Role of epimorphin in bile duct formation of rat liver epithelial stem-like cells: involvement of small G protein RhoA and C/EBPβ.
Yali Jia, Hailei Yao, Junnian Zhou, Lin Chen, Quan Zeng, Hongfeng Yuan, Lei Shi, Xue Nan, Yunfang Wang, Wen Yue and Xuetao Pei
Abstract
We have shown recently that epimorphin (EPM), a protein exclusively expressed on the surface of hepatic stellate cells and myofibroblasts of the liver, induces bile duct formation of hepatic stem-like cells (WB-F344 cells) in a putative biophysical way. Therefore, the aim of this study was to presen... | PMID: 21935930

Efficient generation of a monoclonal antibody against the human C-type lectin receptor DCIR by targeting murine dendritic cells.
Gordon F Heidkamp, Kirsten Neubert, Eric Haertel, Falk Nimmerjahn, Michel C Nussenzweig and Diana Dudziak
Abstract
We investigated whether this novel strategy might also be useful for the generation of new monoclonal antibodies against molecules of choice. We show, that by targeting the extracellular domain of the human C-type lectin receptor ClecSF6/DCIR/LLIR (hDCIR) to DEC205 on DCs in vivo, we were able to ge... | PMID: 20566350

The catch bond mechanism between von Willebrand factor and platelet surface receptors investigated by molecular dynamics simulations.
Gianluca Interlandi and Wendy Thomas
Abstract
The multi-domain protein von Willebrand factor is crucial in the blood coagulation process at high shear. The A1 domain binds to the platelet surface receptor glycoprotein Ibalpha (GpIb alpha) and this interaction is known to be strengthened by tensile force. The molecular mechanism behind this obse... | PMID: 20602356

Anomalous diffusion reports on the interaction of misfolded proteins with the quality control machinery in the endoplasmic reticulum.
Nina Malchus and Matthias Weiss
Abstract
We have used fluorescence correlation spectroscopy to probe these interactions for a prototypical transmembrane protein, VSVG ts045, in vivo. While both folded and unfolded VSVG ts045 showed anomalous diffusion, the unfolded protein had a significantly stronger anomaly. This difference subsided when... | PMID: 20713018

Shedding of the mucin-like flocculin Flo11p reveals a new aspect of fungal adhesion regulation.
Sheelarani Karunanithi, Nadia Vadaie, Colin A Chavel, Barbara Birkaya, Jyoti Joshi, Laura Grell and Paul J Cullen
Abstract
We show here that Flo11p is shed from cells. Flo11p shedding attenuated adherence and contributed to the overall balance in adherence properties that was optimal for filamentous growth and mat formation. Shed Flo11p comprised an essential component of a fluid layer surrounding yeast mats that may be... | PMID: 20619652
