The conserved UL16 tegument protein of herpes simplex virus exhibits dynamic capsid-binding properties with a release mechanism that is triggered during initial virus attachment events. In an effort to understand the capsid association and subsequent release of UL16, we sought

Human cancer chemotherapy is limited by two major problems: the failure of commonly used anticancer drugs to act against tumor cells in a specific manner and the ability of malignant cells to resist killing by antineoplastic agents. Experimentally, both of
Intravenous infusions of glucose and amino acids increase both nitrogen balance and muscle accretion. We hypothesised that co-infusion of glucose (to stimulate insulin) and essential amino acids (EAA) would act additively to improve nitrogen balance by decreasing muscle protein degradation
Under normal growth conditions the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) negatively regulates the central autophagy regulator complex consisting of Unc-51-like kinases 1/2 (Ulk1/2), focal adhesion kinase family-interacting protein of 200 kDa (FIP200) and Atg13. Upon starvation, mTORC1-mediated repression

Imidazole alkaloids represent a rather small group of alkaloids and are assumed not to be of significance to the human food chain so far. In this study, novel imidazole alkaloids occurring in tomato products were synthesized and structurally characterized by
