Background
SUPFAM database is a compilation of superfamily relationships between protein domain families of either known or unknown 3-D structure. In SUPFAM, sequence families from Pfam and structural families from SCOP are associated, using profile matching, to result in sequence superfamilies of known structure. Subsequently all-against-all family profile matches are made to deduce a list of new potential superfamilies of yet unknown structure. 相似文献52.

Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P(2)), a minor component of the plasma membrane, is important in signal transduction, exocytosis, and ion channel activation. Thus fluorescent probes suitable for monitoring the PI(4,5)P(2) distribution in living cells are valuable tools for cell biologists. We report here three experiments that show neomycin labeled with either fluorescein or coumarin can be used to detect PI(4,5)P(2) in model phospholipid membranes. First, addition of physiological concentrations of PI(4,5)P(2) (2%) to lipid vesicles formed from mixtures of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylserine (PS) enhances the binding of labeled neomycin significantly (40-fold for 5:1 PC/PS vesicles). Second, physiological concentrations of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (10 microM I(1,4,5)P(3)) cause little translocation of neomycin from PC/PS/PI(4,5)P(2) membranes to the aqueous phase, whereas the same concentrations of I(1,4,5)P(3) cause significant translocation of the green fluorescent protein/phospholipase C-delta pleckstrin homology (GFP-PH) constructs from membranes (Hirose et al., Science, 284 (1999) 1527). Third, fluorescence microscopy observations confirm that one can distinguish between PC/PS vesicles containing either 0 or 2% PI(4, 5)P(2) by exposing a mixture of the vesicles to labeled neomycin. Thus fluorescently labeled neomycin could complement GFP-PH constructs to investigate the location of PI(4,5)P(2) in cell membranes. 相似文献

Background
Engagement of the antigen receptor on immature B-lymphocytes leads to cell cycle arrest, and subsequent apoptosis. This is an essential process for eliminating self reactive B cells during its different stages of development. However, the mechanism by which it is achieved is not completely understood. 相似文献54.
Genetic analysis of anthocyanin of the anthers and culm pigmentation in common wheat 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Anthocyanin pigmentation of various organs develops during plant ontogeny in response to adverse and damaging abiotic and biotic stressors (environmental factors). Using the monosome method, the genes responsible for anther and culm anthocyanin pigmentation (Pan1 and Pc2, respectively) were localized to 7D chromosome in introgressive lines from crosses between common wheat Triticum aestivum L. and the species Triticum timopheevii Zhuk. Genetic analysis of ten common wheat genotypes using testers carrying genes Pan1, Pn1, and Pn2 showed that these genotypes contained Pan1 and Pn2 genes. Visual examination of plants from 70 and 76 varieties of respectively winter and spring common wheat revealed anthocyanin pigmentation of anthers and culms in 36 varieties. Pan1 and Pn2 genes were presumably introduced into common wheat from Aegilops tauschii (Fig.) Tzvel., a donor of the D genome. 相似文献

We used immunohistochemistry to quantify and compare the expression of Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and cluster of differentiation 14 (CD14) in gingival tissues of both healthy individuals and patients with chronic periodontitis. We also correlated the expression of TLR2 and CD14 with the histological grades of chronic periodontitis. We examined 30 gingival specimens from chronic periodontitis patients and 10 from healthy individuals. Tissues from both groups were immunostained with antibodies against TLR2 and CD14. TLR2 and CD14 were expressed by endothelial cells, fibroblasts, lymphocytes and plasma cells. The immunohistochemical expression of TLR2 and CD14 was significantly greater in inflammatory cells of the chronic periodontitis group than in healthy individuals. Expression of these molecules was greater in the inflammatory cells of connective tissue adjacent to pocket epithelium in both groups. The expression of TLR2 and CD14 was greatest in the periodontitis group that was classified as severe grade, followed by moderate and mild grades, which suggests a role of TLR2 and CD14 in the pathogenesis of chronic periodontitis. The positive correlation of TLR2 and CD14 expression levels with the severity grades of chronic periodontitis suggests that they are correlated also with disease severity; therefore, they may be useful for predicting disease progression. Our findings are consistent with the possibility that CD14 acts as a co-receptor for TLR2. 相似文献

The contribution of genetic factors to spontaneous level of the sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) has been determined on the basis of the twin method of study. A close relation is shown to exist between the SCE tests in the group of the monozygotic twins which is a result of the common genotype. The SCE test with late BUdR introduction is under rigid genetic control. 相似文献

Long-term treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors reduces post-infarction morbidity and mortality in patients
with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction or symptomatic heart failure. Until recently, the effect of such treatment
in patients with preserved LV function has not been known. The results from the Heart Outcome Prevention Evaluation trial
have indicated that long-term treatment with ramipril leads to a significant reduction in cardiovascular events in patients
with atherosclerotic disease, including those with prior myocardial infarction and preserved LV function. These results suggest
that long-term angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition should also be considered in post-infarction patients with normal
cardiac function. 相似文献
