Conditional, temperature-induced proteolytic regulation of cyanobacterial RNA helicase expression
Download2014
Owttrim, George W., Tarassova, Oxana S., Chamot, Danuta
Conditional proteolysis is a crucial process regulating the abundance of key regulatory proteins associated with the cell cycle, differentiation pathways, or cellular response to abiotic stress in eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms. We provide evidence that conditional proteolysis is involved...

Designed zinc finger proteins as novel therapeutics inhibiting the transcription of hepatitis B and duck hepatitis B viruses
DownloadFall 2010
The Hepatitis B virus (HBV) chronically infects 350 million individuals worldwide, leading to mortality by end-stage liver disease, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The vaccine to prevent HBV infection is highly effective but is not extensively available in endemic areas, resulting...

Development of a porcine (Sus scofus) embryo-specific microarray: Annotation and validation
Download2012
Dobrinsky, John, Zhou, Chi, Pasternak, J. Alexander, Dyck, Michael K., Foxcroft, George R., Nieminen, Julie, Tsoi, Stephen, Rigault, Philippe, Sirard, Marc-André, Robert, Claude, Grant, Jason R.
Background The domestic pig is an important livestock species and there is strong interest in the factors that affect the development of viable embryos and offspring in this species. A limited understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in early embryonic development has inhibited our...

Forsyth, George W., Romancyia, D. A., Uwiera, Richard R. E., Wong, Jonathan P.
The B subunit of cholera toxin has been covalently attached to the surface of Uposomes made from a mixture of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphati- dylcholine and cholesterol. Adenylate cydase inhibitors and chloride conduc- tance inhibitors were encapsulated within the liposomes. These...

Oxidative stress mediates estrogen receptor independent killing and contributes to tamoxifen resistance
Download2016
Godbout, Roseline, Brindley, David N., McMullen, Todd, Mackey, John R., Benesch, Matthew, Mi, Si, Venkatraman, Ganesh, Liu, Rong-Zong, Curtis, Jonathan M., Tang, Xiaoyun, Bekele, Raie T.
Tamoxifen is the accepted therapy for patients with estrogen receptor-α (ERα)-positive breast cancer. However, clinical resistance to tamoxifen, as demonstrated by recurrence or progression on therapy, is frequent and precedes death from metastases. To improve breast cancer treatment it is vital...

Phytonutrient diet supplementation promotes beneficial Clostridia species and intestinal mucus secretion resulting in protection against enteric infection
Download2015
Wlodarska, Marta, Bravo, David M., Finlay, B.B., Willling, Benjamin P.
Plant extracts, or phytonutrients, are used in traditional medicine practices as supplements to enhance the immune system and gain resistance to various infectious diseases and are used in animal production as health promoting feed additives. To date, there are no studies that have assessed their...

In photosynthetic organisms it is becoming increasingly evident that light-driven shifts in redox potential act as a sensor that initiates alterations in gene expression at both the level of transcription and translation. This report provides evidence that the expression of a cyanobacterial RNA...

Roles of small RNAs in the effects of nutrition on apoptosis and spermatogenesis in the adult testis
Download2015
Malecki, Irek A., Martin, Graeme B., Cozens, Greg, Hawken, Penelope A.R., Liang, Guanxiang, Guan, Yongjuan, Vercoe, Philip E., Guan, Le Luo
We tested whether reductions in spermatozoal quality induced by under-nutrition are associated with increased germ cell apoptosis and disrupted spermatogenesis, and whether these effects are mediated by small RNAs. Groups of 8 male sheep were fed for a 10% increase or 10% decrease in body mass...

Structural and functional analysis of transmembrane segment VI of the NHE1 isoform of the na+/H+ exchanger
Download2009-01-01
Tzeng, Jennifer, Lee, Brian L., Sykes, Brian D., Fliegel, Larry
The Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 is a ubiquitously expressed integral membrane protein. It resides on the plasma membrane of cells and regulates intracellular pH in mammals by extruding an intracellular H+ in exchange for one extracellular Na+. We characterized structural and functional aspects of...

Lee, Brian L., Li, Xiuju J., Liu, Yongsheng, Sykes, Brian D., Fliegel, Larry
The Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 is a ubiquitously expressed integral membrane protein that regulates intracellular pH in mammals by extruding an intracellular H+ in exchange for one extracellular Na+. We characterized structural and functional aspects of the critical transmembrane (TM) segment XI...
