Some potential mechanisms for finely-tuned regulation of phospholipase C-β isozymes : studies of dimerization and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate activation

Creator:

Zhang, Yong

Abstract:

Phospholipase C-β (PLC-β) isozymes are key effectors in G protein-coupled signaling pathways. Prior research suggested that some isoforms of PLC-β may exist and function as dimers, but little is known about dimerization of PLC-β. Data from coimmunoprecipitation assays of differentially-tagged PLC-β constructs and sizeexclusion chromatography of native PLC-β support homodimerization...

Regulation of phospholipase C-beta isozymes by calmodulin

Creator:

McCullar, Jennifer Star

Abstract:

Phospholipase C-Jβ (PLCβ) is an important effector enzyme in G-protein-coupled signaling pathways. Activation of PLCβ by Gα and Gβy subunits has been fairly well characterized, but little is known about other protein interactions that may also regulate PLCβ function. A yeast two-hybrid screen of a mouse brain cDNA library with...
