objective(s): the rotavirus nonstructural protein 4 (nsp4) is responsible for the increase in cytoplasmic calcium concentration through a phospholipase c-dependent and phospholipase c-independent pathways in infected cells. it is shown that increasing of intracellular calcium concentration in rotavirus infected cells is associated with the activation of some members of protein kinases family su...

The effects and interaction between cAMP-analogue dibutyryl-cAMP and calmodulin antagonists were investigated on de novo synthesis and secretion of lipids in cultures of hepatoma McArdle-RH7777 cells and normal rat hepatocytes. Dibutyryl cAMP caused a significant decrease in the secretion of de novo synthesized triacyl [3H] glycerol in both cultures of McArdle cells and rat hepatocytes. The ...

A multifactorial syndrome, Alzheimer’s disease is the main cause of dementia, but there no existing therapy to prevent it or stop its progression. One earliest events disruption calcium homeostasis that just a prelude disease’s devastating impact. Calcium does not work alone must interact with downstream cellular components which small regulatory protein calmodulin central, if primary. This rev...

the effects of camp-analogue dibutyryl-camp and anticalmodulin w-7 were studied on de novo synthesis and secretion of lipids in cultures of hepatoma mcardle rh7777 cells and normal rat hepatocytes. dibutyryl-camp and w -7 separately caused a significant decrease in the secretion of de novo synthesized triacyl [3h]glycerol in both cultures of mcardle cells and rat hepatocytes. the inhibitory eff...

An anti-calmodulin monoclonal antibody having an absolute requirement for Ca2+ has been produced from mice immunized with a mixture of calmodulin and calmodulin-binding proteins. Radioimmune assays were developed for the determination of its specificity. the epitope for this antibody resides on the COOH-terminal half of the mammalian protein. Plant calmodulin or troponin C had little reactivity...

In Arabidopsis and other plants there are multiple calmodulin isoforms. However, the role of these isoforms in regulating the activity of target proteins is obscure. Here, we analyzed the interaction between a kinesin-like calmodulin-binding motor protein (Reddy, A. S. N., Safadi, F., Narasimhulu, S. B., Golovkin, M., and Hu, X. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 7052-7060) and three calmodulin isoform...
