A novel circ_0099999/miR-330-5p/FSCN1 ceRNA crosstalk in pancreatic cancer
Background Pancreatic cancer is a lethal malignancy in both sexes throughout the world. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been implicated in the development of pancreatic cancer by operating as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs).

Specific Targeting of Recombinant Human Pancreatic Ribonuclease 1 using Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Targeting Peptide toward Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Receptor-Positive Cancer Cells [PDF]
Background: Targeted drug delivery is a novel method to specifically deliver anticancer therapeutics to tumor sites. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is a decapeptide, and its target binding property has attracted attention as a means of targeted ...

Ultra-high resolution X-ray structure of orthorhombic bovine pancreatic Ribonuclease A at 100K
The crystal structure of orthorhombic Bovine Pancreatic Ribonuclease A has been determined to 0.85 Å resolution using low temperature, 100 K, synchrotron X-ray data collected at 16000 keV (λ = 0.77 Å). This is the first ultra-high-resolution structure of

Histone deacetylase 2-mediated deacetylation of the Ribonuclease 1 promoter in inflamed human endothelial cells [PDF]
Endothelial cells (ECs) function as protective barrier to separate the blood from the surrounding tissue by conducting crucial roles in regulation and maintenance of vascular homeostasis, such as control of vessel permeability or coagulation.

Intramolecular interactions in pancreatic ribonucleases [PDF]
AbstractA detailed analysis of the composition and properties of hydrophobic nuclei and microclusters in pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNase A) has been carried out. Distance calculations for all noncovalently bonded atoms revealed that the average number of nonpolar contacts between a side chain of an amino acid and its neighbors is substantially larger ...

A novel ligand-receptor relationship between families of ribonucleases and receptor tyrosine kinases
Pancreatic ribonuclease is known to participate in host defense system against pathogens, such as parasites, bacteria, and virus, which results in innate immune response. Nevertheless, its potential impact to host cells remains unclear.

Protein disulfide-isomerase interacts with a substrate protein at all stages along its folding pathway [PDF]
In contrast to molecular chaperones that couple protein folding to ATP hydrolysis, protein disulfide-isomerase (PDI) catalyzes protein folding coupled to formation of disulfide bonds (oxidative folding).
