The effects of calcium and magnesium ions on the adenosine triphosphatase and inosine triphosphatase activities of myosin A [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1969 1. The effects of Ca2+ and Mg2+ on the enzymic activity of myosin were studied with myosin preparations treated by the ion-exchange resin Chelex-100. A reaction mixture containing 0·05m-potassium chloride was chosen in which the effects of univalent ions such as K+, Na+ and Cl− do not change significantly with small variations in their concentrations ...

Type I Collagen Receptor (α2β1) Signaling Promotes Prostate Cancer Invasion through RhoC GTPase
Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2008 The most frequent site of metastasis in human prostate cancer (PCa) is the bone. Preferential adhesion of PCa cells to bone-specific factors may facilitate the selective metastasis of the skeleton.

Endogenous Mammalian Cardiotonic Steroids—A New Cardiovascular Risk Factor?—A Mini-Review
Life, 2021 The role of endogenous mammalian cardiotonic steroids (CTS) in the physiology and pathophysiology of the cardiovascular system and the kidneys has interested researchers for more than 20 years. Cardiotonic steroids extracted from toads or plants, such as

Late-onset thymidine kinase 2 deficiency: a review of 18 cases [PDF]
, 2019 BACKGROUND: TK2 gene encodes for mitochondrial thymidine kinase, which phosphorylates the pyrimidine nucleosides thymidine and deoxycytidine. Recessive mutations in the TK2 gene are responsible for the 'myopathic form' of the mitochondrial depletion ...

High inorganic triphosphatase activities in bacteria and mammalian cells: identification of the enzymes involved. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: We recently characterized a specific inorganic triphosphatase (PPPase) from Nitrosomonas europaea. This enzyme belongs to the CYTH superfamily of proteins.

MgATP-induced inhibition of the adenosine triphosphatase activity of the chloroform-released mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1981 1. Preincubation of the ox heart chloroform-released mitochondrial ATPase with MgATP results in a time-dependent inhibition of ATPase activity. No re-activation occurs when MgATP remains in the preincubation medium. The enzyme activity returns when all the MgATP in the preincubation system has been hydrolysed. 2.

RNA 5′-Triphosphatase, Nucleoside Triphosphatase, and Guanylyltransferase Activities of Baculovirus LEF-4 Protein [PDF]
Journal of Virology, 1998 ABSTRACT Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus late and very late mRNAs are transcribed by an RNA polymerase consisting of four virus-encoded polypeptides: LEF-8, LEF-9, LEF-4, and p47. The 464-amino-acid LEF-4 subunit contains the signature motifs of GTP:RNA guanylyltransferases (capping enzymes).
