Background Pyridoxal-5′-phosphate phosphatase/chronophin (PLPP/CIN) selectively dephosphorylates serine (S) 10 site on neurofibromin 2 (NF2, also known as merlin (moesin-ezrin-radixin-like protein) or schwannomin).

Metabolic modeling predicts unique drug targets in Borrelia burgdorferi
The Lyme disease bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi is extremely host dependent, with a small genome and correspondingly limited metabolism. As such, it is an excellent candidate for the development of targeted, narrow-spectrum antimicrobials.

Effect of cyclosporine on hepatic cytosolic estrogen and androgen receptor levels before and after partial hepatectomy [PDF]
Estrogen and androgen receptors within the liver have been reported to modulate the hepatic regenerative response to partial hepatectomy. Moreover, cyclosporine has several untoward effects that might occur as a consequence of alterations in sex hormone ...

Reversible unfolding of pyridoxal kinase.
The unfolding of brain pyridoxal kinase by guanidinium HCl has been investigated at equilibrium. The overall process was reversible as judged from the complete recovery of catalytic activity after removal of guanidinium HCl. Unfolding of pyridoxal kinase was monitored by circular dichroism and fluorescence spectroscopy.

Effects of the CDK-inhibitor CYC202 on p38 MAPK, ERK1/2 and c-Myc activities in papillomavirus type 16 E6- and E7-transformed human keratinocytes [PDF]
In the present study, we have investigated the effect of the chemical CDK-inhibitor CYC202 on E6 and E7-transformed keratinocytes, in which the function of the cellular cell cycle inhibitor p21Cip1 is abrogated by the viral genes.

Cyclosporine augments hepatic regenerative response in rats [PDF]
A number of mechanisms participate in the hepatic injury that occurs during and following liver transplantation. A normal allograft regenerative response is probably essential for a successful transplant outcome. In this study, the effect of cyclosporine,

Metabolic features of cancer cells impact immunosurveillance
Background Tumors rewire their metabolism to achieve robust anabolism and resistance against therapeutic interventions like cisplatin treatment. For example, a prolonged exposure to cisplatin causes downregulation of pyridoxal kinase (PDXK), the enzyme ...

Chronophin regulates active vitamin B6 levels and transcriptomic features of glioblastoma cell lines cultured under non-adherent, serum-free conditions [PDF]
Background: The phosphatase chronophin (CIN/PDXP) has been shown to be an important regulator of glioma cell migration and invasion. It has two known substrates: p-Ser3-cofilin, the phosphorylated form of the actin binding protein cofilin, and pyridoxal ...
