We have purified and characterized a collagenase/gelatinase activity expressed during sea urchin embryonic development. The native molecular mass was determined to be 160 kDa, while gelatin substrate gel zymography revealed an active species of 41 kDa, suggesting that the native enzyme is a tetramer

## Abstract Iron regulatory proteins (IRPs), the cytosolic proteins involved in the maintenance of cellular iron homeostasis, bind to stem loop structures found in the mRNA of key proteins involved iron uptake, storage, and metabolism and regulate the expression of these proteins in response to cha
## Abstract Recently, we reported that silencing __CREB__ gene expression by RNAi significantly attenuates forskolinβinduced activation of Akt1. We now provide evidence that forskolinβtreatment causes transcriptional and translational upregulation of Akt1 in macrophages. Akt synthesis was demonstra
