The C-terminal peptide of CCL21 drastically augments CCL21 activity through the dendritic cell lymph node homing receptor CCR7 by interaction with the receptor N-terminus
The endogenous chemokines CCL19 and CCL21 signal via their common receptor CCR7. CCL21 is the main lymph node homing chemokine, but a weak...

Truncation of the N-terminus of cardiac troponin I initiates adaptive remodeling of the myocardial proteosome via phosphorylation of mechano-sensitive signaling pathways
The cardiac isoform of troponin I has a unique N-terminal extension (~ 1–30 amino acids), which contributes to the modulation of cardiac contraction...

Nicotine Replacement Therapy
Tobacco smoking with its long history is of still high prevalence worldwide and has a high impact on human health and an enormous economic burden due... -
A single amino acid at position 31 in the N-terminus of the coat protein of cucumber mosaic virus determines its avirulence function for RCY1-conferred virus resistance
The coat protein (CP) of the cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) yellow strain [CMV(Y)], but not the CMV B2 strain [CMV(B2)], serves as an avirulence...

Cross-presentation of a TAP-independent signal peptide induces CD8 T immunity to escaped cancers but necessitates anchor replacement
Cancer cells frequently display defects in their antigen-processing pathway and thereby evade CD8 T cell immunity. We described a novel category of...
