The Exotoxin of P. aeruginosa: A Proenzyme Having an Unusual Mode of Activation (2006)
Leppla, Stephen H., Muehl, Laura A., Martin, Ona C.
The exotoxin of Pseudomonas aerguinosa is a proenzyme possessing latent ADPR-transferase activity. Conversion to the active form can be effected by simultaneous treatment with a protein denaturant...
Characterization of a New γTuRC Subunit with WD Repeats
Gunawardane, Ruwanthi N., Martin, Ona C., Zheng, Yixian
The γ-tubulin ring complex (γTuRC), consisting of multiple protein subunits, can nucleate microtubule assembly. Although many subunits of the γTuRC have been identified, a complete set remains to...

Martin, Ona C., Gunawardane, Ruwanthi N., Iwamatsu, Akihiro, Zheng, Yixian
Previous studies indicate that γ tubulin ring complex (γTuRC) can nucleate microtubule assembly and may be important in centrosome formation. γTuRC contains approximately eight subunits, which we...
Oegema, Karen, Wiese, Christiane, Martin, Ona C., Milligan, Ronald A., Iwamatsu, Akihiro, Mitchison, Timothy J., ...
γ-tubulin exists in two related complexes in Drosophila embryo extracts (Moritz, M., Y. Zheng, B.M. Alberts, and K. Oegema. 1998. J. Cell Biol. 142:1– 12). Here, we report the purification and...
Characterization and Reconstitution of Drosophila γ-Tubulin Ring Complex Subunits
Gunawardane, Ruwanthi N., Martin, Ona C., Cao, Kan, Zhang, Lijun, Dej, Kimberly, Iwamatsu, Akihiro, ...
The γ-tubulin ring complex (γTuRC) is important for microtubule nucleation from the centrosome. In addition to γ-tubulin, the Drosophila γTuRC contains at least six subunits, three of which...
