Protocadherins bring cells together
Shining new light on the function of Aurora A A urora A isn’t exactly a mystery protein, but researchers have struggled to determine its function. Hégarat et al. discovered that the kinase helps line up mitotic chromosomes and spurs disassembly of microtubules during anaphase, in collaboration with its cousin Aurora B. Studies on various cell types have furnished contradictory answers about wha...
متن کاملN-Ras forms dimers at POPC membranes.
Ras is a central regulator of cellular signaling pathways. It is mutated in 20-30% of human tumors. To perform its function, Ras has to be bound to a membrane by a posttranslationally attached lipid anchor. Surprisingly, we identified here dimerization of membrane anchored Ras by combining attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, biomolecular simulations, and Förste...
متن کاملThe Ras G Domain Lacks the Intrinsic Propensity to Form Dimers.
Ras GTPase is a molecular switch controlling a number of cellular pathways including growth, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Recent reports indicated that Ras undergoes dimerization at the membrane surface through protein-protein interactions. If firmly established this property of Ras would require profound reassessment of a large amount of published data and modification of the...

متن کاملHow (not) to bring psychology and biology together
Evolutionary psychologists often try to ‘‘bring together’’ biology and psychology by making predictions about what specific psychological mechanisms exist from theories about what patterns of behaviour would have been adaptive in the EEA for humans. This paper shows that one of the deepest methodological generalities in evolutionary biology—that proximate explanations and ultimate explanations ...
