Disease relevance of SORBS3

  • Differential expression of vinexin-beta in lesions with a thrombus compared to stable plaques could not be confirmed, indicating the importance of validation of proteomic analysis [1].
  • Theories like the belief that HIV is a harmless virus or does not exist (making precautions unnecessary), that AIDS is caused by the drugs used to treat it, or that the whole epidemic is a scam to sell pills and collect research grants, need better response from the medical, scientific, service, and activist communities [2].
 

Psychiatry related information on SORBS3

  • The fear of dealing with a patient who is "running a scam" to obtain prescription drugs, or the anxiety of having to deal with an overly zealous DEA agent, further complicates the physician's role in the care of these parties [3].
 

High impact information on SORBS3

 

Biological context of SORBS3

  • Vinexin, CAP/ponsin, ArgBP2: a novel adaptor protein family regulating cytoskeletal organization and signal transduction [9].
  • On the other hand, the phosphorylation was hardly detected in neurons cultured for 3 days, suggesting the presence of a yet unidentified regulatory mechanism of vinexin at the growth cone [10].
  • Vinexin is an adaptor protein that is supposed to play pivotal roles in cell adhesion, cytoskeletal organization and signaling [10].
  • Cysteine-scanning mutagenesis (SCAM) and computer-based modeling were used to investigate key structural features of the S6 transmembrane segment of the calcium-activated K(+) channel of intermediate conductance IKCa [11].
 

Anatomical context of SORBS3

 

Associations of SORBS3 with chemical compounds

  • Our SCAM results show that the interaction of [2-(trimethylammonium)ethyl] methanethiosulfonate bromide (MTSET) with cysteines engineered at positions 275, 278, and 282 leads to current inhibition [11].
 

Regulatory relationships of SORBS3

 

Other interactions of SORBS3

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of SORBS3

  • Nerve terminal localization of vinexin was confirmed by electron microscopy [10].
  • FDA petitioned to 'stop homeopathy scam' [14].
  • Immunohistochemistry and western blotting showed limited expression of both vinexin-beta and AAT in early lesions, whereas high expression of both proteins was found in advanced lesions [1].
  • Whatever the final answer turns out to be, the genetic dissection of the SCAM superfamilies has led to a much better understanding of the different steps required to form, differentiate and modify a synapse [15].
  • Using the Xenopus oocyte expression system and the SCAM (substituted cysteine accessibility method), we found that M3 segments of both NR1 and NR3A form a narrow constriction in the outer vestibule of the channel, which prevents passage of externally applied sulfhydryl-specific agents [16].
