    Inhibition of the growth of WI-38 fibroblasts by benzyloxycarbonyl-Leu-Leu-Tyr diazomethyl ketone: evidence that cleavage of p53 by a calpain-like protease is necessary for G1 to S-phase transition

    The effect of a calpain-selective cell permeant inhibitor, benzyloxycarbonyl Leu-Leu-Tyr diazomethylketone (ZLLY-CHN2), on the serum-stimulated growth of WI-38 human fibroblasts has been investigated. Only cell p...

    Mob-1, a Ras target gene, is overexpressed in colorectal cancer

    Mutations in the ras oncogenes have been linked to many different cancers. In contrast to the extensive body of knowledge related to the genetics of ras activation, relatively little is known of the transcript...

    The 96 kDa protein kinase activated by oncogenic Ras in Xenopus egg extracts is also activated by constitutively active Mek: activation requires serine/threonine phosphorylation

    In the Xenopus egg and oocyte system, oncogenic Ras protein can induce cell cycle arrest. The effect of oncogenic Ras on the cell cycle seems to be mediated by the Raf – Mek – Erk pathway of Ras signal transdu...

    Inhibition of the prenylation of K-Ras, but not H- or N-Ras, is highly resistant to CAAX peptidomimetics and requires both a farnesyltransferase and a geranylgeranyltransferase I inhibitor in human tumor cell lines

    The farnesyltransferase (FTase) inhibitor FTI-277 is highly effective at blocking oncogenic H-Ras but not K-Ras4B processing and signaling. While inhibition of processing and signaling of oncogenic K-Ras4B is ...

    p53 expression overcomes p21WAF1/CIP1-mediated G1 arrest and induces apoptosis in human cancer cells

    The p21WAF1/CIP1 gene, which encodes a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, may be critical for tumor suppressor gene p53-induced cell cycle arrest. The p53 gene is known to regulate G1 checkpoint, which can either...
