Evidence for a second receptor binding site on human prolactin.
The existence of a second receptor binding site on human prolactin (hPRL) was investigated by site-directed mutagenesis. First, 12 residues of helices 1 and 3 were mutated to alanine. Since none of the resulting mutants exhibit reduced bioactivity in the Nb2 cell proliferation bioassay, the mutated residues do not appear to be functionally necessary. Next, small residues surrounding the helix 1...
متن کاملGamma reactivation using the spongy effect of KLF1-binding site sequence: an approach in gene therapy for beta-thalassemia
Objective(s): β-thalassemia is one of the most common genetic disorders in the world. As one of the promising treatment strategies, fetal hemoglobin (Hb F) can be induced. The present study was an attempt to reactivate the γ-globin gene by introducing a gene construct containing KLF1 binding sites to the K562 cell line. Materials and Methods: A plasmid containing a 192 bp sequence with two repe...
متن کاملIn silico Study of Toll-Like Receptor 4 Binding Site of FimH from Uropathogenic Escherichia coli
Introduction : The innate immune system as the first line of defense against the pathogens recognizes pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by Toll-Like Receptors (TLRs). Interaction of bacterial PAMPs by TLRs results in activation of innate and acquired immunity. FimH adhesin, a minor component of type 1 fimbriae encoded by Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is a PAMP of TLR4 tha...
متن کاملImplications of the binding of tamoxifen to the coactivator 1 recognition site of the estrogen receptor 2 3 4
21 A number of studies have reported on the unusual pharmacological behavior of type I antiestrogens, such 22 as tamoxifen. These agents display mixed agonist/antagonist activity in a dose-, cell-, and tissue-specific 23 manner. Consequently, many efforts have been made to develop so-called ‘pure’ antiestrogens that lack 24 mixed agonist/antagonist activity. The recent report of the structure o...
متن کاملAntimutagenic, antitumor and estrogen receptor binding activity of the rare plant Shortia galacifolia: An ethnobotanical and chemosystematic approach
Objective: Shortia and other members of the Diapensiaceae family have ethnomedicinal history in both Eastern and Western hemispheres. Based on ethnopharmacological and chemosystematic evidence, pharmacological and toxicological bioassays were conducted on the rare plant Oconee Bell, Shortia galacifolia. Materials and Methods: Extracts were examined in assays for antimutagenicity, antitumor and ...
