  • Cytoskeletal regulation in cell motility and invasion

    Creator:
    Jang, Hyo Sang
    Abstract:
    Cell motility and invasion are important for development, immunity, wound healing, and tumor cell metastasis. Cells on two dimensional substrates migrate in three steps: protrusion of the front end, translocation of the cell body, and retraction of the rear end. For cells to migrate efficiently, these steps need to be...

  • Regulation of NMDA-type glutamate receptors and MDR1 by two members of the EF-hand protein family

    Creator:
    Bajaj, Gaurav
    Abstract:
    EF-hand proteins are a conserved family of proteins that are modulated by divalent cations and regulate diverse cellular activities. In the present study we characterized the molecular determinants of myosin regulatory light chain (RLC) interaction with several subunits of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-type glutamate receptor. Myosin RLC is an EF-hand protein...
