Heterozygous deletion of ITPR1, but not SUMF1, in spinocerebellar ataxia type 16
We have previously mapped autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) 16 to 3p26, overlapping with the locus of SCA15. Recently, partial deletions of ITPR1 and the neighbouring SUMF1 in the SCA15… Expand

Amino-terminal presequence of the precursor of peroxisomal 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase is a cleavable signal peptide for peroxisomal targeting.
To examine the function of the amino-terminal presequence of rat peroxisomal 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase precursor, fusion proteins of various amino-terminal regions of the precursor with non-peroxisomal… Expand

Role of Aromaticity of Agonist Switches of Angiotensin II in the Activation of the AT1 Receptor*
We have shown previously that the octapeptide angiotensin II (Ang II) activates the AT1 receptor through an induced-fit mechanism (Noda, K., Feng, Y. H., Liu, X. P., Saad, Y., Husain, A., and Karnik,… Expand

Angiotensin II type 1 and type 2 receptors bind angiotensin II through different types of epitope recognition.
OBJECTIVE This study was designed to demonstrate that the principle of molecular recognition underlying high-affinity binding of angiotensin II to the type 2 (AT2) receptor is distinct from that of… Expand

Ligand‐independent signals from angiotensin II type 2 receptor induce apoptosis
Conventional models of ligand–receptor regulation predict that agonists enhance the tone of signals generated by the receptor in the absence of ligand. Contrary to this paradigm, stimulation of the… Expand

Role of steroid 11 beta-hydroxylase and steroid 18-hydroxylase in the biosynthesis of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids in humans.
A gene encoding steroid 18-hydroxylase (P-450C18) was isolated from a human genomic DNA library. It was identified as CYP11B2, which was previously postulated to be a pseudogene or a less active gene… Expand

α‐Synuclein forms a complex with transcription factor Elk‐1
α‐Synuclein has been identified as a component of Lewy bodies in Parkinson's disease and diffuse Lewy body disease, and glial cytoplasmic inclusions (GCIs) in multiple system atrophy (MSA). To… Expand

Peroxisome targeting signal of rat liver acyl-coenzyme A oxidase resides at the carboxy terminus.
To identify the topogenic signal of peroxisomal acyl-coenzyme A oxidase (AOX) of rat liver, we carried out in vitro import experiments with mutant polypeptides of the enzyme. Full-length AOX and… Expand

Biosynthesis and intracellular transport of enzymes of peroxisomal beta-oxidation.
Three peroxisomal enzymes of beta-oxidation from rat liver were synthesized in a cell-free protein-synthesizing system derived from a lysate of rabbit reticulocytes. The in vitro products of acyl-CoA… Expand

Constitutive Activation of Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Alters the Orientation of Transmembrane Helix-2*
A key step in transmembrane (TM) signal transduction by G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is the ligand-induced conformational change of the receptor, which triggers the activation of a guanine… Expand
