The Characteristics of Intrinsic Fluorescence of Type I Collagen Influenced by Collagenase I
Applied Sciences, 2018 The triple helix structure of collagen can be degraded by collagenase. In this study, we explored how the intrinsic fluorescence of type I collagen was influenced by collagenase I. We found that tyrosine was the main factor that could successfully excite

Tyrosine phosphorylation controls brassinosteroid receptor activation by triggering membrane release of its kinase inhibitor [PDF]
, 2011 Receptor tyrosine kinases control many critical processes in metazoans, but these enzymes appear to be absent in plants. Recently, two Arabidopsis receptor kinases-BRASSINOSTEROID INSENSITIVE 1 (BRI1) and BRI1-ASSOCIATED KINASE1 (BAK1), the ...

Purcell radiative rate enhancement of label-free proteins with ultraviolet aluminum plasmonics [PDF]
, 2021 The vast majority of proteins are intrinsically fluorescent in the ultraviolet, thanks to the emission from their tryptophan and tyrosine amino-acid constituents. However, the protein autofluorescence quantum yields are generally very low due to the prevailing quenching mechanisms by other amino acids inside the protein.

LED-based photo-CIDNP hyperpolarization enables 19F MR imaging and 19F NMR spectroscopy of 3-fluoro-DL-tyrosine at 0.6 T [PDF]
Appl Magn Reson (2022), 2022 Although 19F has high potential to serve as a background-free molecular marker in bioimaging, the molar amount of marker substance is often too small to enable 19F MR imaging or 19F NMR spectroscopy with a sufficiently high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

EGF regulates tyrosine phosphorylation and membrane-translocation of the scaffold protein Tks5 [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Tks5/FISH is a scaffold protein comprising of five SH3 domains and one PX domain. Tks5 is a substrate of the tyrosine kinase Src and is required for the organization of podosomes/invadopodia implicated in invasion of tumor cells.

Role of cytosolic, tyrosine‐insensitive prephenate dehydrogenase in Medicago truncatula
Plant Direct, 2020 l‐Tyrosine (Tyr) is an aromatic amino acid synthesized de novo in plants and microbes downstream of the shikimate pathway. In plants, Tyr and a Tyr pathway intermediate, 4‐hydroxyphenylpyruvate (HPP), are precursors to numerous specialized metabolites ...

G6b-B Inhibits Constitutive and Agonist-induced Signaling by Glycoprotein VI and CLEC-2 [PDF]
, 2008 Platelets play an essential role in wound healing by forming thrombi that plug holes in the walls of damaged blood vessels. To achieve this, platelets express a diverse array of cell surface receptors and signaling proteins that induce rapid platelet ...

Structural basis of tubulin tyrosination by tubulin tyrosine ligase [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2013 Tubulin tyrosine ligase (TTL) catalyzes the post-translational retyrosination of detyrosinated α-tubulin. Despite the indispensable role of TTL in cell and organism development, its molecular mechanism of action is poorly understood. By solving crystal structures of TTL in complex with tubulin, we here demonstrate that TTL binds to the α and β subunits
