Muscle contraction depends on strictly controlled Ca2+ transients within myocytes. A major player maintaining these transients is the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase, SERCA. Activity of SERCA is regulated by binding of micropeptides and impaired expression or function of these peptide...
We report the high-throughput profiling of histone modifications in prostate cancer cells. By obtaining over 1 billion bases of sequence from chromatin immunoprecipitated DNA, we generated genome-wide chromatin-state maps of prostate cancer cells. we found androgen treatment dismisses a nucleosome o...
The mechanisms involved in the maintenance of memory IgE responses are poorly understood, and the role played by germinal center (GC) IgE cells in these memory responses is particularly unclear. IgE B-cell differentiation is characterized by a transient GC phase, a bias towards the plasma cell (PC) ...
The adult human lung harbours a significant proportion of immune cells, which are known to play a crucial role in both normal lung homeostasis and pathogenesis. In this work, we collected CD45-enriched human lung cells from 6 to 22 week post conception (pcw) and built a single-cell transcriptome and...

Abnormal changes in the neuronal microtubule-associated protein Tau, such as high phosphorylation and aggregation, are considered hallmarks of cognitive deficits in Alzheimer disease. Abnormal phosphorylation is thought to take place before aggregation, and therefore it is often assumed that phospho...
ORGANISM(S): Spodoptera frugiperda Homo sapiens (Human) Escherichia coli
The only membrane-anchored and essential ATP-dependent protease in Escherichia coli is FtsH. It controls the intracellular concentration of the deacetylase LpxC, which catalyses the first committed step in lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis. LpxC stability is strictly regulated in a growth rate-depende...
