A Review of Functional Characterization of Single Amino Acid Change Mutations in HNF Transcription Factors in MODY Pathogenesis

Çubuk, Hasan; Yalçın Çapan, Özlem (Springer, 2021)

Mutations in HNF transcription factor genes cause the most common subtypes of maturity-onset of diabetes of youth (MODY), a monogenic form of diabetes mellitus. Mutations in the HNF1-alpha, HNF4-alpha, and HNF1-beta genes ...

HNF1A-MODY Mutations in Nuclear Localization Signal Impair HNF1A-Import Receptor KPNA6 Interactions

Fareed, Fareed M. A.; Korulu, Şirin; Özbil, Mehmet; Çapan Yalçın, Özlem (Springer, 2021)

Mutations in hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)1A gene cause the most common form of Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY), a monogenic subtype of diabetes mellitus. Functional characterization of mutant proteins reveals ...

p60-katanin: a novel interacting partner for p53

Korulu, Şirin; Yıldız, Ayşegül (Springer, 2020)

Katanin, one of the best-characterized microtubule (MT) severing proteins, is composed of two subunits: catalytic p60-katanin, and regulatory p80-katanin. p60-katanin triggers MT reorganization by severing them. MT ...

In Silico Analysis of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein N501Y and N501T Mutation Effects on Human ACE2 Binding

Çubuk, Hasan; Özbi·l, Mehmet (Elsevier Inc., 2022)

The SARS-CoV-2 is an RNA-based virus and the most vital step of its survival is the attachment to hACE2 through its spike protein. Although SARS-CoV-2 has the ability to maintain high accurate replication and it can be ...
