Saccharomyces cerevisiaehas been used as a model system to characterize the effect of cytochromebmutations found in fungal and oomycete plant pathogens resistant to Qo inhibitors (QoIs), including the strobilurins, now widely employed in agriculture to control such diseases. Specific residues in the Qosite of yeast cytochromebwere modified to obtain four new forms mimicking the Qobinding site of Erysiphe graminis, Venturia inaequalis, Sphaerotheca fuligi-neaandPhytophthoramegasperma.

Intraluminall-phenylalanine (Phe) stimulates cholecystokinin (CCK) secre-tion in vivo andin vitro. However, the cellular mechanism by which CCK-producing enteroendocrine cells sense Phe is unknown. The calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) can sense amino acids, and is expressed in the gastrointesti-nal tract.

REVIEW ARTICLE Hanna Willander1,2, EriThe BRICHOS domain was initially defined from sequence alignments of the Bri protein associated with familial dementia, chondromodulin associ-ated with chondrosarcoma and surfactant protein C precursor (proSP-C) associated with respiratory distress syndrome and interstitial lung disease (ILD). Today BRICHOS has been found in 12 protein families.
