RNA-binding proteins as targets for pain therapeutics

Neurobiology of Pain, 2018
RNA-protein interactions permeate biology. Transcription, translation, processing, and mRNA decay all hinge on widespread use of regulatory information decoded by RNA-binding proteins.

Relationship between the loss of neutralizing antibody binding and fusion activity of the F protein of human respiratory syncytial virus

Virology Journal, 2007
To elucidate the relationship between resistance to HRSV neutralizing antibodies directed against the F protein and the fusion activity of the F protein, a recombinant approach was used to generate a panel of mutations in the major antigenic sites of the

Post-translational processing events in the secretion pathway of human protein C, a complex vitamin K-dependent antithrombotic factor.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1992
Human protein C (HPC) undergoes several post-translational modifications, including gamma-carboxylation, N-linked glycosylation, and internal proteolytic processing. We have utilized a recombinant human kidney cell line (293) secreting correctly modified HPC (rHPC) to study the processing reactions for the modification of this complex protein.

Expression of MHC II genes

, 2005
Innate and adaptive immunity are connected via antigen processing and presentation (APP), which results in the presentation of antigenic peptides to T cells in the complex with the major histocompatibility (MHC) determinants.

Expression of a human cartilage procollagen gene (COL2A1) in mouse 3T3 cells. [PDF]

, 1991
Expression in a recombinant system has been difficult to obtain for any of the major fibrillar collagens that require processing by eight or more post-translational enzymes.

Micro-RNA mediated regulation of a cytokine factor: TNF-alpha: an exploration of gene expression control in proliferating and quiescent cells [PDF]

, 2016
Two types mechanisms that control gene expression involve cis-regulatory factors and trans-regulatory factors. Cis-acting regulatory RNAs include targeted messenger RNA (mRNA) specificity and AU-rich elements (AREs).

A large scale prediction of bacteriocin gene blocks suggests a wide functional spectrum for bacteriocins

, 2015
Bacteriocins are peptide-derived molecules produced by bacteria, whose recently-discovered functions include virulence factors and signalling molecules as well as their better known roles as antibiotics.

Acetylation of the yeast Hsp40 chaperone protein Ydj1 fine-tunes proteostasis and translational fidelity.

PLoS Genetics
Proteostasis, the maintenance of cellular protein balance, is essential for cell viability and is highly conserved across all organisms. Newly synthesized proteins, or "clients," undergo sequential processing by Hsp40, Hsp70, and Hsp90 chaperones to ...

Mitochondrial genetics of alloplasmic male-sterile Brassica napus lines [PDF]

, 2005
Reliable and economical production of hybrid (F1) varieties requires efficient means to control pollination. The predominant system for pollination control of most field crops today is cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS).

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.
