expression of receptor tyrosine kinase ror1 in a wide variety of cancers has emerged as a new era focusing on targeting this receptor in cancer therapy. our preliminary re-sults indicate the presence of a truncated transcript of ror1 in tumor cells. the trun-cated ror1 encompasses extracellular and transmembrane domains, lacking catalytic kinase domain (ror1-ecd). as enzyme activity is highly d...

there is no functional annotation for the majority of the several hundreds of receptor-like kinases in plants. a direct way of inferring the function of these proteins is to study the phenotype that results from loss of function mutants such as t-dna mutant lines. in this research a function (phenotype) to at2g37050 gene that encodes a receptor like kinase in arabidopsis t-dna line was assigned...

the hydrophobic proteins of plant plasma membrane still remain largely unknown.  for example in the arabidopsis genome, receptor-like kinases (rlks) are plasma membrane proteins, functioning as the primary receptors in the signaling of stress conditions, hormones and the presence of pathogens form a diverse family of over 610 genes. a limited number of these proteins have appeard in protein pro...

pyruvate kinase is a key enzyme in glycolytic pathway that catalyzes the transphosphorylation between phosphoenolpyruvate and adp to yield atp and pyruvate. geobacillus stearothermophillus has a stable pyruvate kinase with determined crystal structure that composed of four separate domains. given that limited proteolysis experiments can be successfully used to probe conformational features of p...

Introduction: Increased oxidative stress is widely accepted to be a factor in the development and progression of Alzheimer’s disease. Triazine derivatives possess a wide range of pharmacological activities including anti-oxidative and anti-in.ammatory actions. In this study, we aimed to investigate the possible protective effect of 3-thioethyl-5,6-dimethoxyphenyl-1,2,4-triazine (TEDMT) on H2O2-...
