Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
15158756 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
18000807 increase in the in vitro ACAT1 activity in PC-3 prostate cancer cells treated with androgen
17236799 E252del is a temperature-sensitive K(m) mutant.
17691824 Several residues in one subunit closely interact with the same residues in the other subunit; mutating these res. to Cys does not lead to loss in enzyme activity. Mutating residues F453, A457, or H460 to Cys causes large loss in enzyme activity.
15128923 "mild" mutations (A132G, D339-V340insD) retained some residual T2 activity
16935016 Cloning and sequencing long range PCR products revealed a 6.4kb deletion. Alu element-mediated unequal homologous recombination between an Alu-Sx in intron 1 and another Alu-Y in intron 4 appears to be responsible for this deletion.
12754704 Single base substitutions at the initiator codon produced wild-type T2 polypeptide to various degrees
17371050 Crystallographic and kinetic studies were made on mitochondrial acetyl-CoA thiolase: the importance of potassium and chloride ions were noted for its structure and function.
