Protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1), PRMT4, and PRMT5 catalyze the methylation of arginine residues on target proteins. Previous work suggests that these enzymes regulate skeletal muscle plasticity. However, the function of PRMTs during disuse-induced muscle remodeling is unknown. The purpose

Many enzymes are self-regulated and can either inhibit or enhance their own catalytic activity. Enzymes that do both are extremely rare. Many protein kinases autoactivate by autophosphorylating specific sites at their activation loop and are inactivated by phosphatases. Although mitogen-activated
A distinct combination of transcription factors elicits the acquisition of a specific fate and the initiation of a differentiation program. Multiciliated cells (MCCs) are a specialized type of epithelial cells that possess dozens of motile cilia on their apical surface.

The recruitment of the bromodomains of CREB-binding protein (CBP) and p300 by the acetylated myogenic transcription factor MyoD was previously shown to be critical for the enhanced MyoD transcriptional activity following acetylation at its Lys99 and Lys102 positions. However, the
The Reproducibility Project: Cancer Biology seeks to address growing concerns about reproducibility in scientific research by conducting replications of selected experiments from a number of high-profile papers in the field of cancer biology. The papers, which were published between 2010
We manufacture IP and antibody purification agarose beads that purify immunoglobulins and IgG fractions. Our kits also provide a total antibody purification process
