Exploring functional redundancy in the immunoglobulin mu heavy-chain gene enhancer.

abstract：:Phosphoinositides (PIPs) are present in very small amounts but are essential for cell signaling, morphogenesis, and polarity. By mass spectrometry, we demonstrated that some PIPs with stearic acyl chains were strongly disturbed in a psi1Δ Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast strain deficient in the specific incorporation of...

In some systems, such G(2)/M arrest has been shown to reflect the stabilization of inhibitory phosphorylation sites on CDK1. In human cells, full G(2) arrest appears to involve additional mechanisms. We d...
