We synthesized three novel lipophilic derivatives of phenylalanyl-glycine (Phe-Gly), C4-Phe-Gly, C6-Phe-Gly and C8-Phe-Gly by chemical modification with butyric acid (C4), caproic acid (C6) and octanoic acid (C8). The effect of the acylation on the stability, permeability and accumulation of Phe-Gly
beta-Catenin nuclear import has been found to be independent of classical nuclear localization signal (NLS) nuclear import factors. Here, we test the hypothesis that beta-catenin interacts directly with nuclear pore proteins to mediate its own transport. We show that beta-catenin
Peptide ordering within nuclear pores in living cells.
Selective transport through the nuclear pore complex (NPC) requires nucleoporins containing natively unfolded phenylalanine-glycine (FG) domains. Several differing models for their dynamics within the pore have been proposed. We characterize the behavior of the FG nucleoporins in vivo using polarized fluorescence
An isomeric mixture of S-[(1 and 2)-phenyl-2-hydroxyethyl]glutathione (PHEG), a glutathione conjugate of styrene, is moderately nephrotoxic. Its in vivo nephrotoxicity was characterized by significant elevations in the urinary excretion of glucose, gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, glutamate dehydrogenase, N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase and lactic dehydrogenase 24
