Structural and Functional Role of Acetyltransferase hMOF K274 Autoacetylation

751 views | Jun 09 2018

McCullough CE et al. pointed to the critical and specific role of hMOF Lys-274 autoacetylation in hMOF stability and cognate substrate acetylation and argues that binding of Ac-CoA to hMOF likely drives Lys-274 autoacetylation for subsequent cognate substrate acetylation. [Read the Full Post]

Signaling effects of sodium hydrosulfide in healthy donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells

817 views | Jun 04 2018

Sulen A et al. provided a description of a NaHS-induced signal transduction pathway in human primary immune cells that may have relevance for the role of sulfides in inflammation. [Read the Full Post]

ADAMTS13 and 15 are not regulated by the full length and N-terminal domain forms of TIMP-1, -2, -3 and -4

823 views | Jun 04 2018

Guo C et al. indicated that TIMPs are not the regulators of these two ADAMTS proteinases. [Read the Full Post]

A novel hypoxia-selective epigenetic agent RRx-001 triggers apoptosis and overcomes drug resistance in multiple myeloma cells
