BACE2 functions as an alternative alpha-secretase in cellsR Yan
Department of Cell and Molecular Biology, Pharmacia Corporation, Kalamazoo, Michigan 49007, USA
J Biol Chem 276:34019-27. 2001..Thus, BACE2 can be distinguished from BACE1 on the basis of autoprocessing of the prosegment, APP processing specificity, and subcellular localization patterns...
The transmembrane domain of the Alzheimer's beta-secretase (BACE1) determines its late Golgi localization and access to beta -amyloid precursor protein (APP) substrateR Yan
Department of Cell and Molecular Biology, Pharmacia Corporation, Kalamazoo, Michigan 49007, USA
J Biol Chem 276:36788-96. 2001..The results suggest a molecular and cell biological mechanism for the regulation of beta-secretase activity in vivo...
Membrane-anchored aspartyl protease with Alzheimer's disease beta-secretase activityR Yan
Cell and Molecular Biology, Pharmacia and Upjohn, Inc, Kalamazoo, MI 49007, USA
Nature 402:533-7. 1999..Thus, Asp2 is a new protein target for drugs that are designed to block the production of amyloid beta-peptide peptide and the consequent formation of amyloid plaque in Alzheimer's disease...
The genomic structure of the STAT genes: multiple exons in coincident sites in Stat1 and Stat2R Yan
Laboratory of Molecular Cell Biology, Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10021
Nucleic Acids Res 23:459-63. 1995..There are 24 exons in the Stat2 gene and a matching number in very similar positions in the Stat1 gene. Thus a very complicated genomic structure was presumably duplicated and has been closely maintained throughout evolution...
Mapping the cleavage site in protein synthesis initiation factor eIF-4 gamma of the 2A proteases from human Coxsackievirus and rhinovirusB J Lamphear
Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Louisiana State University Medical Center, Shreveport 71130 3932
J Biol Chem 268:19200-3. 1993..The cleavage site for both proteases is 479GRPALSSR decreases GPPRGGPG494 in rabbit eIF-4 gamma, corresponding to 478GRTTLSTR decreases GPPRGGPG493 in human eIF-4 gamma...
Identification of a Stat gene that functions in Drosophila developmentR Yan
Laboratory of Molecular Cell Biology, Rockefeller University, New York, New York 10021, USA
Cell 84:421-30. 1996..Mutations in either of the STAT-binding sites greatly decreased the stripe 3 expression in transgenic flies. Clearly, the JAK-STAT pathway is connected to Drosophila early development...
Stable gene silencing of cyclin B1 in tumor cells increases susceptibility to taxol and leads to growth arrest in vivoJ Yuan
Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, School of Medicine, JW Goethe University, 60590 Frankfurt, Germany
Oncogene 25:1753-62. 2006....
Reticulon proteins: emerging players in neurodegenerative diseasesR Yan
Department of Neurosciences, Lerner Research Institute, The Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Ohio, 44195, USA
Cell Mol Life Sci 63:877-89. 2006..In this review, we summarize the accumulated findings concerning the structural and functional aspects of RTNs and speculate on their linkage to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases...
