Cancer-predisposing mutations within the RING domain of BRCA1: loss of ubiquitin protein ligase activity and protection from radiation hypersensitivity.

abstract：:Excitation-evoked Ca(2+) influx is the fastest and most ubiquitous chemical trigger for cellular processes, including neurotransmitter release, muscle contraction, and gene expression. The voltage dependence and timing of Ca(2+) entry are thought to be functions of voltage-gated calcium (CaV) channels composed of a ce...

We show that precursor mRNAs are spliced efficiently only when they possess a cap structure and that preincubation of a HeLa nuclear extract rendered the splicing reaction highly sensitive to inhibitio...
