The membrane insertion of colicins.

Abstract:

:Pore-forming toxins, such as colicin A, are water-soluble proteins that insert into lipid bilayers. The water-soluble structure of Colicin A is known at a high resolution and this review describes the kinetic and structural steps involved in its soluble-to-membrane bound transformation.

  • TAK1-mediated transcriptional activation of CD28-responsive element and AP-1-binding site within the IL-2 promoter in Jurkat T cells.

    abstract::We focused on the functional involvement of transforming growth factor-beta-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) in transcriptional regulation of interleukin-2 (IL-2) in T cells. Costimulation of Jurkat cells with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate and A23187 leads to a rapid phosphorylation of TAK1 and TAK1-binding protein 1 ...
