• The 14-3-3 proteins in regulation of cellular metabolism 

      Kleppe, Rune; Martinez, Aurora; Døskeland, Stein Ove; Haavik, Jan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-09)
      Thirty years ago, it was discovered that 14-3-3 proteins could activate enzymes involved in amino acid metabolism. In the following decades, 14-3-3s have been shown to be involved in many different signaling pathways that ...
    • Electrical synapses between AII amacrine cells in the retina: Function and modulation 

      Hartveit, Espen; Veruki, Margaret Lin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012)
      Adaptation enables the visual system to operate across a large range of background light intensities. There is evidence that one component of this adaptation is mediated by modulation of gap junctions functioning as ...
    • Image-based assessment of microvascular function and structure in collagen XV- and XVIII-deficient mice 

      Brekke, Cecilie; Løkka, Guro; Heljäsvaara, Ritva; Taxt, Torfinn; Pavlin, Tina; Sormunen, Raija T.; Pihlajaniemi, Taina; Curry, Fitz-Roy E.; Tenstad, Olav; Reed, Rolf K. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-01)
      Collagen XV and XVIII are ubiquitous constituents of basement membranes. We aimed to study the physiological roles of these two components of the permeability barrier non-invasively in striated muscle in mice deficient in ...
    • Post-translational modifications of integrin ligands as pathogenic mechanisms in disease 

      Zeltz, Cedric; Gullberg, Donald (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-11)
      Protein post-translational modifications like glycation, carbamylation and citrullination increase the functional diversity of the proteome but in disease situations might do more harm than good. Post-translational ...
