hepatitis b virus (hbv) dna polymerase transactivated protein 1 (hbvdnaptp1) is a novel protein transactivated by hbv dna polymerase, screened by suppression subtractive hybridization technique (genbank accession no: ay450389). the biological function of hbvdnaptp1 was investigated in this study.we constructed a vector pcdna3.1 (-)/myc-his a-hbvdnaptp1 and used it to transfect acute monocytic l...

objective: druggability of a target protein depends on the interacting micro-environment between the target protein and drugs. therefore, a precise knowledge of the interacting micro-environment between the target protein and drugs is requisite for drug discovery process. to understand such micro-environment, we performed in silico interaction analysis between a human target protein, dipeptidyl...

Background: Protein-protein interactions do not provide any direct information re‌garding the domains within the proteins that mediate the interactions. The majority of proteins are multi domain proteins and the interaction between them is often defined by the pairs of their domains. Most of the former studies focus only on interacting do‌main pairs. However they do not consider the in...

Necroptosis, as a novel concept, has been recently introduced in scientific literature. Much of our knowledge about necroptosis comes from ligation of tumor necrosis factor-α to its receptor, TNF receptor 1. Receptor-interacting protein kinase 1, receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 and its substrate, the pseudokinase mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein, have been comprehensively st...

background:the zinc-finger x linked (zfx) gene encodes a transcription factor that acts as a regulator of self-renewal of stem cells. due to the role of zfx in cell growth, understanding zfx protein-protein interactions helps to clarify its proper biological functions in signaling pathways. the aim of this study is to define zfx protein-protein interactions and the role of zfx in cell growth. m...
