  2. 1. Studies on the structure, function and expression of phospholipase A2

    Author : Pontus Larsson Forsell; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes are widely distributed and the enzymes possess different functions such as a role in digestion and inflammation. PLA2 catalyzes the hydrolysis of the sn-2 acylester bond of phospholipids, yielding a free fatty acid and a lysophospholipid. READ MORE

  6. 4. RhoGTPase Signaling in Cell Polarity and Gene Regulation

    Author : Ann-Sofi Johansson; Pontus Aspenström; Johan Lennartsson; Christer Larsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; RhoGTPase; Par6; cell polarity; aPKC; epithelial cell; PDGF; gene regulation; microarray; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : RhoGTPases are proteins working as molecular switches as they bind and hydrolyze GTP. They are in their active conformation when GTP is bound and are then able to interact with their effector proteins, which relay the downstream signaling. When the GTP is hydrolyzed to GDP, the RhoGTPase is inactivated. READ MORE
