Association between human erythrocyte calmodulin and the cytoplasmic surface of human erythrocyte membranes
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1983-05-25)
This report describes Ca2+-dependent binding of 125I-labeled calmodulin (125I-CaM) to erythrocyte membranes and identification of two new CaM-binding proteins. Erythrocyte CaM labeled with 125I-Bolton Hunter reagent fully ...
The human Aquaporin-5 gene. Molecular characterization and chromosomal localization.
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1996-04-12)
The cDNA for the fifth mammalian aquaporin (AQP5) was isolated from rat, and expression was demonstrated in rat salivary and lacrimal glands, cornea, and lung (Raina, S., Preston, G. M., Guggino, W. B., and Agre, P. (1995) ...
Quantification of Aquaporin-CHIP water channel protein in microdissected renal tubules by fluorescence-based ELISA
(American Society for Clinical Investigation, 1995-01)
Several transporters have been localized along the nephron by physiological methods or immunocytochemistry. However, the actual abundance of these molecules has not been established. To accomplish this goal, we have developed ...
Molecular analysis of insertion/deletion mutations in protein 4.1 in elliptocytosis. II. Determination of molecular genetic origins of rearrangements
(American Society for Clinical Investigation, 1990-08)
Protein 4.1 is an approximately 80-kD structural protein in the membrane skeleton which underlies and supports the erythrocyte plasma membrane. The preceding companion paper presents a biochemical study of two abnormal ...
The Rh polypeptide is a major fatty acid-acylated erythrocyte membrane protein
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1988-12-05)
The erythrocyte Rh antigens contain an Mr = 32,000 integral protein which is thought to contribute in some way to the organization of surrounding phospholipid. To search for possible fatty acid acylation of the Rh polypeptide, ...
Aquaporin water channels: atomic structure molecular dynamics meet clinical medicine
(American Society for Clinical Investigation, 2002-06-01)
The mouse telomerase RNA 5"-end lies just upstream of the telomerase template sequence
(Oxford University Press, 1998-01-15)
Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein enzyme with an essential RNA component. Embedded within the telomerase RNA is a template sequence for telomere synthesis. We have characterized the structure of the 5' regions of the human ...
Identification of a Specific Telomere Terminal Transferase Activity in Tetrahymena Extracts
(Cell Press, 1985-12)
We have found a novel activity in Tetrahymena cell free extracts that adds tandem TTGGGG repeats onto synthetic telomere primers. The single-stranded DNA oligonucleotides (TTGGGG)4 and TGTGTGGGTGTGTGGGTGTGTGGG, consisting ...
Short telomeres and ataxia-telangiectasia mutated deficiency cooperatively increase telomere dysfunction and suppress tumorigenesis
(American Association of Cancer Research, 2003-12-01)
To examine the role of ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (Atm) in telomere function, we generated Atm and telomerase null mice (Atm(-/-) mTR(-/-) iG6 mice). These mice exhibited increased germ cell death and chromosome fusions ...
Human telomerase RNA and telomerase activity in immortal cell lines and tumor tissues
(American Association of Cancer Research, 1996-02-01)
Telomerase activity has been detected in many human immortal cells lines and in tumor tissues, whereas it is generally absent from primary cell strains and from many tumor adjacent tissue samples. With the recently cloned ...
