The elusive function of metallothioneins.
Biochemistry and genetics are both required to elucidate the function of macromolecules. There is no question that metallothioneins (MTs) have unique biochemical properties, but genetic experiments have not substantiated the importance of MTs under physiological conditions. Even after thousands of studies describing the structure, biochemical characteristics, tissue distribution, induction, and...
متن کاملBrefeldin A: deciphering an enigmatic inhibitor of secretion.
The fungal macrocyclic lactone brefeldin A (BFA) has proved to be of great value as an inhibitor of protein trafficking in the endomembrane system of mammalian cells (Sciaky et al., 1997). BFA has also often been used as an inhibitor of secretion and vacuolar protein transport in plant cells, but just exactly how BFA achieves these effects has been a matter of debate for some time (e.g. Satiat-...
متن کاملThe Enigmatic Function of Chandelier Cells
Chandelier (or axo-axonic) cells are one of the most distinctive GABAergic interneurons in the brain. Their exquisite target specificity for the axon initial segment of pyramidal neurons, together with their GABAergic nature, long suggested the possibility that they provide the ultimate inhibitory control of pyramidal neuron output. Recent findings indicate that their function may be more compl...
متن کاملDeciphering the enigmatic face: the importance of facial dynamics in interpreting subtle facial expressions.
Most studies investigating the recognition of facial expressions have focused on static displays of intense expressions. Consequently, researchers may have underestimated the importance of motion in deciphering the subtle expressions that permeate real-life situations. In two experiments, we examined the effect of motion on perception of subtle facial expressions and tested the hypotheses that ...
