    • Burzio, Veronica; Antonelli, Marcelo; Allende, Catherine C.; Allende, Jorge E. (2002)
      Protein kinase CK1 (previously known as casein kinase I) conforms to a subgroup of the great protein kinase family found in eukaryotic organisms. The CK1 subgroup of vertebrates contains seven members known as α, β, γ1, ...
    • Ferrarese, Anna; Marin, Oriano; Bustos, Victor H.; Venerando, Andrea; Antonelli, Marcelo; Allende, Jorge E.; Pinna, Lorenzo A. (2007)
      A crucial event in machinery controlled by Wnt signaling is the association of β-catenin with the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) protein, which is essential for the degradation of β-catenin and requires the multiple ...
    • Ponce, Daniela P.; Yefi, Roger; Cabello, Pablo; Maturana, Jose L.; Niechi, Ignacio; Silva, Eduardo; Galindo, Mario; Antonelli, Marcelo; Marcelain Cubillos, Katherine; Armisen Yáñez, Ricardo; Tapia, Julio C. (2011)
      β-Catenin is crucial in the canonical Wnt signaling pathway. This pathway is up-regulated by CK2 which is associated with an enhanced expression of the antiapoptotic protein survivin, although the underlying molecular ...
    • Rojas, Diego A.; Pérez Munizaga, Daniela A.; Centanin, Lazaro; Antonelli, Marcelo; Wappner, Pablo; Allende Connelly, Miguel; Reyes, Ariel E. (2007)
      Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) regulate gene expression in response to hypoxia and in vertebrates they are known to participate in several developmental processes, including angiogenesis, vasculogenesis, heart and central ...
    • Antonelli, Marcelo; Daniotti, José L.; Rojo, Daniel; Allende, Catherine C.; Allende, Jorge E. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 1996)
      The protein kinase casein kinase 2 (CK2) is ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells and is apparently involved in the control of cell division. The holoenzyme is a tetramer composed of two catalytic subunits (α and/or α') and ...
    • Alvarado-Díaz, Carlos P.; Tapia, Julio; Antonelli, Marcelo; Moreno, Ricardo D. (2009)
      Protein kinase CK2 is a serine/threonine kinase expressed in organisms from yeast to human and is composed of a catalytic subunit (α or α') and a regulatory subunit (β) forming a holoenzyme with the possible subunit ...
    • Antonelli, Marcelo; Olate, Juan; Graf, Rolf; Allende, Catherine C.; Allende, Jorge E. (1992)
      Polylysine, polyornithine and, to a lesser extent, polyarginine were found to stimulate the GTPase activity of the purified recombinant α subunit of the human Gi-3 transducing protein αi-3. Optimal stimulation of 4- to ...
    • San Martin, Inga A.; Varela, Nelson; Gaete, Marcia; Villegas, Karina; Osorio, Mariana; Tapia, Julio; Antonelli, Marcelo; Mancilla, Edna E.; Pereira, Barry P.; Nathan, Saminathan S.; Lian, Jane B.; Stein, Janet L.; Stein, Gary S.; Van Wijnen, Andre J.; Galindo, Mario A. (2009)
      Bone formation and osteoblast differentiation require the functional expression of the Runx2/Cbfβ heterodimeric transcription factor complex. Runx2 is also a suppressor of proliferation in osteoblasts by attenuating cell ...
    • Antonelli, Marcelo; Rosas, Carlos; Rojas, Mariana (2012)
      Members of vertebrates are complex structures with three lines to consider, proximal-distal, anterior-posterior and dorsal-ventral. The battery of genes involved in the formation of these structures is well conserved in ...
    • Moreno, Ricardo D.; Brouwer-Visser, Jurriaan; Alvarado, Carlos P.; Lagos-Cabré, Raúl; Antonelli, Marcelo (2008)
      The acrosome is a secretory vesicle located in the mammalian sperm head. Its main function is to transport hydrolytic enzymes. These enzymes will dissolve the zona pellucid, assisting the sperm in fertilizing the egg. The ...
    • Ponce, Daniela P.; Maturana, Jose L.; Cabello, Pablo; Yefi, Roger; Niechi, Ignacio; Silva, Eduardo; Armisen Yáñez, Ricardo; Galindo, Mario; Antonelli, Marcelo; Tapia, Julio C. (2011)
      β-Catenin is a key protein in the canonical Wnt signaling pathway and in many cancers alterations in transcriptional activity of its components are observed. This pathway is up-regulated by the protein kinase CK2, but the ...
    • Lizama, Carlos; Rojas-Benítez, Diego; Antonelli, Marcelo; Ludwig, Andreas; Bustamante-Marín, Ximena; Brouwer-Visser, Jurriaan; Moreno, Ricardo D. (2010)
      The pathways leading to male germ cell apoptosis in vivo are poorly understood, but are highly relevant for the comprehension of sperm production regulation by the testis. In this work, we show the evidence of a mechanism ...
    • Albornoz, Amelina; Yáñez López, José; Foerster, Claudia; Aguirre, Celeste; Pereiro, Luisa; Burzio, Verónica; Moraga, Mauricio; Reyes, Ariel E.; Antonelli, Marcelo (Society of Biology of Chile, 2007)
      Protein kinase CK1 is a ser/thr protein kinase family which has been identified in the cytosol cell fraction, associated with membranes as well as in the nucleus. Several isoforms of this gene family have been described ...
