Interaction of clavulanate with class C beta-lactamases.

abstract：:Oxidative stress and an increase in the levels of free radicals are important markers associated with several pathologies, including Alzheimer's disease, cancer and diabetes. Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) is an excellent paradigmatic example of a disease in which oxidative stress plays an important, albeit incompletely u...

abstract：:Bcl-xL, a close homolog of Bcl2, is an important regulator of apoptosis and is overexpressed in human cancer. Phosphorylation of Bcl-xL can be induced by microtubule-damaging drugs such as taxol or 2-methoxyestradiol (2-ME). By site-directed mutagenesis studies, we have identified that serine 62 is the necessary site ...
