Abstract Inositol 1, 4, 5-trisphosphate is a second messenger which regulates intracellular
calcium both by mobilizing calcium from internal stores and, perhaps indirectly, by …

Our knowledge of the structure and function of alkaline phosphatases has increased greatly
in recent years. The crystal structure of the human placental isozyme has enabled us to …

We show that a protein with a glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI) anchor can be recovered
from lysates of epithelial cells in a low density, detergent-insoluble form. Under these …

Traditional methods of studying neural coding characterize the en (cid: 173) coding of
known stimuli in average neural responses. Organisms face nearly the opposite task …

A cDNA library prepared from the mouse osteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1 was screened for
the presence of specifically expressed genes by employing a combined subtraction …

Positioned at the C-terminus of many eukaryotic proteins, the glycosylphosphatidylinositol
(GPI) anchor is a posttranslational modification that anchors the modified protein in the outer …

The multifunctional position supplied by myo-inositol is emerging as a central feature in
plant biochemistry and physiology. In this critique, attention is drawn to metabolic aspects …

A review of the human alkaline phosphatases dealing specifically with (1) the gene loci,(2)
characterization and discrimination of the various enzymes,(3) polymorphism at the enzyme …

Aim: To determine whether fluid flow-induced shear stress affects the differentiation of bone
marrow-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) into osteogenic cells. Materials & …

THIS year marks the 70th anniversary of the discovery of alkaline phosphatase (ALP)(1). For
the greater part of the past seven decades there has been universal appreciation by …
