If GETV uses LDLR as a host cell receptor, the soluble LDLR-LBD should be able to inhibit GETV infection. To test this hypothesis, we performed in vitro neutralization assays using rGETV-EGFP virions and purified GST-LBD. We found that GST-LBD, but not GST, neutralized the infectivity o...
Enzyme inhibition is a reaction between a molecule and an enzyme that blocks the action of the enzyme, either temporarily or permanently, depending on the type of enzyme inhibitor involved. This process occurs in the natural world all the time, and it has a number of applications for humans,...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers, posing a serious public health challenge that necessitates the development of new therapeutics, therapies, and prevention methods. Among the various therapeutic approaches, interventi
recombinant DNAs containing a gene coding for a heat-stable alpha -amylase, which DNAs contain at least: - the DNA fragment of a Bacillus licheniformis strain, coding for a heat-stable alpha -amylase, and - a DNA fragment of a plasmid, of a phage lambda or of a phage lambda derivative...
Innate immune responses are evolutionarily conserved processes that provide crucial protection against invading organisms. Gene activation by potent NF-κB transcription factors is essential both in mammals and Drosophila during infection and stress chal
as RDC7, is a receptor for adenosine. It is mediated by G proteins which inhibit adenylyl cyclase. Adenosine is an important mediator of ethanol intoxication and exerts some of its effects via ADORA1 in the central nervous system. The antibody is specific to ADORA1.adenosine A1 receptor ...
The estrogen-related receptor alpha (ERRα) is a primary regulator of mitochondrial energy metabolism, function and dynamics, and has been implicated in autophagy and immune regulation. ERRα is abundantly expressed in the intestine and in cells of the immune system. However, its role in inflammat...
As a cell surface-bound enzyme, ADA-1 requires plasma membrane-anchoring proteins. Three ADA-1-anchoring proteins have been described: adenosine receptor 1 (A1R), adenosine receptor 2b (A2bR) and CD26 (dipeptidyl-peptidase IV, DDP4)7. Through a mechanism dependent upon its binding to cell ...
