CAVIN-3 regulates circadian period length and PER:CRY protein abundance and interactions.

n mammals, transcriptional autorepression by Period (PER) and cryptochrome (CRY) protein complex is essential for the generation of circadian rhythms. We have identified Cavin-3, PER2-new cytoplasmic proteins interact affecting the properties of the circadian clock. Thus, Cavin-3 loss- and gain-of-function shortened and extended, respectively, in the circadian period of fibroblasts and exposed PER: CRY protein abundance and interactions. 

While the depletion of protein kinase Cδ (PKCδ), the pair are known Equine Recombinant Proteins from Cavin-3, have little effect on circadian gene expression, Cavin-3 PKCδ binding sites required to exert its effect on the length of the period. This suggests the involvement of yet uncharacterized protein kinase. Finally, Cavin-3 activity in circadian gene expression is independent of caveolae.

Dieckol, a phlorotannin isolated from brown seaweed, Ecklonia cava, inhibits adipogenesis through AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes.


In this study, we assessed the potential inhibitory effect of 5 species of brown seaweed on adipogenesis differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes into mature adipocytes by measuring Oil-Red O staining. Ecklonia cava extract tested here proved deep adipogenesis inhibitory effect compared to that shown by the four other brown seaweed extract.

 Thus, E. cava selected for isolation of the active compound and finally three of phlorotannins derived polyphenolic compounds and inhibitory effect on adipogenesis observed. Among phlorotannins, dieckol exhibited the greatest potential inhibition of adipogenesis and down-regulated the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR?), CCAAT / enhancer binding protein (C / EBPα), sterol regulatory element-binding Fruit fly Recombinant Proteins protein 1 (SREBP1) and acid fat binding protein 4 (FABP4) with a dose-dependent manner.

 Specific mechanisms mediating the effects dieckol confirmed by AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation. These results demonstrate the inhibitory effect of compounds on adipogenesis dieckol through activation of AMPK signaling pathway.

Phasin proteins activate Aeromonas caviae polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase but not Ralstonia eutropha PHA synthase.

In this study, we performed in vitro and in vivo activity assays of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) synthase (PhaCs) in the presence of protein phasin (PhaPs), which revealed that PhaPs are activators of PHAC derived from Aeromonas caviae (PhaCAc). In an in vitro study, among the three PhaCs tested, PhaCAc significantly activated when PhaPs added at the beginning of polymerization (prepolymerization PhaCAc), while prepolymerization PhaCRe (derived from Cupriavidus necator) and PhaCDa (Delftia acidovorans) showed decreased activity with PhaPs.  The PhaCAc Phap-enabled show a slight shift in substrate preference towards 3-hydroxyhexanoyl-CoA (C6). PhaPAc also enabled PhaCAc when added during the polymerization (polymer-elongating PhaCAc), while this effect was not observed for PhaCRe.   In an in vivo test using Escherichia coli strain C aprine Recombinant Proteins  TOP10 as the host, the effect of PhaPAc expression on PHA synthesis by PhaCAc or PhaCRe examined. As PhaPAc expres...

Identification of intracellular cavin target proteins reveals cavin-PP1alpha interactions regulate apoptosis.

Caveolae is specialized domains of the plasma membrane. Invaginations formation is dependent on the expression of Caveolin-1 or -3 and protein from the family Cavin. In response to stress, caveolae dismantle and cavins released from caveolae, allowing cavins potentially interact with intracellular targets.  Here, we describe the intracellular (non-plasma membrane) Purified Recombinant Protein s  Cavin interactome using biotin affinity proteomics and mass spectrometry. We validate 47-interactor protein Cavin potential using cell-free expression system and the proteins that bind to the test. These data, together with analysis of pathways, revealing unknown role for the protein Cavin in metabolism and stress signals.  We validated the interaction between a candidate interactor protein, protein phosphatase 1 alpha (PP1α), and Cavin-1 and -3 and showed that UV treatment causes release of caveolae Cavin3 enable interaction with and inhibition, PP1α.
