Section of Cell and Developmental Biology, Division of Biological Sciences, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093, USA
Traffic 5:798-813. 2004..Instead, our data suggest that myosin-VI recruitment to clathrin-coated pits may be an early step in the recruitment of GIPC to the vesicle surface...

University of California at San Diego, Division of Biological Sciences, Section of Cell and Developmental Biology, 2129 Bonner Hall, MC 0368, 9500 Gilman Drive, La Jolla, CA 92093 0368, USA
Mol Cell Biol 25:4501-13. 2005..Oxidative stress inactivates Keap1's NES, allowing entry of both Keap1 and Nrf2 into the nucleus and transcriptional transactivation of ARE genes...

Section of Cell and Developmental Biology, Division of Biological Sciences, University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093 0368, USA
Cell Motil Cytoskeleton 56:109-19. 2003..As Keap1 homologues are actin-bundling proteins, we hypothesize that Keap1's function is to bundle F-actin within these diverse types of cell adhesion components...
