A search for POU domain sequences expressed in the human retina has led to identification of three closely related genes: Brn-3a, Brn-3b, and Brn-3c. The structure expression pattern Brn-3b was reported earlier (Xiang et al., 1993); we report here structures patterns Brn-3a Antibodies specific each Brn-3 protein were generated shown label only ganglion cells a variety vertebrate retinas. complex strongly weakly immunolabeled observed mouse, cat, monkey retinae. In mouse cat retinae, proteins...

Obesity presents a significant global health challenge, increasing the susceptibility to chronic conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension. Within context of obesity, lipid metabolism, adipose tissue formation, inflammation are intricately linked endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS). ERS modulates insulin signaling, inflammation, well cell proliferation death through unfolded protein response (UPR) pathway. Serving crucial nexus, bridges functionality inflammatory...

Abstract Cellular senescence and the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) are implicated in aging age-related disease, SASP-related inflammation is thought to contribute tissue dysfunction diseased animals. However, whether how SASP factors influence regenerative capacity of tissues remains unclear. Here, using intestinal organoids as a model regeneration, we show that released by senescent fibroblasts deregulate stem cell activity differentiation ultimately impair crypt...

Rice (Oryza sativa) leaf angle is determined by lamina joint and an important agricultural trait determining erectness and, hence, the photosynthesis efficiency grain yield. Genetic studies reveal a complex regulatory network of development; however, morphological changes, cytological transitions, underlying transcriptional programming remain to be elucidated. A systemic study reveals dynamic developmental process suggests common but distinct regulation joint. Successive sequential cell...

Abscisic acid (ABA), the most important stress-induced phytohormone, regulates seed dormancy, germination, plant senescence, and abiotic stress response. ABA signaling is repressed by group A type 2C protein phosphatases (PP2Cs), then binds to its receptor of ACTIN RESISTANCE1 (PYR1), PYR1-LIKE (PYL), REGULATORY COMPONENTS OF RECEPTORS (RCAR) family, which, in turn, inhibits PP2Cs activates downstream signaling. The agonist/antagonist receptors have potential reveal machinery become lead...

In eukaryotic organisms, protein kinases regulate diverse activities and signaling pathways through phosphorylation of specific substrates. Isolating characterizing kinase substrates is vital for defining downstream pathways. The Kinase Client (KiC) assay an in vitro synthetic peptide LC-MS/MS that has enabled identification (i.e., clients) various kinases. For example, previous use a 2,100-member (2k) library identified the extracellular ATP receptor-like kinase, P2K1. Many P2K1 clients...

Developing peptide-based tools to fine-tune growth signaling pathways, in particular molecules with exquisite selectivity and high affinities, opens up opportunities for cellular reprogramming tissue regeneration. Here, we present a library based on cystine-knot peptides (CKPs) that incorporate multiple loops randomization selection via directed evolution. Resulting binders could be assembled into multimeric structures signaling. An example is presented the Wnt pathway, which plays key role...

Toxoplasma gondii rhoptry protein ROP18 (TgROP18) is a key virulence factor secreted into the host cell during invasion, where it modulates response by interacting with its targets. However, only few TgROP18 targets have been identified. In this study, we applied high-throughput protein-protein interaction (PPI) screening in human cells using bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) to identify of Type I strain (ROP18I) and II (ROP18II).
