Shani, N.; Sapag, Amalia; Watkins, P. A.; Valle, D. (NEW YORK ACAD SCIENCES, 1996)The adrenoleukodystrophy protein (ALDP) and the 70-kDa peroxisomal membrane protein (PMP70) are half ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters in the peroxisome membrane. ALDP is defective in X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy ...

Characterization and analysis of conserved motifs in a peroxisomal ATP-binding cassette transporter Shani, N.; Sapag, Amalia; Valle, David (The American Society forBiochemistry and Molecular Biology, Inc., 1996)The adrenoleukodystrophy protein (ALDP) and the 70-kDa peroxisomal membrane protein are half ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters in the human peroxisome membrane. Both are implicated in genetic disorders of peroxisome ...

Díaz, René; Sapag, Amalia; Peirano, Alessandra; Steiner, Jeannette; Eyzaguirre, Jaime (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 1997-03-18)The cDNA, for xylanase B from Penicillium purpurogenum was cloned and sequenced. This DNA encodes a protein of 208 amino acids which is expected to yield a protein of 183 residues upon processing of the N terminus. The ...

Israel Jacard, Yedy; Quintanilla González, María Elena; Sapag, Amalia; Tampier de Jong, Lutske (NATL INST ALCOHOL ABUSE ALCOHOLISM, 2006)Two lines of rats bred to differ in their voluntary alcohol consumption-the alcohol-abstaining UChA rats and the alcohol-drinking UChB rats-differ in how effectively toxic acetaldehyde is removed during alcohol metabolism. ...

Sapag, Amalia; Vartikar, J. V.; Draper, D. E. (Elsevier Science Publishers B. V., 1990)The ribosomal protein S4 from Escherichia coli is essential for initiation of assembly of 30S ribosomal subunits. We have undertaken the identification of specific features required in the 16S rRNA for S4 recognition by ...
-
Sapag, Amalia; Draper, D. E. (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 1997-06)A minimum of 460 nucleotides of 16S ribosomal RNA are needed to fold the target site for E. coli ribosomal protein S4, although a much smaller region within this large domain is protected from chemical reagents by the ...

Sapag, Amalia; Tampier de Jong, Lutske; Prieto, A.; Quintanilla González, María Elena; Moncada, C.; Israel Jacard, Yedy (LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2003-08)Genetic factors influence alcohol consumption and alcoholism. A number of groups have bred alcohol drinker and non drinker rat strains, but genetic determinants remain unknown. The University of Chile rat lines UChA (low ...

Sapag, Amalia; Wouters, Johan; Lambert, Christophe; Ioannes, Pablo de; Eyzaguirre, Jaime; Depiereux, Eric (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2002-05-09)Eighty-two amino acid sequences of the catalytic domains of mature endoxylanases belonging to family 11 have been aligned using the programs MATCHBOX and CLUSTAL. The sequences range in length from 175 to 233 residues. The ...

Moncada, Claudio; Fuentes, Nelson; Lladser, Álvaro; Encina, Gonzalo; Sapag, Amalia; Karahanian, Eduardo; Israel Jacard, Yedy (PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2003-08)The high-affinity (K-M < 1 muM) mitochondrial class 2 aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) metabolizes most of the acetaldehyde generated in the hepatic oxidation of ethanol. H4-II-E-C3 rat hepatoma cells have been found to ...
