Filamin repeat segments required for photosensory signalling in Dictyostelium discoideum (2007)

Annesley, Sarah J, Bandala-Sanchez, Esther, Ahmed, Afsar U, Fisher, Paul R

Abstract Background Filamin is an actin binding protein which is ubiquitous in eukaryotes and its basic structure is well conserved – an N-terminal actin binding domain followed by a series of...

Import-Associated Translational Inhibition: Novel In Vivo Evidence for Cotranslational Protein Import into Dictyostelium discoideum Mitochondria

Ahmed, Afsar U., Beech, Peter L., Lay, Sui T., Gilson, Paul R., Fisher, Paul R.

To investigate protein import into the mitochondria of Dictyostelium discoideum, green fluorescent protein (GFP) was fused as a reporter protein either to variable lengths of the N-terminal region of...

Diverse Cytopathologies in Mitochondrial Disease Are Caused by AMP-activated Protein Kinase Signaling

Bokko, Paul B., Francione, Lisa, Bandala-Sanchez, Esther, Ahmed, Afsar U., Annesley, Sarah J., Huang, Xiuli, ...

The complex cytopathology of mitochondrial diseases is usually attributed to insufficient ATP. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a highly sensitive cellular energy sensor that is stimulated by...
