A Burkholderia pseudomallei macrophage infectivity potentiator-like protein has rapamycin-inhibitable peptidylprolyl isomerase activity and pleiotropic effects on virulence. [PDF]
Macrophage infectivity potentiators (Mips) are a group of virulence factors encoded by pathogenic bacteria such as Legionella, Chlamydia, and Neisseria species.

The Peptidylprolyl cis/trans-Isomerase Pin1 Modulates Stress-induced Dephosphorylation of Tau in Neurons [PDF]
Deregulation of Tau phosphorylation is a key question in Alzheimer disease pathogenesis. Recently, Pin1, a peptidylprolyl cis/trans-isomerase, was proposed to be a new modulator in Tau phosphorylation in Alzheimer disease.

Regulation of Bruton Tyrosine Kinase by the Peptidylprolyl Isomerase Pin1 [PDF]
Bruton tyrosine kinase (Btk) is expressed in B-lymphocytes. Mutations in Btk cause X-linked agammaglobulinemia in humans. However, the mechanism of activation and signaling of this enzyme has not been fully investigated. We have here shown that the peptidylprolyl cis/trans isomerase (PPIase) Pin1 is a negative regulator of Btk, controlling its ...

Distribution of Peptidyl-Prolyl Isomerase (PPIase) in the Archaea
Cis-trans isomerization of the peptide bond prior to proline is an intrinsically slow process but plays an essential role in protein folding. In vivo cis-trans isomerization reaction is catalyzed by Peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (PPIases), a category of ...

Involvement of Peptidylprolyl cis / trans Isomerases in Enterococcus faecalis Virulence [PDF]
ABSTRACT Peptidylprolyl cis / trans isomerases (PPIases) are enzymes involved in protein folding. Analysis of the genome sequence of Enterococcus faecalis V583 allowed for identification of 3 PPIases carrying genes.

Post-translational Modifications of the Peptidyl-Prolyl Isomerase Pin1
The peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase (PPIase) Pin1 is a unique enzyme that only binds to Ser/Thr-Pro peptide motifs after phosphorylation and regulates the conformational changes of the bond.

Peptidyl-Prolyl Cis/Trans Isomerase Pin1 and Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia with cognitive decline. The neuropathology of AD is characterized by intracellular aggregation of neurofibrillary tangles consisting of hyperphosphorylated tau and extracellular deposition of ...

Housekeeping gene expression variability in differentiating and non-differentiating 3T3-L1 cells
Normalization is a crucial step in gene expression analysis to avoid misinterpretation. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to measure the expression of 10 candidate housekeeping genes in non-differentiated (ND) and ...
