Dear Editor,rnTransmembrane proteins with multiple transmembrane domains are rarely found inside nuclei for good reason.To achieve intranuclear localization,the hypothetical transmembrane protein must first be extracted from its host membrane and the multiple hydrophobic transmembrane domains must be protected from the hydrophilic environment of the cytoplasm to maintain the proper conformation of the protein.Mechanistically,this poses consider-able challenges.

Dear Editor,rnThe ten mammalian Frizzleds (FZD1-10) belong to the class F of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and mediate WNT signaling through interaction with transducer proteins including Dishev-elled (DVL) or heterotrimeric G proteins.1 Their invol
Dear Editor,rnTargeted protein degradation (TPD) represents a promising research field that has quickly attracted attention and efforts from both academia and pharmaceutical industry.TPD technology uses small molecules to induce the degradation of target
Melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) plays a central role in the regulation of energy homeostasis.Its high sequence similarity to other MC receptor family members,low agonist selectivity and the lack of structural information concerning MC4R-specific activation
The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R),a hypothalamic master regulator of energy homeostasis and appetite,is a class A G-protein-coupled receptor and a prime target for the pharmacological treatment of obesity.Here,we present cryo-electron microscopy structur
IL-15 is a promising cytokine to expand NK and CD8+T cells for cancer immunotherapy,but its application is limited by dose-limiting,on-target off-tumor toxicity.Here,we have developed a next-generation IL-15 that is activated inside the tumor microenviron
Primary cilia extending from mother centrioles are essential for vertebrate development and homeostasis maintenance.Centriolar coiled-coil protein 110 (CP110) has been reported to suppress ciliogenesis initiation by capping the distal ends of mother centr
该研究根据NCBI公布的藜麦胁迫相关蛋白(SAP)基因CqSAP8序列进行克隆,利用生物信息学分析CqSAP8蛋白序列、理化性质和结构特点,并采用qRT-PCR方法检测CqSAP8基因表达的组织特异性及在非生物胁迫下的相对表达.结果表明:(1)藜麦CqSAP8基因CDS全长528 bp,编码175个氨基酸;预测CqSAP8蛋白分子量为18.73 kD,理论等电点为7.46,属于稳定的亲水性蛋白质;CqSAP8蛋白在N端和C端分别含有A20和AN1保守域,是SAP蛋白最典型的类型.(2)序列比对与进化分析显
Dear Editor,rnSince the declaration of COVID-19 as a global pandemic on March 11,2020,this pandemic has been circulating for 17 months throughout the world,leading to more than 200 million infections and nearly 4A million deaths as of August 15,2021.The p
开花是植物从营养生长到生殖生长转变的关键过程,PEBP(phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein)蛋白家族在植物开花过程中发挥重要调控作用.该研究分别采用信息学分析及RT-PCR方法,对茶树CsPEBP基因家族进行了鉴定、克隆和表达分析.结果表明:(1)成功克隆获得5个PEBP基因家族成员,并分别命名为CsATC、CsMFT、CsBFT、CsFT和CsTFL1,其长度为519~525 bp,分别编码172~174个氨基酸残基,定位于5条不同染色体.(2)结构分析显示
