Signaling pathways for transduction of the initial message of the glycocode into cellular responses [PDF]
The sugar units of glycan structures store information and establish an alphabet of life. The language of the oligosaccharide coding units is deciphered by receptors such as lectins and the decoded message can be transduced by multiple signaling pathways.

Regulation of NKG2D-Dependent NK Cell Functions: The Yin and the Yang of Receptor Endocytosis. [PDF]
Natural-killer receptor group 2, member D (NKG2D) is a well characterized natural killer (NK) cell activating receptor that recognizes several ligands poorly expressed on healthy cells but up-regulated upon stressing stimuli in the context of cancer or ...

As a ubiquitin sensor and a signal-transducing adaptor, p62 is crucial for NF-κB activation, which involves the ubiquitin machinery in diverse contexts. However, whether p62 is required for EBV LMP1 activation of NF-κB is an open question.

Investigation of the SH3BP2 Gene Mutation in Cherubism [PDF]
Cherubism is a rare developmental lesion of the jaw that is generally inherited as an autosomal dominant trait. Recent studies have revealed point mutations in the SH3BP2 gene in cherubism patients.

Structure and dynamics of the E. coli chemotaxis core signaling complex by cryo-electron tomography and molecular simulations [PDF]
To enable the processing of chemical gradients, chemotactic bacteria possess large arrays of transmembrane chemoreceptors, the histidine kinase CheA, and the adaptor protein CheW, organized as coupled core-signaling units (CSU). Despite decades of study,

Evaluation of the role of STAP1 in Familial Hypercholesterolemia [PDF]
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is characterised by elevated serum levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and a substantial risk for cardiovascular disease.

Proteins and mechanisms involved in endosomal sorting of the epidermal growth factor receptor [PDF]
Signaling from growth factor receptors is tightly regulated. Failure of this regulation can lead to overstimulation of growth, proliferation and differentiation, and is often observed in cancer. The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is desensitized

Ubiquitin-dependent endocytosis of NKG2D-DAP10 receptor complexes activates signaling and functions in human NK cells [PDF]
Cytotoxic lymphocytes share the presence of the activating receptor NK receptor group 2, member D (NKG2D) and the signaling-competent adaptor DNAX-activating protein 10 (DAP10), which together play an important role in antitumor immune surveillance ...

STAP-2 Adaptor Protein Regulates Multiple Steps of Immune and Inflammatory Responses.
Signal-transducing adaptor protein (STAP)-2 is an adaptor molecule involved in regulation of several intracellular signaling events in immune cells. STAP-2 contains a pleckstrin homology domain at the N-terminus, an src homology domain in the central ...
