ATP-dependent peptide release from mitochondria of reticulocytes.

abstract：:Locus control regions (LCRs) are cis-acting elements that confer position-independent and copy-number-dependent expression upon associated genes in transgenic mice. Here we show the second example of the use of an LCR (the rat LAP LCR) in a stable expression vector system, used here in conjunction with the rat liver (...

Inhibition of protein synthesis did not affect ET-1-induced HIF1α expression. The maximum effect of ET-1 was similar to that caused by proteasome inhibitor MG132. Further study indicates that ET-1 also dos...
