  1. 1. Structural Study of the WH2 Family and Filamin: Implications for Actin Cytoskeleton Regulation

    Författare :Adeleke H. Aguda; Robert Robinson; Lars Rask; Lars Backman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Biochemistry; Actin; Thymosin; Ciboulot; N-WASP; Filamin; Calponin homology domain; WH2; Protein Crystallography; Biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Cellular processes like motility, chemotaxis, phagocytosis and morphogenesis are dependent on the dynamic regulation of the actin cytoskeleton. This cytoskeleton system is tightly controlled by a number of diverse actin-binding proteins (ABPs) by various mechanisms described as nucleation, polymerization, capping, severing, depolymerization and sequestration.

  3. 2. Molecular characterization and evolution of alpha-actinin : from protozoa to vertebrates

    Författare :Ana Virel; Lars Backman; Kristina Djinovic-Carugo; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; alpha-actinin; evolution; spectrin repeat; intragene duplication; phylogenetic tree; spectrin superfamily; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : alpha-actinin is a ubiquitous protein found in most eukaryotic organisms. The ability to form dimers allows alpha-actinin to cross-link actin in different structures. In muscle cells alpha-actinin is found at the Z-disk of sarcomeres. LÄS MER

  4. 3. LRIG1 in lung cancer : prognostic effects and mechanistic studies
