The gene codes for p38 alpha, a serine-threonine kinase known to be highly responsive to genotoxic stress. p38 also activates the p53 tumor suppressor and functions as an upstream regulator of NF-κB. Together, p38 links pro-inflammatory and pro-apoptotic signaling pathways and was shown to be...
True or false? Chiral molecules are always optically active. True or false? Threonine has more than one stereocenter (chiral center). True or false? Gln and Asn are polar amino acids. All molecules that have carbons with a tetrahedral shape are chiral. True False ...
While the evolutionary relationship between ObaG and FTase is not so easily determined when comparing different phylogenies (Supplementary Figs 15 and 16), what is clear is that they are distinct from the L-threonine:uridine-50 transaldolase (LipK) clade. In addition, OrfA—identified as a ...

3.3. Mutation of a basic residue at position β3C5 of Scrib-PDZ3 reduces the binding with MCC The effect of phosphorylation at position − 2 of the PDZ-binding motif is well described and is predicted to prevent an interaction between the unphosphorylated serine/threonine at position − 2...
The amino acids are arranged in three types: polar and acidic, polar and basic, and non-polar and neutral. The solubility of the protein is determined...Become a member and unlock all Study Answers Start today. Try it n...
CKII phosphorylates serine or threonine in acidic domains, with (S/T)XX(D/E) being the cano- nical motif (Hrubey and Roach, 1990; Marin et al., 1992). CKII was postulated to contribute to tumorige- nesis because its activity is enriched in many human solid tumors, transformed cell ...
Representative isotherms for: C, E286K/D290K or D, E286K/F337A mutant Tat-SF1 (residues 1–360) titrated with SF3b1 ULM5 are shown. At the C terminus of SF3b1 ULM4, a threonine-proline (TP) motif packs against an exposed Tat-SF1 tryptophan (Trp336) at the X position of the...
While TGF-β signaling is essential for microglial function, the cellular source of TGF-β1 ligand and its spatial regulation remains unclear in the adult CNS. Our data supports that microglia but not astrocytes or neurons are the primary producers of TG
Leucine-176, mutated in LPZS- resistant mutants, and threonine 313, mutated in imidazopyridine amide (IPA)-resistant mutants, are depicted as cyan sticks. (b) Dose–response curve of the imidazopyridine amide (GSK2111534A) against wild-type Mtb, the L176P mutant and the T313A mutant (...
