We have isolated cDNA clones of Spinacea oleracea L. and Oenothera hookeri of 930 and 1017 base pairs, respectively. The open reading frame deduced from the Oenothera sequence codes for a protein of a calculated molecular mass of 29,200. The primary amino acid sequence exhibits a very high degree (88%) of homology to the 14-3-3 protein from bovine brain, and protein kinase C inhibitor from shee...

of brain extract with, e.g. skeletal-muscle extract and comparing the pattern produced by the mixture with each organ electrophoresed separately but in parallel. At least three ‘constellations’ of protein spots appear to be present in all organs examined. The identity of these proteins is unknown. Several individual proteins, e.g. tubulin and actin, are also seen in all organs. At least eight p...

BACKGROUND KSR (kinase suppressor of Ras) is a recently identified putative protein kinase that positively mediates the Ras signaling pathway in the invertebrates Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster. The function of vertebrate KSR is not well characterized biochemically or biologically. RESULTS We examined the physiological role of KSR in vertebrate signal transduction using Xe...

Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a cAMP/protein kinase A (PKA)-regulated chloride channel whose phosphorylation controls anion secretion across epithelial cell apical membranes. We examined the hypothesis that cAMP/PKA stimulation regulates CFTR biogenesis posttranslationally, based on predicted 14-3-3 binding motifs within CFTR and forskolin-induced CFTR expression...

recombinant protein purification is a kind of sensitive and expensive method in genetics engineering. genetic manipulation leads to the expression of various proteins; it should be isolated with high purity finally. differed methods for protein purification are categorized, based on cast, quality, easy work and side effect of protein. in this article, we are investigating his his-tag protein pu...
