Molecular cloning and expression of a guinea pig 3-hydroxysteroid sulfotransferase distinct from chiral-specific 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid sulfotransferase.

abstract：:In hematopoietic cells, Ras has been implicated in signaling pathways that prevent apoptosis triggered by deprivation of cytokines, such as interleukin-3 (IL-3). However, the mechanism whereby Ras suppresses cell death remains incompletely understood. We have investigated the role of Ras in IL-3 signal transduction by...
