Prolyl Isomerase Pin1 Regulates Axon Guidance by Stabilizing CRMP2A Selectively in Distal Axons
Axon guidance relies on precise translation of extracellular signal gradients into local changes in cytoskeletal dynamics, but the molecular mechanisms regulating dose-dependent responses of growth cones are still poorly understood.

Accumulation of properly folded human type III procollagen molecules in specific intracellular membranous compartments in the yeast Pichia pastoris [PDF]
It was recently reported that co-expression of the proal(III) chain of human type III procollagen with the subunits of human prolyl 4-hydroxylase in Pichia pastoris produces fully hydroxylated and properly folded recombinant type III procollagen ...

ABSTRACT Heat stress increasingly threatens global wheat production as extreme temperature events become more frequent under climate change. To better understand the molecular basis of thermotolerance, we evaluated the heat responses of 30 elite wheat accessions and identified substantial natural variation in seedling survival (26.7%), plant height (26.

Abstract The isoproterenol‐induced myocardial infarction model is a well‐established experimental approach for studying cardiac injury and testing potential protective treatments. By overstimulating beta‐adrenergic receptors, this model closely reproduces key features of human heart attacks, including oxidative damage, calcium imbalance, inflammatory ...

PIN1 in Cell Cycle Control and Cancer
Cell cycle progression is tightly controlled by many cell cycle-regulatory proteins that are in turn regulated by a family of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) through protein phosphorylation. The peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase PIN1 provides a further

Effect of cyclosporine on hepatic energy status and on fructose metabolism after portacaval shunt in dog as monitored by phosphorus‐31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in vivo [PDF]
The effect of cyclosporin A on the hepatic energy status and intracellular pH of the liver and its response to a fructose challenge has been investigated using in vivo phosphorus‐31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in dogs.

Regulation of tau by peptidyl-prolyl isomerases
Tau is an intrinsically disordered protein found abundantly in axons, where it binds to microtubules. Since tau is a central player in the dynamic microtubule network, it is highly regulated by post-translational modifications. Abnormal hyperphosphorylation and aggregation of tau characterize a group of diseases called tauopathies.

Effect of MF3 (peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase) protein from Pseudomonas fluorescens on ex vitro adaptation and post-adaptation of hardy kiwi (Actinidia arguta Planch. ex Miq.) plants [PDF]
The effect of bacterial protein (peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase) in different concentrations on ex vitro adaptation and post-adaptation of Actinidia arguta Planch. ex Miq. plants of cultivar Geneva was investigated. The results indicating the growth-
