Interaction of viral oncogenic proteins with the Wnt signaling pathway
It is estimated that up to 20% of all types of human cancers worldwide are attributed to viruses. The genome of oncogenic viruses carries genes that have protein products that act as oncoproteins in cell proliferation and transformation. The modulation of cell cycle control mechanisms, cellular regulatory and signaling pathways by oncogenic viruses, plays an important role in viral carcinogenes...
متن کاملThe wnt gene family codes for a group of cysteine-rich, secreted proteins, which are differentially expressed in the developing embryo and are possibly involved in cel-
The proto-oncogene int-1 (now renamed Wnt-1; Nusse et al., 1991) was discovered by the analysis of integration sites of mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) in virus-induced mammary tumors (Nusse and Varmus, 1982; for review, see Nusse, 1988). A link between tumor biology and developmental biology was established when Jakobovits et al. (1986) showed that the Wnt-1 gene was transcribed in mice betwe...
متن کاملTwo distinct proteins are associated with tetrameric acetylcholinesterase on the cell surface.
In mammalian brain, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) exists mostly as a tetramer of 70-kDa catalytic subunits that are linked through disulfide bonds to a hydrophobic subunit P of approximately 20 kDa. To characterize P, we reduced the disulfide bonds in purified bovine brain AChE and sequenced tryptic fragments from bands in the 20-kDa region. We obtained sequences belonging to at least two distinc...
متن کاملThe lymphocyte glycoprotein CD6 contains a repeated domain structure characteristic of a new family of cell surface and secreted proteins
The isolation, characterization, and expression of a full-length cDNA encoding the human T cell glycoprotein CD6 is described. COS cells transfected with the CD6 clone express a 90-kD protein that reacts with all available anti-CD6 monoclonal antibodies. RNA blot hybridization analysis indicates that CD6 transcripts are predominantly restricted to cells in the T lineage. The predicted CD6 seque...
متن کاملGlucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency Associated with Thalassemia and Sickle Cell Anemia in an Iranian Family
Sickle cell-thalassemia associated with glucose- 6-phosphate dehydrogenese deficiency is reported in an Iranian family. The father had sickle trait and G.6.P.D. deficiency, the mother minor thalassemia, one of the sons siclc:le ceH-thailasemiia., the oth-er sickle cell trait; the daughter had sickle cell-thalassemia and was carrier of G.6.P.D. deficiellcy.
