1. Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans Isomerases in the Chloroplast Thylakoid Lumen
Sammanfattning : The Sun is the ultimate energy source on Earth. Photosynthetic organisms are able to catalyze the conversion of solar energy to chemical energy by a reaction called photosynthesis. In plants, this process occurs inside a green organelle called the chloroplast. LÄS MER
2. Regulation of transcription factors by XAP-2 : a member of the Hsp90 chaperone complex
Sammanfattning : The AhR belongs to the bHLH/PAS family of transcription factors, which mediates biological effects of environmental pollutants such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-rho-dioxin (TCDD). In the absence of ligand the AhR is located in the cytoplasmatic compartment of the cell associated with the molecular chaperone Hsp90, p23 and a member of the immunophilin family of proteins, XAP-2.

3. Effects and mechanisms of actions of cyclosporin, FK506 and 15-deoxyspergualin
Sammanfattning : Immunosuppressive drugs can be used to deal with unwanted or inappropriate immune reactions, such as the rejection of a transplanted organ. However, treatment with these drugs are often associated with serious adverse effects, and therefore less toxic immunosuppressants are desired. LÄS MER
4. Regulation of dioxin receptor function by the Hsp90 chaperone complex
Sammanfattning : In mammals the basic helix-loop-helix/Per-Arnt-Sim (bHLH/PAS) family of transcription factors includes the dioxin receptor which is a ligand-dependent transcription factor which mediates biological effects of environmental pollutants such as 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-rho-dioxin (dioxin). In the absence of ligand, the dioxin receptor is associated with the molecular chaperone Hsp90 and two Hsp90-interacting proteins, the co-chaperone p23 and an immunophilin-like protein XAP2. LÄS MER
