aIIbb3, a member of the integrin family of adhesive protein receptors, is the most abundant glycoprotein on platelet plasma-membranes and binds to adhesive proteins via the recognition of short amino acid sequences, for example the ubiquitous RGD motif.However, elucidation of the ligand-binding domains of the receptor remains controversial, mainly owing to the fact that integrins are conformationally labile during purification and storage.

The intracellular role of placental protein 17b (PP17b)/ TIP47has been controversial, because it is considered tobe a protein required for mannose 6-phosphate receptor trans-port from endosome totrans-Golgi as well as a neutral lipid droplet-associatedprotein.The similaritybetween theamino acid sequences of PP17 variants, adipophilin and perilipins, andbetween their gene structures indicate that PP17baswell as other alternatively spliced PP17 variants belong to the lipid storage droplet protein family, containing also some differentiation factors....

White and brown adipocytes are usually located in distinct depots; however, in response to cold, brown adipocytes appear in white fat. This response is mediated by b-adrenoceptors but there is a controversy about the sub-type(s) involved. In the present study, we exposed to cold b3 -adrenoceptor knockout mice (b3KO) on a C57BL/6J geneticbackgroundandmeasured inwhiteadipose tissue the density of multilocular cells and the expression of the brown adipocyte marker uncoupling protein-1 (UCP1).

Although belonging to the widely investigated peroxidase superfamily, lactoperoxidase (LPO) and myeloperoxidase (MPO) share structural and functional features that make them peculiar with respect to other enzymes of the same group. A survey of the available literature on their catalytic intermediates enabled us to ask some questions that remained unanswered. These questions concern controver-sial features of theLPOandMPOcatalytic cycle, suchas the existence of Compound I and Compound II isomers and the identification of their spectroscopic properties....

Although highly controversial just a few years ago, the idea that G-pro-tein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) may undergo homo-oligomerization or hetero-oligomerization has recently gained considerable attention. The recognition that GPCRs may exhibit either dimeric or oligomeric structures is based on a number of different biochemical and biophysical approaches.

There is still a controversy over the mechanism of promoter DNA strand separation upon open transcription complex (RPo) formation by Escheri-chia coli RNA polymerase: is it a single or a stepwise process controlled by Mg 2+ ions and temperature? To resolve this question, the kinetics of pseudo-first-order oxidation of thymine residues by KMnO4 in the )11…+2 DNA region of RPo at thekPRpromoter was examined under single-hit conditions as a function of temperature (13–37C) in the absence or presence of 10 mmMgCl2....

Malonyl-CoA, a potent inhibitor of carnitine pamitoyl transferase-I (CPT-I), plays a pivotal role in fuel selection in cardiac muscle. Malonyl-CoA decarboxylase (MCD) cata-lyzes the degradation of malonyl-CoA, removes a potent allosteric inhibition on CPT-I and thereby increases fatty acid oxidation in the heart. Although MCDhas several Ser/ Thr phosphorylation sites, whether it is regulated by AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) has been controversial. We therefore overexpressed MCD(Ad.MCD) and consti-tutively active AMPK (Ad.

The molecular chaperone Grp94 (gp96) of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen plays an essential role in the structural maturation and⁄or secretion of proteins destined for transport to the cell surface. Its proposed role in binding and transferring peptides for immune recognition is, however, controversial.

The biochemical nature and the replication of infectious prions have been intensively studied in recent years. Much less is known about the cellular events underlying neuronal dysfunction and cell death. As the cellular func-tion of the normal cellular isoform of prion protein is not exactly known, the impact of gain of toxic function or loss of function, or a combination of both, in prion pathology is still controversial.

The structure of human telomeric DNA is controversial; it depends upon the sequence contexts and the methodologies used to determine it. The solution structure in the presence of K + is particularly interesting, but the structure is yet to be elucidated, due to possible conformational heterogen-eity.

We investigated the soluble forms of the earliest activation antigen of human leukocyte CD69. This receptor is expressed at the cell surface as a type II homodimeric membrane protein. However, the elements necessary to prepare the soluble recombinant CD69 suitable for structural studies are a matter of controversy.

Tumour necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) induces apoptosis in a variety of tumour cells, but not in most normal cells, and has attracted considerable attention for its potential use in cancer therapy. Recently, increasing evidence has shown that TRAIL is involved in inflam-mation, although much of this evidence is controversial.

In many laboratories, the requirement of microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) and the stabilization of microtubules for the elongation of neurites has been intensively investigated, with controversial results being obtained. We have observed that the neurite microtubules of Cath.a-differentiated (CAD) cells, a mouse brain derived cell, are highly dynamic structures, and so we analyzed several aspects of the cytoskeleton to investigate the molecu-lar causes of this phenomenon.

Many drugs have unknown, controversial or multiple mechanisms of action. Four recent ‘chemical genomic’ studies, using genome-scale collections of yeast gene deletions that were either arrayed or barcoded, have presented complementary approaches to identifying gene-drug and pathwaydrug interactions. deposited research The fact that much of modern drug research is target-oriented obscures the long history during which the effects of drugs were discovered prior to identification of their targets. There remain many...
