The various components

This thesis deals with the finite element simulation of spot welded joint in crash analysis. Spot welding is a very common joining process in the automotive industry. It is cost effective and it provides a very fast production rate of automotive body components. Despite this advantage, spot welds are very susceptible to various types of loading conditions. Therefore they are prone to failure, if not designed properly, during their service life time. Therefore it is very important to understand the behaviour of spot welds and their failure characteristics.

Stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK) signaling plays essential roles in eliciting adequate cellular responses to stresses and proinflammatory cytokines. SAPK pathways are composed of three successive protein kinase reactions. The phosphorylation of SAPK signaling components on Ser/Thr or Thr/Tyr residues suggests the involvement of various protein phosphatases in the negative regulation of these systems.

Pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK) is the primary regulator of flux through the mitochondrial pyruvate dehy-drogenase complex (PDC).Analysis of the primary amino-acid sequences of PDK from various sources reveals that these enzymes include the five domains characteristic of prokaryotic two-component His-kinases, despite the fact that PDKexclusivelyphosphorylates Ser residues in theE1a subunit of the PDC.This seeming contradiction might be resolved if the PDK-catalyzed reaction employed a phos-pho-His intermediate....

Hyaluronan-binding protein 1 (HABP1), a ubiquitous multifunctional protein, interacts with hyaluronan, globular head of complement component 1q (gC1q), and clustered mannose and has been shown to be involved in cell sig-nalling.In vitro, this recombinant protein isolated from human ®broblast exists in di€erent oligomeric forms, as is evident from the results of various independent techniques in near-physiological conditions.

It has been shown previously in various organisms that the peroxin PEX14 is a component of a docking complex at the peroxisomalmembrane,where it is involved in the import of matrix proteins into the organelle after their synthesis in the cytosol and recognition by a receptor. Here we present a characterization of theTrypanosoma bruceihomologue of PEX14. It is shown that the protein is associated with gly-cosomes,the peroxisome-like organelles of trypanosomatids in which most glycolytic enzymes are compartmentalized....

In the horseshoe crab, bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces exocyto-sis by granular hemocytes, resulting in the secretion of various defense molecules, such as lectins and antimicrobial peptides, via a G protein-mediating signaling pathway. This response is a key component of the horseshoe crab innate immune response against infectious microorganisms. Here, we report an endogenous amplification mechanism for LPS-induced hemocytes exocytosis.

Transport of presecretory proteins into the mammalian rough endoplasmic reticulum involves a protein translocase that comprises the integral membrane proteins Sec61ap, Sec61bp, and Sec61cp as core components. Electron microscopic analysis of protein translocase in rough micro-somal membranes suggested that between three and four heterotrimeric Sec61p complexes form the central unit of protein translocase.

Lamins are major structural components of the nuclear envelope in multi-cellular eukaryotes. Particularly A-type lamins are also located in the nucleoplasm, likely involving a specific binding partner, lamina-associated polypeptide 2a (LAP2a). LAP2a–lamins A⁄C complexes in the nucleo-plasm have been implicated in the regulation of gene expression by various means.

A survey of the expression of the transthyretin and thyroxine-binding glob-ulin genes in various species during development provides clues as to how the present thyroid hormone distribution network in extracellular compart-ments developed during vertebrate evolution. Albumin may be the ‘oldest’ component of the thyroid hormone distribution network as it is found in the plasma of all vertebrates investigated.

Food hypersensitivity refers to all types of overreactions that an organism can have against a food component. Food sensitivity includes food allergy and food intolerance. Food allergy is a specific form of food hypersensitivity that activates the immune system, leading to an exaggerated response. An immunological reaction is a reaction against foreign substances entering the body. An allergen (nearly always a protein in the offending food) sets off a chain of reactions in the immune system including the release of antibodies.
