β-endorphin neuron transplantation
We summarize here our new discovery that the endogenous opioid peptide β-endorphin (BEP), by virtue of reducing body stress and maintaining active immune system, as well as, balancing the levels of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines, destroys tumor cells and stops them from being transformed into metastatic cancer cells.
متن کاملA Ca2+-dependent bacterial antifreeze protein domain has a novel β-helical ice-binding fold
AFPs (antifreeze proteins) are produced by many organisms that inhabit ice-laden environments. They facilitate survival at sub-zero temperatures by binding to, and inhibiting, the growth of ice crystals in solution. The Antarctic bacterium Marinomonas primoryensis produces an exceptionally large (>1 MDa) hyperactive Ca2+-dependent AFP. We have cloned, expressed and characterized a 322-amino-aci...
متن کاملPrediction of Protein–Protein Interfaces on G-Protein β Subunits Reveals a Novel Phospholipase C β2 Binding Domain
0022-2836/$ see front matter © 2009 E Gβ subunits from heterotrimeric G-proteins (guanine nucleotide-binding proteins) directly bind diverse proteins, including effectors and regulators, to modulate a wide array of signaling cascades. These numerous interactions constrained the evolution of the molecular surface of Gβ. Althoughmammals contain five Gβ genes comprising two classes (Gβ1-like and G...
متن کاملSilver Resistance In Acinetobacter baumannii BL54 Occurs Through Binding to a Ag-Binding Protein
The mechanism of plasmid mediated silver (Ag) resistance was investigated in Acinetobacter baumanniiBL54. The intracellular accumulation of Ag in both original strain BL54 and Escherichia coli K12transconjugant containing plasmid pUPI276 began immediately and reached a maximum within 60 minutes.This initial accumulation was followed by net loss of Ag which reached a maximum wi...
متن کاملCC1, a novel crenarchaeal DNA binding protein.
The genomes of the related crenarchaea Pyrobaculum aerophilum and Thermoproteus tenax lack any obvious gene encoding a single-stranded DNA binding protein (SSB). SSBs are essential for DNA replication, recombination, and repair and are found in all other genomes across the three domains of life. These two archaeal genomes also have only one identifiable gene encoding a chromatin protein (the Al...
