Ligand-gated ion channels (LGICs) are cell surface integral proteins that mediate the fast neurotransmission in the nervous system. LGICs require auxiliary subunits for their trafficking, assembly and pharmacological ...

High conductance, calcium- and voltage-activated potassium (BK) channels are widely expressed in mammals. In some tissues, the biophysical properties of BK channels are highly affected by coexpression of regulatory (beta) ...

Protein kinase CK2 is a ubiquitous eukaryotic ser/thr protein kinase. The active holoenzyme is a heterotetrameric protein corn posed of catalytic (α and α') and regulatory (β) subunits that phosphorylates many different ...

The protein kinase casein kinase 2 (CK2) is ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells and is apparently involved in the control of cell division. The holoenzyme is a tetramer composed of two catalytic subunits (α and/or α') and ...

The strength of the interaction between the catalytic and regulatory subunits in protein kinase A differs among species. The linker region from regulatory subunits is non-conserved. To evaluate the participation of this ...

Protein kinase CK2 (casein kinase 2) is a ubiquitous Ser/Thr protein kinase involved in cell proliferation. Mutation of the α subunit of the Xenopus laevis CK2 to change aspartic acid 156 to alanine (CK2αA156) resulted in ...

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the high and low molecular weight glutenin subunits on the grain traits of sixteen Brazilian wheat genotypes. Grain hardness index, milling traits, physicochemical and rheological ...
