Alterations of the mitochondrial proteome caused by the absence of mitochondrial DNA: A proteomic view [PDF]
The proper functioning of mitochondria requires that both the mitochondrial and the nuclear genome are functional. To investigate the importance of the mitochondrial genome, which encodes only 13 subunits of the respiratory complexes, the mitochondrial ...

Accessory proteins for heterotrimeric G-proteins in the kidney
Heterotrimeric G-proteins play a fundamentally important role in regulating signal transduction pathways in the kidney. Accessory proteins are being identified as direct binding partners for heterotrimeric G-protein α or βγ subunits to promote more ...

Research progress of the Elongator complex in plant
The Elongator complex consists of six subunits (ELP1-ELP6), where ELP1-ELP3 forms the core subcomplex and ELP4-ELP6 forms the auxiliary subcomplex. Deletion of any of the six subunits results in an almost identical phenotype, suggesting that all six ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Purification and characterization of a calmodulin-dependent protein kinase that is highly concentrated in brain [PDF]
A calcium and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase has been purified from rat brain. It was monitored during the purification by its ability to phosphorylate the synaptic vesicle-associated protein, synapsin I.

Structures and proton-pumping strategies of mitochondrial respiratory enzymes [PDF]
Enzymes of the mitochondrial respiratory chain serve as proton pumps, using the energy made available from electron transfer reactions to transport protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane and create an electrochemical gradient used for the ...
