GTP-stimulated phosphorylation of P-glycoprotein in transporting vesicles from KB-V1 multidrug resistant cells.

abstract：:Transcarboxylase (TC) is a multisubunit enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a carboxylate group from methylmalonyl-CoA (MMCoA) to pyruvate. The CO2- group is shuttled between the MMCoA and pyruvate binding sites by a biotin cofactor, covalently linked to the 1.3S subunit. Fully carboxylated 1.3S can be prepared in v...

abstract：:Gene targeting by triplex-forming oligonucleotides (TFOs) has proven useful for gene modulation in vivo. Photoreactive molecules have been conjugated to TFOs to direct sequence-specific damage in double-stranded DNA. However, the photoproducts are often repaired efficiently in cells. This limitation has led to the sea...
