Binding of ribosomal proteins to RNA covalently coupled to agarose.
An affinity chromatographic procedure, using ribosomal or tRNA covalently coupled to agarose through an adipic acid dihydrazide spacer, has been developed to isolate and identify the Escherichia coli ribosomal proteins which specifically bind to these RNA molecules. Transfer RNA, 5-S, 16-S and 23-S ribosomal RNA were readily immobilized on agarose-dihydrazide: the maximum amount coupled decreas...
متن کاملGlucan-immunostimulant, adjuvant, potential drug.
β-glucans belong to a group of biologically active natural compounds called biological response modifiers. These substances represent highly conserved structural components of cell walls in fungi, yeast, grain and seaweed. Despite almost 160 years of intensive research, the exact mechanisms of their action remain unsolved. The significant role of glucans in cancer treatment, infection immunity,...
متن کاملHeterodimers and receptor mosaics of different types of G-protein-coupled receptors.
Through an assembly of interacting GPCRs, heterodimers and high-order heteromers (termed receptor mosaics) are formed and lead to changes in the agonist recognition, signaling, and trafficking of participating receptors via allosteric mechanisms, sometimes involving the appearance of cooperativity. This field has now become a major research area, and this review deals with their physiology bein...
متن کاملDo orphan G-protein-coupled receptors have ligand-independent functions? New insights from receptor heterodimers.
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are important drug targets and are involved in virtually every biological process. However, there are still more than 140 orphan GPCRs, and deciphering their function remains a priority for fundamental and clinical research. Research on orphan GPCRs has concentrated mainly on the identification of their natural ligands, whereas recent data suggest additional ...
متن کاملSTAT heterodimers in immunity
Cytokine signals are essential for generating a robust and specialized immune response. These signals are typically transmitted via canonical STAT homodimers. However, the number of STAT molecules utilized by cytokine signaling cascades within immune cells are limited, and so the mechanism used to deliver complex signals remains elusive. Heterodimerization of STAT proteins is one potential mech...
