MassBank: a public repository for sharing mass spectral data for life sciences.
- Hisayuki Horai, M. Arita, +32 authors T. Nishioka
- Chemistry, Medicine
- Journal of mass spectrometry : JMS
- 1 July 2010
MassBank is the first public repository of mass spectra of small chemical compounds for life sciences (<3000 Da). The database contains 605 electron-ionization mass spectrometry (EI-MS), 137 fast… Expand
Trans-Synaptic Interaction of GluRδ2 and Neurexin through Cbln1 Mediates Synapse Formation in the Cerebellum
- Takeshi Uemura, Sung-jin Lee, +6 authors M. Mishina
- Biology, Medicine
- Cell
- 11 June 2010
Elucidation of molecular mechanisms that regulate synapse formation is required for the understanding of neural wiring, higher brain functions, and mental disorders. Despite the wealth of in vitro… Expand
Identification and Characterization of a Novel Lysophosphatidic Acid Receptor, p2y5/LPA6*
- Keisuke Yanagida, K. Masago, +6 authors S. Ishii
- Medicine, Biology
- The Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 22 April 2009
p2y5 is an orphan G protein-coupled receptor that is closely related to the fourth lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor, LPA4. Here we report that p2y5 is a novel LPA receptor coupling to the G13-Rho… Expand
Serum Lysophosphatidic Acid Is Produced through Diverse Phospholipase Pathways*
- J. Aoki, A. Taira, +7 authors H. Arai
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 13 December 2002
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a lipid mediator with multiple biological activities that accounts for many biological properties of serum. LPA is thought to be produced during serum formation based… Expand
The Surface of Lipid Droplets Is a Phospholipid Monolayer with a Unique Fatty Acid Composition*
- Kumi Tauchi-Sato, Shintaro Ozeki, T. Houjou, R. Taguchi, T. Fujimoto
- Chemistry, Medicine
- The Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 15 November 2002
We found that caveolin-2 is targeted to the surface of lipid droplets (Fujimoto, T., Kogo, H., Ishiguro, K., Tauchi, K., and Nomura, R. (2001) J. Cell Biol. 152, 1079–1085) and hypothesized that the… Expand
A Single Enzyme Catalyzes Both Platelet-activating Factor Production and Membrane Biogenesis of Inflammatory Cells
- H. Shindou, Daisuke Hishikawa, +4 authors T. Shimizu
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 2 March 2007
Platelet-activating factor (PAF) is a potent proinflammatory lipid mediator eliciting a variety of cellular functions. Lipid mediators, including PAF are produced from membrane phospholipids by… Expand
The Lipid Mediator Protectin D1 Inhibits Influenza Virus Replication and Improves Severe Influenza
Influenza A viruses are a major cause of mortality. Given the potential for future lethal pandemics, effective drugs are needed for the treatment of severe influenza such as that caused by H5N1… Expand
Fatty acid remodeling of GPI-anchored proteins is required for their raft association.
- Y. Maeda, Yuko Tashima, +5 authors T. Kinoshita
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular biology of the cell
- 1 April 2007
Whereas most of the cellular phosphatidylinositol (PI) contain unsaturated fatty chains and are excluded from rafts, GPI-anchored proteins (APs) unusually contain two saturated fatty chains in their… Expand
Cloning and Characterization of Mouse Lung-type Acyl-CoA:Lysophosphatidylcholine Acyltransferase 1 (LPCAT1)
- H. Nakanishi, H. Shindou, +5 authors T. Shimizu
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 21 July 2006
Phosphatidylcholine (1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, PC), is an important constituent of biological membranes. It is also the major component of serum lipoproteins and pulmonary surfactant.… Expand
A Novel Phosphatidic Acid-selective Phospholipase A1That Produces Lysophosphatidic Acid*
- H. Sonoda, J. Aoki, +6 authors H. Arai
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 13 September 2002
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a lipid mediator with diverse biological properties, although its synthetic pathways have not been completely solved. We report the cloning and characterization of a… Expand
