Nitric oxide and cGMP cause vasorelaxation by activation of a charybdotoxin-sensitive K channel by cGMP-dependent protein kinase.
Nitric oxide (NO)-induced relaxation is associated with increased levels of cGMP in vascular smooth muscle cells. However, the mechanism by which cGMP causes relaxation is unkno...
The Fluid Mosaic Model of the Structure of Cell Membranes
A fluid mosaic model is presented for the gross organization and structure of the proteins and lipids of biological membranes. The model is consistent with the restrictions impo...
Protein Lipidation in Cell Signaling
The ability of cells to communicate with and respond to their external environment is critical for their continued existence. A universal feature of this communication is that t...
Ligands internalized through coated or noncoated invaginations follow a common intracellular pathway.
Cholera toxin (CT) represents a class of ligands that binds preferentially to noncoated pits on the cell surface. In the present study, we have investigated the mechanism of end...
The structure of interfaces between subunits of dimeric and tetrameric proteins
The structures of the interfaces of nine dimeric and nine tetrameric proteins have been analyzed and have been seen to follow general principles. These interfaces are combinatio...
