Type of family

This analysis discusses about the family-based alternative care in the community for Children in Especially Difficult Circumstances (“CEDC”). Family-based alternative care is a type of social welfare that brings the CEDC or those who are at risk of losing the care from their birth parents into a temporarily stable family while waiting for a permanently stable family which might be their birth family or an adoptive family. Familybased alternative care has many advantages in comparison with the method of entrusting children into social protection facilities.

Soybean is a paleopolyploid that has undergone two whole genome duplication events. Gene duplication is a type of genomic change that can lead to novel functions of pre-existing genes. Chalcone synthase (CHS) is the plantspecific type III polyketide synthase that catalyzes the first committed step in (iso)flavonoid biosynthesis in plants.

The regulator of ubiquitous kinase (Ruk) protein, also known as CIN85 or SETA, is an adaptor-type protein belonging to the CD2AP/CMS family. It was found in complexes with many signaling proteins, including phos1 phoinositol (PtdIns) 3-kinase (EC 2.7.1.137), Cbl, GRB2, p130Cas and Crk. Functional analysis of these interactions, implicated Ruk in the regulation of apoptosis, receptor endocytosis and cytoskeletal rearrangements.

Two genes (CM-AAT1 and CM-AAT2) with strong sequence homology (87% identity at the protein level) putatively involved in the formation of aroma volatile esters have been isolated from Charentais melon fruit. They belong to a large and highly divergent family of multifunctional plant acyl-transferases and show at most 21% identity to the only other fruit acyl-transferase characterized so far in strawberry. RT-PCR studies indicated that both genes were specifically expressed in fruit at increasing rates in the early and mid phases of ripening.

The CD53 antigen is a member of the tetraspanin membrane protein family that is expressed in the lymphoid-myeloid lineage. We have studied the implication of CD53 antigen in signal transduction by determining the effect of its ligation on the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in different cell types. Ligation of the rat or human CD53 antigen induces a threeto fourfold transient activation of JNK activity that peaks at 3–5 min. The effect was detected by assaying the endogenous or exogenous (transfected) JNK activity....

Double-stranded RNA-activated protein kinase (PKR), a serine/threonine kinase, is activated in virus-infected cells and acts as an antiviral machinery of type I interferons. PKR controls several stress response pathways induced by double-stranded RNA, tumor necrosis factor-aor lipo-polysaccharide, which result in the activation of stress-acti-vated protein kinase/c-Jun NH2 -terminal kinase and p38 of the mitogen-activated protein kinase family.

Monoclonal nonspecific suppressor factor (MNSF) is a cytokine with antigen nonspecific suppressive activity. MNSFb(a subunit of MNSF) is a 14.5kDa fusion protein consisting of a proteinwith 36%identitywith ubiquitin and ribosomal protein S30. The ubiquitin-like segment (Ubi-L) may be cleaved from MNSFbin the cytosol. Recently, we have observed that Ubi-L covalently binds to intracellular proteins in mitogen-activated murine T-helper type 2 clone, D.10 cells.

The a-amylase family (glycoside hydrolase family 13; GH 13) contains enzymes with approximately 30 specifi-cities. Six types of enzyme from the family can possess a C-terminal starch-binding domain (SBD): a-amylase, maltotetraohydrolase, maltopentaohydrolase, maltogenic a-amylase, acarviose transferase, and cyclodextrin glu-canotransferase (CGTase). Such enzymes are multidomain proteins and those that contain an SBD consist of four or five domains, the former enzymes being mainly hydrolases and the latter mainly transglycosidases. ...

Tumor necrosis factor-a converting enzyme (TACE or ADAM17) is a member of the ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase) family of type I membrane proteins and mediates the ectodomain shedding of various membrane-anchored signaling and adhesion proteins. TACE is syn-thesized as an inactive zymogen, which is subsequently proteolytically processed to the catalytically active form.We have identified the proprotein-convertases PC7 and furin to be involved in maturation of TACE.

Ferredoxin (flavodoxin)-NADP(H) reductases (FNR) are ubiquitous flavoenzymes that deliver NADPH or low potential one-electron donors (ferredoxin, flavodoxin) to redox-based metabolisms in plastids, mitochondria and bacteria. The plant-type reductase is also the basic prototype for one of the major families of flavin-containing electron transferases that display common functional and structural properties.

Type I antifreeze proteins (AFPs) are usually small, Ala-richa-helical poly-peptides found in right-eyed flounders and certain species of sculpin. These proteins are divided into two distinct subclasses, liver type and skin type, which are encoded by separate gene families. Blood plasma from Atlantic (Liparis atlanticus) and dusky (Liparis gibbus) snailfish contain type I AFPs that are significantly larger than all previously described type I AFPs.

Mucin type O-glycosylation is a widespread modification of eukaryotic pro-teins. The transfer of N-acetylgalactosamine to selected serine or threonine residues is catalyzed by a family of polypeptide N-acetylgalactosaminyl-transferases localized in the Golgi apparatus. The most abundant elonga-tion of O-glycans is the addition of a b1-3 linked galactose by the core-1 b1-3 galactosyltransferase (core-1b3GalT), thereby building the T-antigen or core-1 structure Gal(b1-3)GalNAc(a1-O).

Lectins belonging to the jacalin-related lectin family are distributed widely in the plant kingdom. Recently, two mannose-specific lectins having tan-dem repeat-type structures were discovered in Castanea crenata(angio-sperm) and Cycas revoluta(gymnosperm). The occurrence of such similar molecules in taxonomically less related plants suggests their importance in the plant body.

The xylanase inhibitor protein I (XIP-I), recently identified in wheat, inhib-its xylanases belonging to glycoside hydrolase families 10 (GH10) and 11 (GH11). Sequence and structural similarities indicate that XIP-I is related to chitinases of family GH18, despite its lack of enzymatic activity. Here we report the identification and biochemical characterization of a XIP-type inhibitor from rice.

Hu-K4 is a human protein homologous to the K4L protein of vaccinia virus. Due to the presence of two HKD motifs, Hu-K4 was assigned to the family of Phospholipase D proteins although so far no catalytic activity has been shown. The Hu-K4 mRNA is found in many human organs with highest expression levels in the central nervous system. We extended the ORF of Hu-K4 to the 5¢ direction. As a consequence the protein is 53 amino acids larger than originally predicted, now harbouring a putative transmembrane domain....
