Binding of common organic UV-filters to the thyroid hormone transport protein transthyretin using in vitro and in silico studies: Potential implications in health.
(Environmental Research 2023, 217, 114836, 2023-01-15)Several anthropogenic contaminants have been identified as competing with the thyroid hormone thyroxine (T4) for binding to transport proteins as transthyretin (TTR). This binding can potentially create ... -
Different mechanisms that promote protein monoubiquitination
(Afinidad. Vol.72, n.570 (2015), p.95-100, 2015-04)Protein monoubiquitination is a post-translational modification that consists of the conjugation of a single ubiquitin molecule to a target protein residue. Monoubiquitination regulates protein activity ... -
Evaluating the alterations of the estrogen-responsive genes in Cyprinodon variegatus larvae for biomonitoring the impacts of estrogenic endocrine disruptors (EEDs)
(Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology 2023, 97, 104042, 2023-01)Currently, endocrine disruptors (EDs) can be found in all the environmental compartments. To understand the effects of estrogenic EDs (EEDs), adults of Cyprinodon variegatus have been classically used ... -
Preparative scale production of recombinant human transthyretin for biophysical studies of protein-ligand and protein-protein interactions
(International Journal of Molecular Sciences. Vol.21, n.24 (2020), 9640, 2020-12)Human transthyretin (hTTR), a serum protein with a main role in transporting thyroid hormones and retinol through binding to the retinol-binding protein, is an amyloidogenic protein involved in familial ... -
