Sec1p directly stimulates SNARE-mediated membrane fusion in vitro
Sec1 proteins are critical players in membrane trafficking, yet their precise role remains unknown. We have examined the role of Sec1p in the regulation of post-Golgi secretion in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Indirect immunofluorescence shows that endogenous Sec1p is found primarily at the bud neck in newly budded cells and in patches broadly distributed within the plasma membrane in unbudded cell...
متن کاملDengue Virus Directly Stimulates Polyclonal B Cell Activation
Dengue infection is associated to vigorous inflammatory response, to a high frequency of activated B cells, and to increased levels of circulating cross-reactive antibodies. We investigated whether direct infection of B cells would promote activation by culturing primary human B lymphocytes from healthy donors with DENV in vitro. B cells were susceptible, but poorly permissive to infection. Eve...
متن کاملViroporin-mediated Membrane Permeabilization
Enterovirus nonstructural 2B protein is involved in cell membrane permeabilization during late viral infection. Here we analyze the pore forming activity of poliovirus 2B and several of its variants. Solubilization of 2B protein was achieved by generating a fusion protein comprised of poliovirus 2B attached to a maltose-binding protein (MBP) as an N-terminal solubilization partner. MBP-2B was a...
متن کاملHistone H4 Lys 20 monomethylation by histone methylase SET8 mediates Wnt target gene activation.
Histone methylation has an important role in transcriptional regulation. However, unlike H3K4 and H3K9 methylation, the role of H4K20 monomethylation (H4K20me-1) in transcriptional regulation remains unclear. Here, we show that Wnt3a specifically stimulates H4K20 monomethylation at the T cell factor (TCF)-binding element through the histone methylase SET8. Additionally, SET8 is crucial for acti...
متن کاملNickel binding to histone H4.
Nickel compounds influence carcinogenesis by interfering with a variety of cellular targets. It has been found that nickel is a potent inhibitor in vivo of histone H4 acetylation, in both yeast and mammalian cells. It has preference to specific lysine residues in the H4 N-terminal -S(1)GRGK(5)GGK(8)GLGK(12)GGAK(16)RH(18)RKVL(22) tail, in which the sites of acetylation are clustered. About the n...
