Recombinant human uncoupling protein-3 increases thermogenesis in yeast cells.

abstract：:The effect of estramustine and estramustine phosphate (EP) on the interaction of microtubule associated protein 2 (MAP2) with actin has been examined. We show that (a) neither estramustine nor EP influences actin polymerisation (b) EP, but not estramustine, reduces the amount of MAP2 which co-sediments with F-actin in...
