Crystal Structure of Transport Protein Links Structure to Function
Researchers using advanced x-ray crystallography techniques have produced a high-resolution three-dimensional crystal structure for lactose permease, a member of the Major Facilitator Superfamily (MFS) of transport proteins. More...15 Aug 2003
Tyrosine Kinase Receptor Defect Linked to Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Researchers have found that activated receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) can cooperate with the RUNX1-CBF2T1 (AML1-ETO) fusion oncogene to cause acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in a mouse model of this deadly human cancer. More...13 Aug 2003
Longevity Influenced by Neurotransmitter Gene Variation
Researchers working with a fruit fly model have found that the gene for the enzyme DOPA decarboxylase (DDC), which is required for the production of the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin, has an effect on the longevity of the organism. More...13 Aug 2003
