A blue-light-activated GTP-binding protein in the plasma membranes of etiolated peas.
Heterotrimeric GTP-binding regulatory proteins (G proteins) have been identified as part of signal transduction systems in a wide variety of organisms. In this paper, we establish the presence of a G protein associated with the plasma membranes of the apical bud of etiolated peas. The GTPase activity is induced by low fluences of blue light administered to plasma membrane-enriched fractions. Th...
متن کاملCellular disposition of transported polyamines in hypoxic rat lung and pulmonary arteries.
The polyamines putrescine, spermidine (SPD), and spermine are a family of low-molecular-weight organic cations essential for cell growth and differentiation and other aspects of signal transduction. Hypoxic pulmonary vascular remodeling is accompanied by depressed lung polyamine synthesis and markedly augmented polyamine uptake. Cell types in which hypoxia induces polyamine transport in intact ...
متن کاملApical membrane proteins are transported in distinct vesicular carriers
The function of polarized epithelial cells and neurons is achieved through intracellular sorting mechanisms that recognize classes of proteins in the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and deliver them into separate vesicles for transport to the correct surface domain. Some proteins are delivered to the apical membrane after their association with membrane detergent-insoluble glycophosphatidylinositol/c...
متن کاملPolyamines Are Required for Virulence in Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium
Sensing and responding to environmental cues is a fundamental characteristic of bacterial physiology and virulence. Here we identify polyamines as novel environmental signals essential for virulence of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, a major intracellular pathogen and a model organism for studying typhoid fever. Central to its virulence are two major virulence loci Salmonella Pathogeni...
متن کاملLike peas in a pod
In January, Harold Varmus will begin the next stage in an unusual career. He’s gone from English literature to medicine to bench science to Washington science bureaucrat, and now he becomes the well-paid (some would say extremely well-paid) president of a private, not-for-profit treatment and research facility, the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York. He’s succeeded in everything...
