Agrin isoforms and their role in synaptogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Agrin is thought to mediate the motor neuron-induced aggregation of synaptic proteins on the surface of muscle fibers at neuromuscular junctions. Recent experiments provide direct evidence in support of this hypothesis, reveal the nature of agrin ...

Isoform-selective susceptibility of DISC1/phosphodiesterase-4 complexes to dissociation by elevated intracellular cAMP levels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Disrupted-in-schizophrenia 1 (DISC1) is a genetic susceptibility factor for schizophrenia and related severe psychiatric conditions. DISC1 is a multifunctional scaffold protein that is able to interact with several proteins, including the independently ...

The FU gene and its possible protein isoforms [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2004
Abstract Background FU is the human homologue of the Drosophila gene fused whose product fused is a positive regulator of the transcription factor Cubitus interruptus (Ci). Thus, FU may act as a regulator of the human counterparts of Ci, the GLI transcription factors.

Identification and classification of innexin gene transcripts in the central nervous system of the terrestrial slug Limax valentianus.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Intercellular gap junction channels and single-membrane channels have been reported to regulate electrical synapse and the brain function. Innexin is known as a gap junction-related protein in invertebrates and is involved in the formation of ...

The Difference in Structural States between Canonical Proteins and Their Isoforms Established by Proteome-Wide Bioinformatics Analysis

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Alternative splicing is an important means of generating the protein diversity necessary for cellular functions. Hence, there is a growing interest in assessing the structural and functional impact of alternative protein isoforms. Typically, experimental

Human naive CD8 T cells down-regulate expression of the WNT pathway transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 and transcription factor 7 (T cell factor-1) following antigen encounter in vitro and in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 (LEF1) and transcription factor 7 (TCF7) (T cell factor-1 (TCF-1)) are downstream effectors of the WNT signaling pathway, which is a critical regulator of T cell development in the thymus.

Nuclear tau and its potential role in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tau protein, found in both neuronal and non-neuronal cells, forms aggregates in neurons that constitutes one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Trafficking of the cellular isoform of the prion protein

open access: yesBiomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 1999
Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies form a group of fatal neurodegenerative disorders that have the unique property of being infectious, sporadic or genetic in origin. Although the nature of the responsible agent of these diseases is uncertain, it is clear that a protein called PrPSc has a central role in their pathology.

The Genetic Regulation of Alternative Splicing in Populus deltoides

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Alternative splicing (AS) is a mechanism of regulation of the proteome via enabling the production of multiple mRNAs from a single gene. To date, the dynamics of AS and its effects on the protein sequences of individuals in a large and genetically ...

Diversification of importin-α isoforms in cellular trafficking and disease states. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The human genome encodes seven isoforms of importin α which are grouped into three subfamilies known as α1, α2 and α3. All isoforms share a fundamentally conserved architecture that consists of an N-terminal, autoinhibitory, importin-β-binding (IBB ...
