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...

Creator:: Zamzow, Daniel R.
Abstract:: Memory is essential to everyday life. As we age, deficits in memory become apparent. The toll of age-related cognitive impairment can be devastating to families and costly to society. The NMDA receptor is a molecule in the brain that is instrumental in the formation of memories. The receptor is particularly...

Creator:: Berman, Frederick W.
Abstract:: A model of acute glutamate- and domoate-induced toxicity was developed and characterized in cultured rat cerebellar granule cells (CGCs) using experimental conditions which preserve the voltage-dependency of NMDA receptor function. Glutamate, which is normally non-toxic to CGCs in physiologic media (pH 7.4), was shown to induce a cytotoxic response after...

Creator:: Campbell, Yan
Abstract:: The human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP) is a broad spectrum microbicidal agent and modulator of both the innate and adaptive immune system. It is induced by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)₂D₃) through activation of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and primary bile salts through activation of the xenobiotic nuclear receptor farnesoid X...
