Spatial information embedded in the extracellular matrix establishes the dorsoventral polarity of the Drosophila embryo through the ventral activity of a serine protease cascade. Pipe is a Golgi-localized protein responsible for generating this spatial information during oogenesis through sulfation
Drosophila embryonic dorsal-ventral (DV) polarity is controlled by a group of sequentially acting serine proteases located in the fluid-filled perivitelline space between the embryonic membrane and the eggshell, which generate the ligand for the Toll receptor on the ventral side of the embryo.
During Drosophila embryogenesis, establishment of ventral and lateral cell fates requires spatial regulation of an extracellular serine protease cascade composed of Nudel, Gastrulation Defective (GD), Snake, and Easter. Pipe, a sulfotransferase expressed ventrally during oogenesis, sulfates secreted
The establishment of Drosophila embryonic dorsal-ventral (DV) polarity relies on serine proteolytic activity in the perivitelline space between the embryonic membrane and the eggshell. Gastrulation Defective cleaves and activates Snake, which processes and activates Easter, which cleaves Spätzle to
Drosophila embryo dorsoventral polarity is established by a maternally encoded signal transduction pathway in which three sequentially acting serine proteases, Gastrulation Defective, Snake and Easter, generate the ligand that activates the Toll receptor on the ventral side of the embryo. The
Drosophila embryo dorsoventral (DV) polarity is defined by serine protease activity in the perivitelline space (PVS) between the embryonic membrane and the inner layer of the eggshell. Gastrulation Defective (GD) cleaves and activates Snake (Snk). Activated Snk cleaves and activates Easter (Ea),
Dorsoventral patterning of the Drosophila embryo is initiated by a ventralizing signal. Production of this signal requires the serine proteases Gastrulation Defective (GD), Snake, and Easter, which genetic studies suggest act sequentially in a cascade that is activated locally in response to a
The dorsoventral axis of the Drosophila embryo is induced by a ventrally restricted ligand for the receptor Toll. The Toll ligand is generated by a proteolytic processing reaction, which occurs at the end of a proteolytic cascade and requires the gastrulation defective (gd), nudel, pipe, and
gastrulation defective (gd) encodes a serine protease required for specification of dorsal-ventral cell fates during Drosophila embryogenesis. Using RNA microinjection, I show that wild-type gd RNA can restore ventrolateral pattern elements with correct polarity with respect to egg shape in embryos
Three serine protease zymogens, Gastrulation defective (GD), Snake (Snk) and Easter (Ea), and a nerve growth factor-like growth factor ligand precursor, Spaetzle, are required for specification of dorsal- ventral cell fate during Drosophila embryogenesis. The proteases have been proposed to function
Drosophila embryonic dorsal-ventral polarity is defined by a maternally encoded signal transduction pathway. Gastrulation Defective, Snake, and Easter comprise a serine protease cascade that operates in the perivitelline space to generate active ligand for the Toll receptor, which resides in the
In the year 2003, the basis of antiretroviral treatment comprising nucleoside and nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI, NNRTI, NtRTI) and protease inhibitors (PI) will be extended to include entry inhibitors (EI). A representative of this class of drugs, enfurvitide (T20), is about to
The focus of this work was to investigate an enzymatic liquefaction of MSW organics, paper and cardboard. Liquefaction trials were conducted in different trial volumes: 50 g lab-scale trials and 5 0kg vessel-tests and evaluated based on particle size and viscosity. The viscosity results showed that
Buffering extracellular pH at the site of a spinal cord crush-injury may stimulate axonal regeneration in rats (1; Guth et al., Exp. Neurol. 88: 44-55, 1985). We demonstrated in cultured astrocytes that acidic pH initiates a rapid increase in immunoreactivity for GFAP (GFAP-IR), a hallmark of
The in vitro binding properties of 1-(cyclopropylmethyl)-4-(2'-(4''-fluorophenyl)-2'-oxoethyl)pipe ridi ne HBr, [3H]DuP 734, a novel sigma receptor ligand, were examined in homogenates of guinea pig brain. Specific [3H]DuP 734 binding (10 microM haloperidol-displaceable) in cerebellum was dependent
