Understanding the Molecular Mechanisms that Contribute to Parkinson’s Disease: Defining the Role of Ca2+ in TG2: α-synuclein Macromolecular Complex Assembly
(East Carolina University, 2018-12-10)
Transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is an allosteric enzyme ubiquitously expressed in human tissue. This versatile enzyme has both Ca2+ -dependent, transamidase and GTPase activities. TG2's Ca2+ -dependent transamidase activity is ...
DISCRIMINATING BETWEEN CARDIOLIPIN CONCENTRATION AND ACYL CHAIN COMPOSITION ON MEMBRANE BIOPHYSICAL ORGANIZATION
(East Carolina University, 2018-11-28)
The pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is driven, in part, from impairment in myocardial energy metabolism. There is convincing evidence that myocardial metabolic abnormalities are fundamentally driven by ...
