    Description: We report a flexible strategy for transducing ligand-binding events into electrochemical responses for a wide variety of proteins. The method exploits ligand-mediated hinge-bending motions, intrinsic to the bacterial periplasmic binding protein superfamily, to establish allosterically controlled interactions between electrode surfaces and redox-active, Ru(II)-labeled proteins. This approach allows the development of protein-based bioelectronic interfaces that respond to a diverse set of analytes. Families of these interfaces can be generated either by exploiting natural binding diversity within the superfamily or by reengineering the specificity of individual proteins. These proteins may have numerous medical, environmental, and defense applications.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Benson, D E -- Conrad, D W -- de Lorimier, R M -- Trammell, S A -- Hellinga, H W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2001 Aug 31;293(5535):1641-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Box 3711, Duke University Medical Center, Durham, NC 27710, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11533486" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A major cause of aging is thought to result from the cumulative effects of cell loss over time. In yeast, caloric restriction (CR) delays aging by activating the Sir2 deacetylase. Here we show that expression of mammalian Sir2 (SIRT1) is induced in CR rats as well as in human cells that are treated with serum from these animals. Insulin and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) attenuated this response. SIRT1 deacetylates the DNA repair factor Ku70, causing it to sequester the proapoptotic factor Bax away from mitochondria, thereby inhibiting stress-induced apoptotic cell death. Thus, CR could extend life-span by inducing SIRT1 expression and promoting the long-term survival of irreplaceable cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cohen, Haim Y -- Miller, Christine -- Bitterman, Kevin J -- Wall, Nathan R -- Hekking, Brian -- Kessler, Benedikt -- Howitz, Konrad T -- Gorospe, Myriam -- de Cabo, Rafael -- Sinclair, David A -- AG19719-03/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- AG19972-02/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- F32 CA097802/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 AG027916/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG019719/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG019972/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 AG028730/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM068072/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R37 AG028730/AG/NIA NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Jul 16;305(5682):390-2.
