Inhibition of topoisomerase IIα activity in CHO K1 cells by 2- [(aminopropyl)amino]ethanethiol (WR-1065)
(1994)The aminothiol 2-[(aminopropyl)amino]ethanethiol (WR-1065) is the active thiol of the clinically studied radioprotective agent S-2-(3- aminopropylamino)ethylphosphorothioic acid (WR-2721). WR-1065 is an effective radiation ...

Mutation analysis of coding sequences for type I procollagen in individuals with low bone density
(1994)Mutations in one of the two genes encoding type I procollagen (COL1A1 and COL1A2) are frequently the cause of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a disorder characterized by brittle bones. Here we tested whether patients with ...

Mutation in a gene for type I procollagen (COL1A2) in a woman with postmenopausal osteoporosis: Evidence for phenotypic and genotypic overlap with mild osteogenesis imperfecta
(1991)Mutations in the two genes for type I collagen (COL1A1 or COL1A2) cause osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a heritable disease characterized by moderate to extreme brittleness of bone early in life. Here we show that a 52-year-old ...

Neural hyperplasia induced by RNA interference with m4/mα gene activity
(2000)The E(spl) complex (E(spl)-C) contains three different classes of genes that are downstream of Notch signaling. The bHLH genes mediate the Notch signal by repressing proneural gene activity, for example during the ...

Neural network controlling feeding in Lymnaea stagnalis: Immunocytochemical localization of myomodulin, small cardioactive peptide, buccalin, and FMRFamide‐ related peptides
(1994)This paper investigates the distribution of four classes of neuropeptides, myomodulin, small cardioactive peptide (SCP), buccalin, and FMRFamide, in central neurons forming the network that underlies feeding behavior in ...

Neuralized Encodes a Peripheral Membrane Protein Involved in Delta Signaling and Endocytosis
(2001)Activation of the Notch (N) receptor involves an intracellular proteolytic step triggered by shedding of the extracellular N domain (N-EC) upon ligand interaction. The ligand Dl has been proposed to effect this N-EC shedding ...

The phosphoform of the regulatory subunit RII of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase possesses intrinsic topoisomerase activity
(1985)The phosphoform of the type II regulatory subunit (phospho-RII-cAMP) of cAMP-dependent protein kinase from rat liver was found to possess intrinsic topoisomerase activity towards several DNA substrates such as φX174, pBR322, ...

Processing of the FMRFamide Precursor Protein in the Snail Lymnaea stagnalis: Characterization and Neuronal Localization of a Novel Peptide, ‘SEEPLY’
(1993)In the pulmonate snail Lymnaea stagnalis, FMRFamide‐like neuropeptides are encoded by a multi‐exon genomic locus which is subject to regulation at the level of mRNA splicing. We aim to understand the post‐translational ...

Quantitative analysis of serum neutralization of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 from subtypes A, B, C, D, E, F, and I: Lack of direct correlation between neutralization serotypes and genetic subtypes and evidence for prevalent serum-dependent infectivity enhancement
(1996)Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) M group strains have been assigned to date to nine distinct genetic subtypes, designated A through I, according to phylogenetic analyses of nucleotide sequences of their env or ...

Rotenoids mediate potent cancer chemopreventive activity through transcriptional regulation of ornithine decarboxylasetissue plasminogen activator-mediated thrombolysis
(1995)For the discovery of new cancer chemopreventive agents, we have studied the potential of plant extracts to inhibit phorbol ester-induced ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity in cell culture. Four active rotenoids were ...

Article
Selection of cancer chemopreventive agents based on inhibition of topoisomerase II activity
(2000)The present study was undertaken to determine if in vitro inhibition of one or both of the two most dominant mammalian DNA topoisomerases (topos) is common among chemopreventive agents. To determine if an agent was a topo ...

Separation of the complexes formed between the regulatory and catalytic subunits of cyclic adenosine monophosphate-dependent protein kinase and topoisomerase I activity in preovulatory follicle-enriched immature rat ovaries
(1989)Our previous studies have shown that the regulatory subunits of the type II form of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (R‖) present in soluble extracts of immature rat ovaries elute from diethylaminoethyl-cellulose as three ...

A single base mutation in type I procollagen (COL1A1) that converts glycine α1-541 to aspartate in a lethal variant of osteogenesis imperfecta: Detection of the mutation with a carbodiimide reaction of DNA heteroduplexes and direct sequencing of products of the PCR
(1991)Skin fibroblasts from a proband with a lethal variant of osteogenesis imperfecta synthesized both apparently normal type I procollagen and a type I procollagen that had slow electrophoretic mobility because of posttranslational ...

Article
A single base mutation that converts glycine 907 of the α2(I) chain of type I procollagen to aspartate in a lethal variant of osteogenesis imperfecta. The single amino acid substitution near the carboxyl terminus destabilizes the whole triple helix
(1989)Type I procollagen was examined in cultured skin fibroblasts from a patient with a lethal variant of osteogenesis imperfecta. About half of the pro-α chains were post-translationally overmodified and had a decreased thermal ...

Somatic cell mosaicism: Another source of phenotypic heterogeneity in nuclear families with osteogenesis imperfecta
(1993)Mutations in the genes coding for the proα1 and proα2 chains of type I procollagen have been found in many patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a heritable disorder of connective tissue. The severity of the disease ...

The substitution of arginine for glycine 85 of the α1(I) procollagen chain results in mild osteogenesis imperfecta. The mutation provides direct evidence for three discrete domains of cooperative melting of intact type I collagen
(1991)We report a case of mild osteogenesis imperfecta in a 56-year-old male undergoing aortic valve replacement surgery. The primary defect in this patient was the substitution of arginine for glycine 85 in one of the two chains ...

Substitution of serine for α1(I)-glycine 844 in a severe variant of osteogenesis imperfecta minimally destabilizes the triple helix of type I procollagen. The effects of glycine substitutions on thermal stability are either position or amino acid specific
