The nucleocapsid protein of SARS coronavirus has a high binding affinity to the human cellular heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1.

abstract：:Stimulation of mast cells through their high affinity IgE receptor (FcεRI) leads to the secretion of pre- and neoformed soluble mediators through vesicular carriers. This process is highly regulated in order to adapt the secretion of these potentially dangerous factors to the physiological needs. This regulation requi...

abstract：:We identified a yeast mutant with temperature-sensitive growth defects that were rescued by VCP expression. The mutation occurred in GPI10, which encodes a mannosyl transferase for glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor formation in the endoplasmic reticulum, and caused a Gly469Glu substitution in Gpi10. The mutant exhib...
