Simulations Suggest Pharmacological Methods for Rescuing Long-Term Potentiation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical Biology, 7 Nov 2014, pp. 243-250, 2014
Congenital cognitive dysfunctions are frequently due to deficits in molecular pathways that underlie synaptic plasticity. For example, Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RTS) is due to a mutation in cbp, encoding the histone acetyltransferase CREB-binding protein (CBP).

The Phosphodiesterases in the Rat Pancreas [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1970
The purification of two phosphodiesterases found in the rat pancreas is described. The phosphodiesterase I, an enzyme of the snake venom type, has been purified about 500 times, the phosphodiesterase II, an enzyme of the spleen type, about 60 times. The phosphodiesterase I activity, optimal at a pH of about 9.0, is completely dependent on the presence ...

Retinal regions shape human and murine Müller cell proteome profile and functionality

open access: yesGlia, Volume 71, Issue 2, Page 391-414, February 2023., 2023
Main Points We defined Müller cells heterogeneity in the macular and peripheral human retina. Signaling pathways shaping this glial heterogeneity include proteins important for interaction with vesicular secretion, extracellular matrix and cell adhesion.

BolA Is Required for the Accurate Regulation of c-di-GMP, a Central Player in Biofilm Formation

open access: yesmBio, 2017
The bacterial second messenger cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP) is a nearly ubiquitous intracellular signaling molecule involved in the transition from the motile to the sessile/biofilm state in bacteria.

C-di-AMP Is a Second Messenger in Corynebacterium glutamicum That Regulates Expression of a Cell Wall-Related Peptidase via a Riboswitch

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Cyclic di-adenosine monophosphate (c-di-AMP) is a bacterial second messenger discovered in Bacillus subtilis and involved in potassium homeostasis, cell wall maintenance and/or DNA stress response.

Spontaneous center formation in Dictyostelium discoideum [PDF]

open access: yesScientific reports 9, no. 1 (2019): 3935, 2018
Dictyostelium discoideum (D.d.) is a widely studied amoeba due to its capabilities of development, survival, and self-organization. During aggregation it produces and relays a chemical signal (cAMP) which shows spirals and target centers. Nevertheless, the natural emergence of these structures is still not well understood.

Nutrient addition modifies phosphatase activities along an altitudinal gradient in a tropical montane forest in Southern Ecuador

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2016
Atmospheric nutrient deposition and climate change are expected to endanger the diversity of tropical forest ecosystems. Nitrogen (N) deposition might influence nutrient fluxes beyond the N cycle by a concomitant increased demand for other nutritional ...

The evolution and structure of snake venom phosphodiesterase (svPDE) highlight its importance in venom actions

open access: yeseLife, 2023
For decades, studies of snake venoms focused on the venom-ome-specific toxins (VSTs). VSTs are dominant soluble proteins believed to contribute to the main venomous effects and emerged into gene clusters for fast adaptation and diversification of snake ...
