Tyrosine Sulfation of Statherin
Tyrosylprotein sulfotransferase (TPST), responsible for the sulfation of a variety of secretory and membrane proteins, has been identified and characterized in submandibular salivary glands (William et al. Arch Biochem Biophys 1997; 338: 90-96). In the present study we demonstrate the sulfation of a salivary secretory protein, statherin, by the tyrosylprotein sulfotransferase present in human s...
متن کاملTyrosine O Sulfation: An Overview
Tyrosine O sulfation is a post translational modification (PTM) originally discovered by Bettelheim in 1954 in the bovine protein fibrinogen. Currently, this PTM is found only in secreted and transmembrane proteins of higher eukaryotes. This article gives an overview of experimental tools to study tyrosine O sulfation and also describes the biological function of this PTM.
متن کاملCritical role of platelet glycoprotein ibα in arterial remodeling.
OBJECTIVE Arteriogenesis is strongly dependent on the recruitment of leukocytes, especially monocytes, into the perivascular space of growing collateral vessels. On the basis of previous findings that platelets are central players in inflammatory processes and mediate the recruitment of leukocytes, the aim of this study was to assess the role of platelets in a model of arterial remodeling. AP...
متن کاملA critical role of platelet glycoprotein Ibα in arterial remodeling.
T he canonical role of platelets is hemostasis in which they function as highly specialized cells designed to plug holes in the blood vascular system. To accomplish this task, platelets have evolved unique molecular tools that enable them to function in the vascular environment, such as the GPIbα receptor complex that mediates platelet adhesion to the vessel wall in the face of high shear force...
متن کاملAdhesion Maturation of Neutrophils on Nanoscopically Presented Platelet Glycoprotein Ibα
Neutrophilic granulocytes play a fundamental role in cardiovascular disease. They interact with platelet aggregates via the integrin Mac-1 and the platelet receptor glycoprotein Ibα (GPIbα). In vivo, GPIbα presentation is highly variable under different physiological and pathophysiological conditions. Here, we quantitatively determined the conditions for neutrophil adhesion in a biomimetic in v...
