Proteins of molecular mass 46,000 (p46) and 34,000-39,000 (p36) daltons are phosphorylated at tyrosine in Rous sarcoma virus-transformed chicken and mouse fibroblasts. p46 has recently been identified as an isozyme of enolase but the function of p36 is unknown. The expression of these proteins in various mouse and rat tissues has been examined. In most tissues, except muscle, p46 is found at re...

Background : Signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) and protein kinase substrate p36 may be involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and growth. Methods : Immunohistochemistry for STAT3 and p36 was performed in 46 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Results : STAT3 staining was present in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus, while p36 staining was present in the ...

A chloroplast import receptor from pea, previously identified by antiidiotypic antibodies was purified and its primary structure deduced from its cDNA sequence. The protein is a 36-kD integral membrane protein (p36) with eight potential transmembrane segments. Fab prepared from monospecific anti-p36 IgG inhibits the import of the ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase small subunit precursor (pS...

The proteins P52 and P36 are expressed in the sporozoite stage of the murine malaria parasite Plasmodium berghei. Δp52&p36 sporozoites lacking expression of both proteins are severely compromised in their capability to develop into liver stage parasites and abort development soon after invasion; presumably due to the absence of a parasitophorous vacuole membrane (PVM). However, a small proporti...

The DNA sequence of the gene encoding the early and specific immunogenic protein P36 of Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae has been determined. Comparison of the DNA sequence and the deduced amino acid sequence of P36 with known genes and proteins in data banks indicated that P36 is a L-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (EC 1.1.1.27). Biochemical analysis of protein P36 expressed from the cloned gene in Escher...

The 36-kD protein-tyrosine kinase substrate p36 has been variously postulated to be involved in membrane-cytoskeletal interactions, membrane traffic, and the regulation of phospholipase A2, and its phosphorylation may play some role in malignant transformation by avian sarcoma viruses. Because embryonic tissues are resistant to transformation by avian sarcoma viruses, we have examined the expre...

We have cloned a mouse cDNA that encodes p36, a novel subunit of the CDK-activating kinase (CAK). p36 contains a C3HC4 zinc-binding domain or RING factor and is associated both with a TFIIH-bound form of CAK and with a free trimeric form. p36 promotes the assembly of CDK7 and cyclin H in vitro, stabilizing the transient CDK7-cyclin H complex. Stabilization and activation of CAK by p36 is indepe...

The inhibitory effects of Ca2+-binding proteins on tyrosine phosphorylation of p36 protein isolated from bovine intestinal epithelium by immunoprecipitated p130fps were investigated. S-100 protein dose dependently inhibited the p36 phosphorylation, and calmodulin weakly depressed the phosphorylation, whereas parvalbumin and troponin C had no significant effects. The S-100 preparation purified f...
