Effect of phospholipase C hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids on acyltransferase systems in rat liver microsomes.

abstract：:High mobility group box protein 1, HMGB1, is a major nonhistone chromatin component in higher eukaryotic cells. HMGB1 is thought to be involved in the processes of global nuclear events such as transcription, recombination and repair, but the mechanism of these processes is unclear. Here, we show a concrete example of...
