The extracellular matrix is a component of physiological microenvironment and a regulator of cellular processes such as migration and proliferation. Secreted Protein Acidic and Rich in Cysteine (SPARC/osteonectin) is an extracellular matrix-associated glycoprotein involved in the regulation of cell...

Albendazole induces oxidative stress and DNA damage in the parasitic protozoan Giardia duodenalis.

Frontiers in microbiology

Martínez-Espinosa R, Argüello-García R, Saavedra E, Ortega-Pierres G.

Front Microbiol. 2015 Aug 06;6:800. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2015.00800. eCollection 2015.

The control of Giardia duodenalis infections is carried out mainly by drugs, among these albendazole (ABZ) is commonly used. Although the cytotoxic effect of ABZ usually involves binding to β-tubulin, it has been suggested that oxidative stress may also...

Mapping of the local environmental changes in proteins by cysteine scanning.

Biophysics (Nagoya-shi, Japan)

Yamazaki Y, Nagata T, Terakita A, Kandori H, Shichida Y, Imamoto Y.
PMID: 27493492
Biophysics (Nagoya-shi). 2014 Jan 16;10:1-7. doi: 10.2142/biophysics.10.1. eCollection 2014.

Protein conformational changes, which regulate the activity of proteins, are induced by the alternation of intramolecular interactions. Therefore, the detection of the local environmental changes around the key amino acid residues is essential to understand the activation mechanisms of...
