The innate immune system pattern recognition receptors (PRR) are the first line of host defenses recognizing the various pathogen- or danger-associated molecular patterns and eliciting defenses by regulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines ...

The organization of the microtubule cytoskeleton and its role on nuclear dynamics in the multinucleate hyphae of "Ashbya gossypii" revealed by live cell imaging and electron microscopy [PDF]
Nuclear migration is important for normal growth and development of all eukaryotes including filamentous fungi. Among those, Ashbya gossypii, which is evolutionarily related to the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is a particularly attractive ...

Steroid receptors are found as a hetero-oligomeric complex in cell extracts. Due to the dynamic interaction between receptor-associated proteins and receptors, it is difficult to study the oligomeric complex in living cells.

Expression of Tas1 taste receptors in mammalian spermatozoa [PDF]
Background: During their transit through the female genital tract, sperm have to recognize and discriminate numerous chemical compounds. However, our current knowledge of the molecular identity of appropriate chemosensory receptor proteins in sperm is ...

Cytoplasmic TRAIL-R1 is a positive prognostic marker in PDAC
Background The death receptors TRAIL-R1 and TRAIL-R2 are frequently overexpressed in cancer and there is an emerging evidence for their important role in malignant progression, also in the case of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

NDP52 activates nuclear myosin VI to enhance RNA polymerase II transcription
Myosin VI (MVI) is known to interact with RNA Polymerase II and to play non-cytoplasmic roles in cells. Here, the authors provide evidence that the transcription co-activator NDP52 regulates MVI binding to DNA and that MVI interacts with nuclear ...

NTF2 is a cytosolic protein responsible for nuclear import of Ran, a small Ras-like GTPase involved in a number of critical cellular processes, including cell cycle regulation, chromatin organization during mitosis, reformation of the nuclear envelope following mitosis, and controlling the directionality of nucleocytoplasmic transport.

The constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) is a ligand/activator-dependent transactivation factor that resides in the cytoplasm and forms part of an as yet unidentified protein complex. Upon stimulation, CAR translocates into the nucleus where it modulates the transactivation of target genes.
