination of eukaryotic ribosomes by ricin A chain (RTA) that follows toxin endocytosis to, and translocation across, the ...

Full-length prepro-alpha-factor can be translocated across the mammalian microsomal membrane only if translation has not terminated. [PDF]
, 1988 We have previously shown that fully synthesized prepro-alpha-factor (pp alpha F), the precursor for the yeast pheromone alpha-factor, can be translocated posttranslationally across yeast rough microsomal (RM) membranes from a soluble, ribosome-free pool.

Translational control by the multi-KH domain protein Scp160 [PDF]
, 2010 The control of mRNA translation mediated by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) is a key player in modulating gene expression. In S. cerevisiae, the multi-KH domain protein Scp160 associates with a large number of mRNAs and is present on membrane-bound and, to a

Cloning and expression of a human kinesin heavy chain gene: interaction of the COOH-terminal domain with cytoplasmic microtubules in transfected CV-1 cells. [PDF]
, 1992 To understand the interactions between the microtubule-based motor protein kinesin and intracellular components, we have expressed the kinesin heavy chain and its different domains in CV-1 monkey kidney epithelial cells and examined their distributions ...

A single H/ACA small nucleolar RNA mediates tumor suppression downstream of oncogenic RAS. [PDF]
, 2019 Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are a diverse group of non-coding RNAs that direct chemical modifications at specific residues on other RNA molecules, primarily on ribosomal RNA (rRNA).
