Bax Inhibitor-1-Mediated Inhibition of Mitochondrial Ca2+ Intake Regulates Mitochondrial Permeability Transition Pore Opening and Cell Death
A recently studied endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress regulator, Bax inhibitor-1 (BI-1) plays a regulatory role in mitochondrial Ca(2+) levels. In this study, we identified ER-resident and mitochondria-associated ER membrane (MAM)-resident populations of BI-1. ER stress increased mitochondrial Ca(2+) to a lesser extent in BI-1-overexpressing cells (HT1080/BI-1) than in control cells, most likely...
متن کاملInteraction of Bestrophin-1 and Ca2+ Channel β-Subunits: Identification of New Binding Domains on the Bestrophin-1 C-Terminus
Bestrophin-1 modulates currents through voltage-dependent L-type Ca(2+) channels by physically interacting with the β-subunits of Ca(2+) channels. The main function of β-subunits is to regulate the number of pore-forming Ca(V)-subunits in the cell membrane and modulate Ca(2+) channel currents. To understand the influence of full-length bestrophin-1 on β-subunit function, we studied binding and ...
متن کاملElectrophysiological study of a novel large pore formed by Bax and the voltage-dependent anion channel that is permeable to cytochrome c.
The Bcl-2 family of proteins, consisting of anti-apoptotic and pro-apoptotic members, regulates cell death by controlling mitochondrial membrane permeability that is crucial for apoptotic signal transduction. We have recently shown that some of these proteins, such as Bcl-x(L), Bax, and Bak, directly modulate the mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) and thus regulate apoptogenic...

در دوره های آموزش ترجمه استادان بیشتر سعی دارند دانشجویان را با انواع متون آشنا سازند، درحالی که کمتر به خطاهای مکرر آنان در متن ترجمه شده می پردازند. اهمیت تحقیق حاضر مبنی بر ارتکاب مکرر خطاهای ترجمانی حتی بعد از گذراندن دوره های تخصصی ترجمه از سوی دانشجویان است. هدف از آن تاکید بر خطاهای رایج میان دانشجویان مترجمی و کاهش این خطاها با افزایش آگاهی و هوشیاری دانشجویان از بروز آنها است.از آنجا ک...
15 صفحه اولPurified ryanodine receptor from skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum is the Ca2+-permeable pore of the calcium release channel.
The ryanodine receptor of rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum was purified by immunoaffinity chromatography as a single approximately 450,000-Da polypeptide and it was shown to mediate single channel activity identical to that of the ryanodine-treated Ca2+ release channel of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The purified receptor had a [3H]ryanodine binding capacity (Bmax) of 280 pmol/mg an...
