Phosphorylation of p53 modifies sensitivity to ionizing radiation.
Phosphorylation is an important modification involved in the control of p53 activity. We examined the relationship between p53 phosphorylation and cell radiosensitivity. We prepared H1299 cells (p53-null) with various mutations of p53 at three sites (serine 15, 20 and 46) and examined the radiosensitivity of the cells. In three mutant forms of p53--S15A, S20A and S46A--serine was converted to a...
متن کاملToxicity of aflatoxin B1 to penaeid shrimp.
Single intramuscular injections of aflatoxin B1 into the tail muscle of Penaeus stylirostris produced 24- and 96-h median lethal doses of 100.5 (78.3 to 129.0) and 49.5 (29.8 to 82.3) mg/kg, respectively. A toxicity curve showed no threshold at the levels tested. The mortality response in a feeding study with P. vannamei was not dose dependent, but tissue and organ damage were similar to that s...
متن کاملSuperoxide dismutase amplifies organismal sensitivity to ionizing radiation.
Although increased superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity is often associated with enhanced resistance of cells and organisms to oxidant challenges, few direct tests of the antioxidant importance of this enzyme have been carried out. To assess the importance of SOD in defending against gamma-radiation, we employed Escherichia coli with deficient, normal, and super-normal enzyme activities. Surpris...
متن کاملOptimization of Aflatoxin B1 Aptasensing
Combination of aptamers with DNAzymes attracted intense attention for development of DNA-based biosensors for detection of mycotoxins. In the present study a combination of aflatoxin B1 specific aptamer and HRP- (horseradish peroxidase-) mimicking DNAzyme was optimized for detecting aflatoxin B1. Detecting approach is based on the binding affinity of aflatoxin B1 to its specific aptamer and con...
متن کاملIonizing radiation sensitivity of DNA polymerase lambda-deficient cells.
Ionizing radiation induces a diverse spectrum of DNA lesions, including strand breaks and oxidized bases. In mammalian cells, ionizing radiation-induced lesions are targets of non-homologous end joining, homologous recombination, and base excision repair. In vitro assays show a potential involvement of DNA polymerase lambda in non-homologous end joining and base excision repair. In this study, ...
