In 2006, TRDMT1 enzyme was shown to methylate position 38 in aspartic acid transfer RNA and does not methylate DNA. To reflect this different function, the name for this methyltransferase was changed from DNMT2 to TRDMT1 (tRNA aspartic acid methyltransferase 1) to better reflect its biological function. TRDMT1 is the first RNA cytosine methyltransferase to be identified in a human.

Supplier: Enzo Life Sciences

UDP-glucose:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase (UGGT) is a 170 kDa lumenal endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident protein that catalyzes monoglucosylation of high mannose oligosaccharides. UGGT catalyzes the transfer of glucose from UDP-glucose to Man7-9GlcNAc2-moiety of unfolded glycoproteins in a Ca2+ dependent reaction. UGGT binds unfolded glycoprotein via an N-acetylglucosamine unit on the oligosaccharide, and hydrophobic amino acids that are exposed in the denatured conformation.

This protein belongs to the serine protease family. The encoded protein contains a serine protease domain, a transmembrane domain, an LDL receptor-like domain, and a scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain. Serine proteases are known to be involved in a variety of biological processes, whose malfunction often leads to human diseases and disorders. This protein was identified by its association with both congenital and childhood onset autosomal recessive deafness. This protein is expressed in fetal cochlea and many other tissues, and is thought to be involved in the development and maintenance of the inner ear or the contents of the perilymph and endolymph. This protein was also identified as a tumor-associated gene that is overexpressed in ovarian tumors. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.

Anti-GRP78 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier: Enzo Life Sciences

The Hsp90 family of heat shock proteins represents one of the most abundantly expressed and highly conserved families of cellular chaperones whose expression can be upregulated under conditions of cellular stress, and includes cytoplasmic (Hsp90-alpha/beta), ER (grp94), and mitochondrial (TRAP1) localized members. Structurally, Hsp90 is characterized by an N-terminal ATP-binding domain, a medial substrate-binding domain, and a C-terminal dimerization motif. Hsp90 dimers function in cooperation with cochaperones (e.g. Hsp40, Hsp70, Hop, p23) to stabilize a multitude of client protein substrates, including steroid hormone receptors, protein kinases, and transcription factors. The essential binding and hydrolysis of ATP by Hsp90 is inhibited by ansamycin drugs (e.g. geldanamycin, 17-AAG) which occupy the N-terminal Hsp90 nucleotide-binding pocket. Many Hsp90 client proteins such as erbB2/Her-2, c-raf, bcr-abl, p53, and hTERT, are members of well characterized oncogenic pathways, making Hsp90 inhibitors useful anticancer agents.

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is a nonapeptide hormone produced in magnocellular neurons of the hypothalamus, which functions as an antidiuretic in the kidney and systemically as a regulator of vasoconstriction, blood volume, and blood pressure. AVP acts by binding to a set of specific seven transmembrane domain-containing G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) classified into three groups: V1a (V1), V1b (V3), and V2. V1b receptors stimulate adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) release in the anterior pituitary, but may also participate in corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) release by the hypothalamus. The V1b receptor signals through coupling of Gq/11 alpha subunits, activating phospholipase C and release of intracellular Ca2+ via phosphoinositide second messengers. V1b receptor overexpression is a common marker for ACTH-secreting corticotropic adenomas. V2 receptors in the collecting ducts of the kidneys stimulate adenylyl cyclase activity, regulating the reabsorption of water via aquaporin channels.

Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is a monoamine found in the central nervous system, gastrointestinal tract, and blood with broad physiological functions as a neurotransmitter, in gastric motility, hemostasis, and cardiovascular integrity. Seven subclasses (5-HT 1-7) of serotonin receptors have been identified, a majority of which are members of the seven transmembrane domain-containing G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) family, and are the target of several anti-depressant drugs. The 5-HT1 subclass consists of five highly homologous receptors that couple via G(i/o) alpha subunits to inhibit adenylyl cyclase activity. The 5-HT1A receptor gene is 99% homologous between human and mouse, and is expressed from an intronless gene with a predicted length of 421 amino acids. 5-HT1A receptor activation is generally inhibitory to cAMP production, but may also stimulate type II adenylyl cyclase activity in a cell-specific manner via release of G(beta/gamma) subunits when coupled to G(i2). 5-HT1A expression in mammals is strongest in CNS limbic pathways that control emotion, including tissue of the hippocampus, dorsal raphé, and septum.

The actions of the octapeptide circulatory hormone angiotensin II are mediated by type one (AT1) and type two (AT2) angiotensin II receptors, members of the seven-transmembrane domain-containing GPCR family. AT1 expression is greatest in vascular smooth muscle, liver, kidney, adrenal cortex, brain, and lung, and is primarily responsible for the physiological effects of angiotensin II in cardiovascular homeostasis. The AT2 receptor displays approximately 30% identity to the AT1 receptor, and is highly expressed during embryonic development. AT2 expression in adult tissue is limited to the adrenal medulla, brain, and reproductive tissues, but is upregulated in injured tissue following myocardial infarction, vascular injury, and wound healing.

The opioid receptors δ, κ, and μ are members of the seven-transmembrane domain-containing receptor family of G-protein coupled receptors. δ- and μ-receptors serve as functional receptors for endogenous enkephalin and β-endorphin peptide ligands, respectively. δ-opioid receptors are highly expressed in the olfactory bulb, neocortex, caudate putamen and nucleus accumbens, with peripheral expression in the gastro-intestinal tract and vas deferens. δ-receptors inhibit neurotransmitter release resulting in a variety of biological effects including analgesia, motor integration, gastro-intestinal motility, olfaction, respiration, and memory. Neural μ-receptor expression is prominent in the caudate putamen, neocortex, thalamus, nucleus accumbens, hippocampus, and amygdala, as well as in peripheral nervous tissues in the gut. Named for its pharmacological mediation of analgesia by morphine, the μ receptor typically functions as a depressant in physiological processes including respiration, cardiovascular function, gastrointestinal motility, and thermoregulation.

Adrenergic receptors mediate the hormone and neurotransmitter functions of adrenaline and noradrenaline. Adrenoreceptors function in peripheral tissues and the central nervous system to regulate numerous vascular, metabolic, and neurological functions, and are the target for many therapeutically relevant drugs including those for the treatment of hypertension, asthma, benign prostatic hypertrophy, and depression. Adrenoreceptors are classified by three types and multiple subclasses (alpha1A,1B,1D; alpha2A,2B,2C; and beta1,2,3) based on pharmacological and molecular characteristics.

The conversion of arachidonic acid to prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) by cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes is the first step in the synthesis of prostanoids. Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is synthesized from PGH2 by the action of PGD synthase, and its actions in vasodilation and platelet activation are mediated via activation of two identified G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs): DP1 and DP2 (formerly CRTH2). Both DP1 and DP2 receptors are coupled to Gs alpha subunits, resulting in increased adenylyl cyclase activity and cAMP production upon agonist binding. DP1 receptor is expressed moderately in the ileum and weakly in the lung, stomach, and uterus of mice, and weakly in the small intestine of humans. In rodents, expression of PGD synthase and the DP1 receptor is seen in the leptomeninges, where it is believed they play a role in the induction of sleep. The DP1 receptor may also oppose DP2-mediated activation of basophils, eosinophils, and Th2 cells.

Endothelins are vasoactive peptides that exist in three forms (ET-1, ET-2, and ET-3), and function in the maintenance of vascular tone via two identified seven transmembrane-spanning domain-containing G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), endothelin A (ETA) and endothelin B (ETB). The human ETA receptor is primarily expressed in vascular smooth muscle cells, including those of the heart (also in myocytes), lung, and brain, and its stimulation generally results in vasoconstriction. Activation of ETA receptors can be stimulated by binding of ET-1 and ET-2, but not ET-3. triggering the release of vasorelaxive factors such as nitric oxide (NO) and prostanoids from endothelial cells. Human ETB receptors are primarily expressed in endothelial cells lining the vessel walls of the lungs, heart, and brain, and in contrast to ETA receptors, stimulation generally results in transient vasodilation. Activation of ETB receptors can be stimulated by binding of all three endothelins, triggering the release of vasorelaxive

The octapeptide circulatory hormone Angiotensin II is a critical regulator of cardiovascular homeostasis formed in blood, with dual function in tissues of the brain, kidney, heart, and vasculature as an autocrine/paracrine growth hormone. The actions of angiotensin II are mediated by type one (AT1) and type two (AT2) angiotensin II receptors, members of the seven-transmembrane Gprotein coupled receptor (GPCR) family. AT1 receptors couple predominantly with Gq/11 alpha subunits, and signal through phospholipases C, D, and A2, inositol phosphates, and calcium channels, as well as a variety of serine/threonine and tyrosine kinases. AT1 expression is greatest in vascular smooth muscle, liver, kidney, adrenal cortex, brain, and lung, and is primarily responsible for the physiological effects of angiotensin II, including regulation of arterial blood pressure, electrolyte and water balance, thirst, hormone secretion, and renal function. The AT2 receptor displays approximately 30% identity to the AT1 receptor, and is highly expressed during embryonic development. AT2 expression in adult tissue is limited to the adrenal medulla, brain, and reproductive tissues, but is upregulated in injured tissue following myocardial infarction, vascular injury, and wound healing. AT2 receptor signaling is not dependent on G-protein coupling or receptor phosphorylation, although coupling to Gia2 and Gia3 alpha subunits occurs in some tissues. AT2 activation can stimulate tyrosine and serine/threonine phosphatases through activation of nitric oxide and cGMP, and appears to counteract the stimulatory effects of AT1 receptor and growth factor receptor signaling.
