    ..Further, we show that depletion of NEDD1 inhibits centriole duplication, as does depletion of gamma-tubulin. Our data suggest that centriole duplication requires NEDD1-dependent recruitment of gamma-tubulin to the centrosome...
  54. ncbi Munc13-4 is essential for cytolytic granules fusion and is mutated in a form of familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (FHL3)

    Cell 115:461-73. 2003
    ..Expressed tagged hMunc13-4 localizes with cytotoxic granules at the immunological synapse. HMunc13-4 is therefore essential for the priming step of cytolytic granules secretion preceding vesicle membrane fusion...
  55. ncbi ACCA phosphopeptide recognition by the BRCT repeats of BRCA1

    J Mol Biol 359:973-82. 2006
    ..We finally demonstrated by immunoprecipitation of ACCA in cells, that the whole BRCA1 protein interacts with ACCA when phosphorylated on Ser1263...
  56. ncbi A new rubisco-like protein coexists with a photosynthetic rubisco in the planktonic cyanobacteria Microcystis

    J Biol Chem 281:24462-71. 2006
    ..The discovery of the coexistence of RbcL(I) and RbcL(IV) in cyanobacteria, the ancestors of chloroplasts, enlightens episodes of the chaotic evolutionary history of the Rubiscos, a protein family of major importance for life on Earth...
  57. ncbi The V(D)J recombination/DNA repair factor artemis belongs to the metallo-beta-lactamase family and constitutes a critical developmental checkpoint of the lymphoid system

    ..Two of these patients developed aggressive B cell lymphomas, a condition that suggests Artemis may be considered a "caretaker" factor, similarly to the other V(D)J recombination/DNA repair actors...
  58. ncbi Bromodomain testis-specific protein is expressed in mouse oocyte and evolves faster than its ubiquitously expressed paralogs BRD2, -3, and -4
