The recent crystal structure of myosin subfragment-1 suggests the presence of two distinct domains: a catalytic or motor domain, from which extends a long, 8.5-nm alpha-helix that is stabilized by the regulatory and essential light chains.

MEFs were infected with control (pBabe) or E1A-expressing retrovirus (pBabe-E1A), and were treated with adriamycin (0.25 μg/mL) for 24 h. Wild-type (WT) and Noxa-/- MEFs (left), as well as Noxa-/- and Noxa-/-/Bax-/- MEFs (right), were each prepared from the same litter. Results are representative of three independent experiments.

Figure 1b shows a southern blot analysis showing the alteration of the mutant foxp2 allele.

A DNA oligonucleotide substrate was labeled at the 5' and 3' terminus with fluorescence. When labeled at the 5' end, the product had a size of around 4 nucleotides, while the 3' end had products that got progressively smaller until they reached 1-2 nucleotides in length. This shows that the gene is involved in the 5' to 3' exodeoxyribonuclease activity and initiates cleavage at the 5' end.

These methods helped to determine the effect of exogenous Hsp90β on FN matrix formation and morphology in Hs578T cells. Treatment of the Hs578T cell line with exogenous soluble Hsp90β led to an increase in insoluble FN relative to soluble FN, suggesting a role for extracellular Hsp90 in fibril formation. Other methods used include co-immunoprecipitation, solid phase binding assay, immunoblot analysis, SPR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.

This study shows that the over expression of the gene encoding wild-type p53 blocks the growth of osteosarcoma cells. The growth arrest was determined to be due to an inability of the transfected cells to progress to S phase. This suggests that the told of p53 gene as an antioncogene may be in controlling the cell cycle in a fashion analogous to the check point control genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Immunofluorescence and Southern blots were used.
