大腸菌を用いたフォスファカン(コンドロイチン硫酸プロテオグリカン)の融合コア蛋白の発現条件の検討 [PDF]
Optimal conditions for expressing a specific region of core protein of phosphacan, a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan known as receptor type protein tyrosine phosphatase, as fusion protein with glutathione S-transferase (GST) in E.coli were examined. DNA

Undervalued ubiquitous proteins
The role of ubiquitous proteins (UPs) and their corresponding enzymes have been underestimated in carcinogenesis as the focus of much research revolved around measuring mutations and/or other genetic epiphenomena as surrogate markers of cancer and cancer

Monoclonal antibodies to rabbit corneal keratan sulfate proteoglycan [PDF]
Six mouse hybrid cell lines were isolated which secrete antibodies to rabbit corneal proteoglycan. All six antibodies interacted with the same fraction of the proteoglycan, precipitating approximately 50% of proteoglycan labelled in the protein moiety. A

An amino-terminal extension is required for the secretion of chick agrin and its binding to extracellular matrix. [PDF]
Agrin is an extracellular matrix (ECM) protein with a calculated relative molecular mass of more than 200 kD that induces the aggregation of acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) at the neuromuscular junction. This activity has been mapped to its COOH terminus.

Mutable Collagenous Tissue: A Concept Generator for Biomimetic Materials and Devices
Echinoderms (starfish, sea-urchins and their close relations) possess a unique type of collagenous tissue that is innervated by the motor nervous system and whose mechanical properties, such as tensile strength and elastic stiffness, can be altered in a ...

Endocan - a potential diagnostic marker for early onset sepsis in neonates
Introduction: Neonatal early onset sepsis assessment is based on the history of pregnancy and delivery and nonspecific clinical signs. None of the biomarkers currently in use for clinical practice has adequate prognostic value, so it is not possible to ...

Soluble proteoglycans and proteoglycan fragments as biomarkers of pathological extracellular matrix remodeling [PDF]
Proteoglycans and their proteolytic fragments diffuse into biological fluids such as plasma, serum, urine, or synovial fluid, where they can be detected by antibodies or mass-spectrometry.
