Feminizing chicks: a model for avian sex determination based on titration of Hint enzyme activity and the predicted structure of an Asw-Hint heterodimerHelen C Pace
Structural Biology and Bioinformatics Program, Kimmel Cancer Center, Philadelphia, PA 19107, USA
Genome Biol 4:R18. 2003..Genomic and expression data suggest that Asw may feminize chicks, dominantly interfering with Hint function by heterodimerization...

Structural Biology and Bioinformatics Program, Kimmel Cancer Center, Philadelphia, PA 19107, USA
Curr Opin Struct Biol 12:775-82. 2002..Recent experimental results confirm the essentiality of the catalytic triad residues and specify the biochemical functions of additional branches and sub-branches of the nitrilase superfamily...
Designed FHIT alleles establish that Fhit-induced apoptosis in cancer cells is limited by substrate bindingFrancesco Trapasso
Genetics and Molecular Biology Program, Kimmel Cancer Center, Philadelphia, PA 19107, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 100:1592-7. 2003..These data indicate that the proapoptotic function of Fhit is limited by substrate binding and is unrelated to substrate hydrolysis...
Adenosine monophosphoramidase activity of Hint and Hnt1 supports function of Kin28, Ccl1, and Tfb3Pawel Bieganowski
Structural Biology and Bioinformatics Program, Kimmel Cancer Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107, USA
J Biol Chem 277:10852-60. 2002..Functional complementation of all Hnt1 phenotypes was provided by rabbit Hint, which is only 22% identical to yeast Hnt1 but has very similar adenosine monophosphoramidase activity...

J Biol Chem 279:18711-6. 2004..Ser-107 is positioned to donate a hydrogen bond to the leaving group nitrogen. Consistent with a role in acid-base catalysis, the Hint S107A mutant protein displayed depressed catalytic activity...
The reported human NADsyn2 is ammonia-dependent NAD synthetase from a pseudomonadPawel Bieganowski
Structural Biology and Bioinformatics Program, Kimmel Cancer Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107, USA
J Biol Chem 278:33056-9. 2003..Here we establish that the so-called NADsyn2 is simply ammonia-dependent NAD+ synthetase from Pseudomonas, which is encoded on an operon with nicotinic acid phosphoribosyltransferase and, in some Pseudomonads, with nicotinamidase...
Nonvisual arrestin oligomerization and cellular localization are regulated by inositol hexakisphosphate bindingShawn K Milano
Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107, USA
J Biol Chem 281:9812-23. 2006..Thus, by promoting cytosolic oligomerization, IP(6) binding is proposed to be a negative regulator of interactions of arrestin with plasma membrane and nuclear signaling proteins...
