abstract：:We have obtained two new mAbs to the carboxy-terminal region of fibronectin, namely P3D4 and P1F11, and have studied their binding sites and their ability to block lymphocyte adhesion to fibronectin. ELISA and Western blot analyses showed that P3D4 reacts with both fibronectin chains and both Hep II-containing fragmen...

abstract：:The stability of mRNA influences the dynamics of gene expression. The CCR4-NOT complex, the major deadenylase in mammalian cells, shortens the mRNA poly(A) tail and contributes to the destabilization of mRNAs. The CCR4-NOT complex plays pivotal roles in various physiological functions, including cell proliferation, ap...
