Isopeptide and Ester Bond Ubiquitination Regulate Degradation of the Human Dopamine Receptor 4
Jennifer C Peeler
Jan 01, 0001
The human dopamine receptor 4 (hD4R) is a seven-transmembrane helical G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) found in neural synaptic membranes. The neurotransmitter dopamine binds to and activates the hD4R, which is involved in...

The mechanisms of boronate ester formation and fluorescent turn-on in ortho-aminomethylphenylboronic acids
ortho-Aminomethylphenylboronic acids are used in receptors for carbohydrates and various other compounds containing vicinal diols. The presence of the o-aminomethyl group enhances the affinity towards diols at neutral pH, and...

Protein-Truncating Variants at the Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein Gene and Risk for Coronary Heart Disease.
RATIONALE: Therapies that inhibit CETP (cholesteryl ester transfer protein) have failed to demonstrate a reduction in risk for coronary heart disease (CHD). Human DNA sequence variants that truncate the CETP gene may provide...

DDX3X RNA helicase affects breast cancer cell cycle progression by regulating expression of KLF4.
DDX3X is a multifunctional RNA helicase with documented roles in different cancer types. Here, we demonstrate that DDX3X plays an oncogenic role in breast cancer cells by modulating the cell cycle. Depletion of DDX3X in MCF7...

Can E-Government Serve as a Tool for Public Authorities to Manage Public Resources More Efficiently?
Innovations in the field of telecommunications and technological development in information processing affect the provision of public services. One of the main priorities of governments is to achieve greater efficiency in the...
Boronic Acid Mediated Coupling of Catechols and N-Hydroxylamines

An irreversible, three-component assembly with 2-formylphenylboronic acid, catechol, and N-hydroxylamines was achieved in aqueous media. The boronate ester product was formed with substituted catechols including l-DOPA....
