Integration of nuclear Ca2+ transients and subnuclear protein shuttling provides a novel mechanism for the regulation of CREB-dependent gene expression
Nuclear Ca 2+ waves elicited by NMDAR and L-type voltage-gated Ca 2+ -channels as well as protein transport from synapse-to-nucleus are both...

NF-κB1 p50 stabilizes HIF-1α protein through suppression of ATG7-dependent autophagy
The function and underlying mechanisms of p50 in the regulation of protein expression is much less studied because of its lacking of transactivation...

How is a Zinc Ion Correctly Allocated to a Zinc-dependent Protein?
This book chapter tries to visualize how a bacterial cell manages to bring zinc and no other transition metal cation to a zinc-dependent protein.... -
Autophagy initiation triggers p150Glued–AP-2β interaction on the lysosomes and facilitates their transport
The endocytic adaptor protein 2 (AP-2) complex binds dynactin as part of its noncanonical function, which is necessary for dynein-driven...

Calcium-dependent protein kinases CPK21 and CPK23 phosphorylate and activate the iron-regulated transporter IRT1 to regulate iron deficiency in Arabidopsis
Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for all organisms. Fe availability in the soil is usually much lower than that required for plant growth, and...
