The role of autophagy and Alfy in degradation of protein aggregates associated with neurodegenerative disease

Protein conformational disorders are associated with the accumulation of insoluble ubiquitin-containing protein aggregates in the central nervous system (CNS). The traditional view is that such aggregates are degraded by proteasomes, but recent evidence i mplicates autophagy in this process as we...

Phosphoinositides in attenuation of growth factor signalling

Most growth factors control cellular functions by activating specific receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). While overactivation of RTK signalling pathways is strongly associated with carcinogenesis, it is becoming increasingly clear that impaired deactivatio n of RTKs may also be a mechanism in canc...

The role of tunneling nanotubes in cell to cell communication

Project title: The role of tunneling nanotubes in cell to cell communication Recently we have discovered that cells are connected by thin membrane tubes. These tubes referred to as tunneling nanotubes (TNTs), are a continuation of the cell membrane and are formed de novo when filopodia-like p...

Studies on Copper Homeostasis in Methylococcus Capsulatus based on the complete genomic sequence

Copper is an essential element required by all living systems. Copper can also cause serious cell damage through radical formation. Therefore, careful regulation of the intracellular copper concentration is required. Essentially no free copper is availabl e in the cytoplasm; the copper ions are b...

Timing of initiation of replication in E. coli

The research project described here is aimed at understanding the molecular mechanisms that govern timing of DNA replication in E. coli. We have shown that DNA replication is tightly coupled to cell growth in wild type E. coli cells. Initiation of replica tion occurs precisely at the same point i...

Use of genome-based microarray analyses to understand the oxidative stress response of an anaerobic microorganism growing at 100°C

Aerobic organisms require molecular O2 for energy conservation. This is a mixed blessing, however, as extremely reactive O2 derivatives (ROS) are produced during normal metabolism that can damage all cellular components. ROS have been implicated in a wide variety of human diseases, including can...

Interconnection of human Sprouty 2 (hSpry2), Cbl, and the EGF receptor (EGFR): impact on endocytosis of the EGFR from clathrin-coated pits

Growth factor receptors control cellular growth and differentiation by transmitting signals from outside the cell to the cell interior, particularly the nucleus. Signal transmission can be modulated in several ways. To control signaling, down-regulation o f receptors from the cell surface is impo...
