• HAMLET forms annular oligomers when deposited with phoshpolipid monolayers 

      Baumann, Anne; Gjerde, Anja Underhaug; Ying, Ming; Svanborg, Catharina; Holmsen, Holm A.; Glomm, Wilhelm; Martinez, Aurora; Halskau, Øyvind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-04)
      Recently, the anticancer activity of human α-lactalbumin made lethal to tumor cells (HAMLET) has been linked to its increased membrane affinity in vitro, at neutral pH, and ability to cause leakage relative to the inactive ...
    • Opplæring medisinsk cellebiologi i en gruppe 

      Ying, Ming (UPED-skrift nr. 1/2005, Working paper, 2005)
      To help students develop strategies for learning how to learn complex information in medical cell biology, a new module based on team working has been suggested in this report. The purpose of working in small groups is to ...
    • The Pah-R261Q mouse reveals oxidative stress associated with amyloid-like hepatic aggregation of mutant phenylalanine hydroxylase 

      Aubi Catevilla, Oscar; Prestegård, Karina Skjervheim; K C, Kunwar Jung; Shi, Tie-Jun; Ying, Ming; Grindheim, Ann Kari; Scherer, Tanja; Ulvik, Arve; McCann, Adrian; Spriet, Endy; Thöny, Beat; Martinez, Aurora (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Phenylketonuria (PKU) is caused by autosomal recessive variants in phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH), leading to systemic accumulation of L-phenylalanine (L-Phe) that may reach neurotoxic levels. A homozygous Pah-R261Q mouse, ...
    • The Peripheral Binding of 14-3-3γ to Membranes Involves Isoform-Specific Histidine Residues 

      Bustad, Helene J.; Skjærven, Lars; Ying, Ming; Halskau, Øyvind; Baumann, Anne; Rodriguez-Larrea, David; Costas, Miguel; Underhaug, Jarl; Sanchez-Ruiz, Jose M.; Martinez, Aurora (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-11-26)
      Mammalian 14-3-3 protein scaffolds include seven conserved isoforms that bind numerous phosphorylated protein partners and regulate many cellular processes. Some 14-3-3-isoforms, notably γ, have elevated affinity for ...
    • Phosphorylation at serine 31 targets tyrosine hydroxylase tovesicles for transport along microtubules 

      Jorge Finnigan, Ana; Kleppe, Rune; K C, Kunwar Jung; Ying, Ming; Marie, Michael Bruno Eric; Rios Mondragon, Ivan; Salvatore, Michael F; Saraste, Jaakko; Martinez, Aurora (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) catalyzes the conversion of L-tyrosine into L-DOPA, which is the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of catecholamines, such as dopamine, in dopaminergergic neurons. Low dopamine levels and death ...
