Expression and functional activity of pro-oxidants and antioxidants in murine heart exposed to acute hypobaric hypoxia.

abstract：:The chloroplast inner envelope translocon subunit Tic110 is imported via a soluble stromal translocation intermediate. In this study an in-organellar import system is established which allows for an accumulation of this intermediate in order to analyze its requirements for reexport. All results demonstrate that the re...

abstract：:Several mRNAs are known to be targeted to dendrites in hippocampal neurons. In this study, we show that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA has two distinct cis-acting dendritic targeting elements in the short 3' untranslated region (UTR): a constitutive element and an activity-dependent one. Moreover, delet...
