Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is an incretin hormone secreted by endocrine K-cells in response to nutrient absorption. This study has utilised numerous well-characterised dipeptidyl peptidase IV-resistant GIP analogues ...
Evaluation of the 'side door' in carboxylesterase-mediated catalysis and inhibition [0.03%]
评估羧酸酯酶介导催化和抑制作用中的“侧门”效应
Timothy M Streit,Abdolsamad Borazjani,Shellaine E Lentz et al.
Timothy M Streit et al.
Abstract Structures of mammalian carboxylesterases (CEs) reveal the presence of a 'side door' that is proposed to act as an alternative pore for the trafficking of substrates and products. p-Nitrobenzyl esterase (pnb CE) from Bacillus subti...
Secondary structures and functional requirements for thiM riboswitches from Desulfovibrio vulgaris, Erwinia carotovora and Rhodobacter spheroides [0.03%]
脱硫弧菌、欧文氏胡萝卜亚种和红螺菌的thiM核糖调节元件的二级结构及功能要求
Andrea Rentmeister,Günter Mayer,Nicole Kuhn et al.
Andrea Rentmeister et al.
Abstract Bacterial thiM riboswitches contain aptamer domains that bind the metabolite thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP). Binding of TPP to the aptamer domain induces structural rearrangements that are relayed to the expression domain, thereby in...
Development of a human adipocyte model derived from human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) as a tool for toxicological studies on the action of TCDD [0.03%]
开发源自人类间充质干细胞(hMSC)的人类脂肪细胞模型作为TCDD作用毒理学研究的工具
Wen Li,Christoph F A Vogel,Phillip Fujiyoshi et al.
Wen Li et al.
Abstract Efforts were made to develop a human adipocyte model that is useful for toxicological studies in vitro. For this purpose, a stem cell line derived from human bone marrow cells, originally from an adult, was induced to differentiate...
Cloning, expression and characterization of insulin-degrading enzyme from tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) [0.03%]
番茄胰岛素降解酶的克隆、表达及特性分析

A cDNA encoding insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) was cloned from tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and expressed in Escherichia coli in N-terminal fusion with glutathione S-transferase. GST-SlIDE was characterized as a neutral thiol-dependent met...
Inhibition of human mu-calpain by conformationally constrained calpastatin peptides [0.03%]
构象约束型钙蛋白酶素肽对人μ-钙蛋白酶的抑制作用

José Pfizer et al.
The 27-mer peptide CP1B-[1-27] derived from exon 1B of calpastatin stands out among the known inhibitors for mu- and m-calpain due to its high potency and selectivity. By systematical truncation, a 20-mer peptide, CP1B-[4-23], was identifie...
Heparinase selectively sheds heparan sulphate from the endothelial glycocalyx [0.03%]
肝素酶选择性地从内皮糖蛋白层脱落硫酸乙酰肝素
