Actins are a highly conserved family of proteins found in virtually all eukaryotic cells. They
have prolific roles in cell motility-from the contraction of striated muscle to the movement of …

Actin is a protein that plays an important role in cell structure, cell motility, and the generation
of contractile force in both muscle and nonmuscle cells. In many organisms, multiple forms of …

CD4 T cells potentiate the inflammatory or humoral immune response through the action of
Th1 and Th2 cells, respectively. The molecular basis of the differentiation of these cells from …

Previously we described joining of DNA in the 9 T cell receptor gene to DNA of an
uncharacterized locus in at (7; 9)(q34; q34. 3) chromosomal translocation from a case of …

A cDNA encoding the cell-cell adhesion molecule E-cadherin was transfected tnto highly
invasive epithelial tumor cell lines of dog kidney or mouse mammary gland origin …

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura is associated with acquired or congenital deficiency
of a plasma von Willebrand factor-cleaving protease (VWFCP). Based on partial amino acid …

Transcription of the c-fos proto-oncogene is greatly increased within minutes of
administering purified growth factors to quiescent 3T3 cells. This stimulation is the most …

We have examined the mechanism of thalidomide inhibition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-
induced tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) production and found that the drug …

The murine oct-3 gene encodes a transcription factor containing a POU-specific domain and
a homeodomain. In marked contrast to other homeodomain-encoding genes, oct-3 is …

The development and progression of thyroid tumors is signaled by phenotype-specific
mutations of genes involved in growth control. Molecular events associated with …
