High impact information on azanide

  • Studies in whole cells and in cell-free systems indicate that structural requirements around the COOH-terminal cleavage site of nascent proteins are similar to those at the cleavage site of NH2-terminal signal peptidase [11].
  • The molecular domains that are conserved in all members of the TRP family constitute parts of the transmembrane domains and in most members also the ankyrin-like repeats at the NH2 terminal of the protein and a "TRP domain" at the COOH terminal, which is a highly conserved 25-amino acid stretch with still unknown function [12].
  • It appears that in a single open-close gating cycle, an individual CFTR channel hydrolyzes one ATP molecule at the NH2-terminal NBD to open the channel, and then binds and hydrolyzes a second ATP molecule at the COOH-terminal NBD to close the channel [13].
  • The collectins, so named because they have in common an NH2-terminal collagen-like domain and a COOH-terminal lectin (carbohydrate binding) domain, are found in both lung and serum and participate in "innate" immunity, acting before induction of an antibody-mediated response [14].
  • The NH2-terminal 85 amino acids of Apaf-1 show 21% identity and 53% similarity to the NH2-terminal prodomain of the Caenorhabditis elegans caspase, CED-3 [15].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of azanide

 

Biological context of azanide

  • Antibodies directed against a 13 amino acid sequence (13-mer) near the NH2 terminus of the protein were found to inhibit cell reassociation [21].
  • Here, we show that the binding site on ICAM-1 for Mac-1 is unexpectedly distinct from that for LFA-1 and maps to the third NH2-terminal immunoglobulin-like domain [4].
  • The ultraviolet (UV) response of mammalian cells is characterized by a rapid and selective increase in gene expression mediated by AP-1 and NF-kappa B. The effect on AP-1 transcriptional activity results, in part, from enhanced phosphorylation of the c-Jun NH2-terminal activation domain [22].
  • Band III was found to insert into dog pancreatic microsomes in a cotranslational manner; in synchronized translation studies microsomes could be added as late as the time when the hydrophilic NH2-terminal half of the protein had been synthesized and still allow normal transmembrane insertion and glycosylation [23].
  • RNA transcripts encoding the complete human glucose transporter (GT) or fragments of GT corresponding to the NH2-terminal 340 amino acids (GT-N) or the COOH-terminal 148 amino acids (GT-C) were synthesized in vitro from SP6 plasmids [24].
 

Anatomical context of azanide

  • Using H-Ras-SREBP-2 fusion proteins, we show that the NH2-segment is released from membranes by two sequential cleavages [25].
  • In all cases the mutant glycoproteins are inserted normally into the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, receive the two-high-mannose oligosaccharides, and apparently lose the NH2-terminal signal sequence of 16 amino acids [26].
  • Characterization of an AE3 mutant lacking the NH2-terminal 645 amino acids demonstrates that the COOH-terminal half of the polypeptide is both necessary and sufficient for correct insertion into the plasma membrane and for anion exchange activity [27].
  • Taken together, the results imply that both the NH2- and COOH-terminal fps-specific portions of the FSV oncogene product possess determinants which function in fibroblast transformation, and that cooperation of these two regions is not sensitive to their separation in the primary structure [28].
  • The NH2-terminal domain may play a role in regulating the activity of the exchanger and may be involved in the structural organization of the cytoskeleton in neurons [27].
 

Associations of azanide with other chemical compounds

  • Certain mutant Chinese hamster ovary cells are auxotrophic for cholesterol because they fail to carry out the second cleavage; the NH2-segment remains membrane-bound and transcription is not activated [25].
  • ATF2 was phosphorylated by JNK on two closely spaced threonine residues within the NH2-terminal activation domain [29].
  • These results suggest that the hydrophobic NH2-terminus is constrained in Ca(2+)-free recoverin and liberated by Ca2+ binding [30].
  • The NH2-terminal half of the protein shows significant amino acid sequence identity to a family of bacterial proteins that transport sugars, citrate, and drugs [31].
  • Patients with HD have an expanded NH2-terminal polyglutamine region in huntingtin [32].
 

Gene context of azanide

  • The minor subunit can be fully encoded by the X-linked G6PD cDNA, but the NH2-terminal region of the major subunit cannot [33].
  • Caspase-9 and Apaf-1 bind to each other via their respective NH2-terminal CED-3 homologous domains in the presence of cytochrome c and dATP, an event that leads to caspase-9 activation [34].
  • Tatemoto and Mutt recently used the presence of a C-terminal NH2 group to identify and isolate a new peptide, neuropeptide Y (NPY), from porcine brain [35].
  • With the use of MR-GR chimeras, a segment of the NH2-terminal region of GR (amino acids 105 to 440) was shown to be required for this repression [36].
  • The NH2-terminal locations of a dimer containing the DNA binding domain of the yeast transcriptional activator GCN4 have been mapped on the binding sites 5'-CTGACTAAT-3' and 5'-ATGACTCTT-3'. Affinity cleaving was effected by synthetic GCN4 proteins with Fe.EDTA moieties at the NH2-terminus [37].
