Inhibition of sequestration of human B-2 bradykinin receptor by phenylarsine oxide or sucrose allows determination of a receptor affinity shift and ligand dissociation in intact cells [PDF]
, 2004 Depending on their interaction with intracellular proteins, G proteincoupled receptors (GPCR) often display different affinities for agonists at 37degreesC. Determining the affinity at that temperature is often difficult in intact cells as most GPCRs are

Influenza B Virus Receptor Specificity: Closing the Gap between Binding and Tropism
VirusesInfluenza A and influenza B viruses (FLUAV and FLUBV, respectively) cause significant respiratory disease, hospitalization, and mortality each year. Despite causing at least 25% of the annual disease burden, FLUBV is historically understudied.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Decavanadate displaces inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) from its receptor and inhibits IP3 induced Ca2+ release in permeabilized pancreatic acinar cells [PDF]
, 1991 Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) induced Ca2+ release in digitonin permeabilized rat pancreatic acinar cells is specifically inhibited by decavanadate.

Cell binding, uptake, and infection of influenza A virus using recombinant antibody-based receptors
Journal of VirologyHuman and avian influenza A viruses bind to sialic acid (Sia) receptors on cells as their primary receptors, and this results in endocytic uptake of the virus.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.

Expression of the insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate receptor in multiple human tissues during fetal life and early infancy [PDF]
, 1992 The insulin like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate (IGF-II/M6P) receptor has been detected in many cells and tissues. In the rat, there is a dramatic developmental regulation of IGF-II/M6P receptor expression, the receptor being high in fetal and ...

The binding and activation of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor by exendin-4 [PDF]
, 2010 Background and purpose Exendin-4 (EX4) has the same physiological properties as glucagon-like peptide-1 (7-36)amide (GLP-1). EX4 has 50% identity with GLP-1, with an extra nine amino acids at its C-terminus.
