Bunched and Madm: a novel growth-regulatory complex?
نویسنده
چکیده
By combining Drosophila genetics and proteomics Gluderer et al. report in this issue of Journal of Biology the isolation of a novel growth-regulatory complex consisting of Bunched and Madm. Future study of this complex will address the precise mechanism of growth control, regulation of complex activity, the interface with other growth pathways and a potential role in human cancer.

Madm (Mlf1 adapter molecule) cooperates with Bunched A to promote growth in Drosophila
BACKGROUND The TSC-22 domain family (TSC22DF) consists of putative transcription factors harboring a DNA-binding TSC-box and an adjacent leucine zipper at their carboxyl termini. Both short and long TSC22DF isoforms are conserved from flies to humans. Whereas the short isoforms include the tumor suppressor TSC-22 (Transforming growth factor-beta1 stimulated clone-22), the long isoforms are larg...
متن کاملCarbon nanotubes prolong the regulatory action of nerve growth factor on the endocannabinoid signaling
Introduction: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have shown enormous potential in neuroscience. Nerve growth factor (NGF)-CNTs complex promotes the neuronal growth, however, the underlying mechanism(s) have remained elusive. Based on the interplay between NGF and the endocannabinoid system, involvement of the neuroprotective endocannabinoid, 2-arachidonoyl glycerol (2-AG), was investigated in the mechanis...

Money laundering is among the most common financial crimes that negatively affect countries' economies and hurt their social and political relations. With the increasing growth of e-banking and the increase in electronic financial transactions, the identification of money laundering methods and behaviors has become more complex; because money launderers, by accessing the Internet and using new ...

A novel ternary Schiff base ligand (HL) of ONO type and its copper (II) complex weresynthesised using 2-aminophenol and o-acetoacetotoluidide. They have been characterised by theusual analytical and spectral methods. The interaction of the complex with calf-thymus (CT)DNA has been investigated by UV-Vis, viscosity measurement, cyclic voltammetry anddifferential pulse voltammetry studies. The re...
متن کاملIdentification of miR-24 and miR-137 as novel candidate multiple sclerosis miRNA biomarkers using multi-staged data analysis protocol
Many studies have investigated misregulation of miRNAs relevant to multiple sclerosis (MS) pathogenesis. Abnormal miRNAs can be used both as candidate biomarker for MS diagnosis and understanding the disease miRNA-mRNA regulatory network. In this comprehensive study, misregulated miRNAs related to MS were collected from existing literature, databases and via in silico prediction. A multi-staged...
