Role of Chaperonin CCT in G-protein Biosynthesis
… eukaryotic cytosolic chaperonin containing TCP1 (CCT) is a member of the group II chaperonins, which are defined as having octameric or nonameric rings composed of more than one type of subunit.;CCT is an essential part of eukaryotic cell function, and it has been estimated that it folds up to 10% …

The Role of Phosducin-like Protein and the Cytosolic Chaperonin CCT in G beta gamma dimer Assembly
… to regulate the activity of cytosolic chaperonin CCT by their high affinity interaction. In the present study, the three-dimensional structure of PhLP:CCT complex has been solved by cryoelectron microscopy. PhLP was found to bind only one of the chaperonin rings with both N- and C-terminal …

The Role of Phosducin-like Protein as a Co-chaperone with the Cytosolic Chaperonin Complex in Assembly of the G Protein βγ Subunit Dimer
… with the cytosolic chaperonin containing TCP-1 (CCT), and the βγ subunit dimer of heterotrimeric G proteins (Gβγ). Here we provide details obtained from cryo-electron microscopic and biochemical studies on the structure of the complex between the cytosolic chaperonin CCT and PhLP. Binding of PhLP …

An investigation into the relationship between surface concrete resistivity and chloride conductivity test
The chloride conductivity test (CCT) is a South African-developed Durability Index (DI) test used for the evaluation and quantification of the quality of concrete cover. It is also used as an input parameter for service life prediction (SLP) of RC structures in the marine environment, using a …

3D property objects in South African local government: the necessity of representing and managing the third dimension in the City of Cape Town property management system
… need for 3D in the PMS, the City of Cape Town (CCT) was adopted as a single case study, and modelled using systems thinking tools. The model focussed on the definition, use and management of property information, or the conceptual 3D property management object (PMO), to fulfil the land …

TO FACIAL FEATURES AS A NEW BIOMARKER FOR EARLY IDENTIFICATION OF HIGH-RISK ATHEROSCLEROSIS: A TRANSLATIONAL APPROACH
Introduction Cardiac computed tomography (CCT) emerged as a valuable non-invasive tool for early identification of high-risk coronary atherosclerosis. However, no validated biomarkers or scores are available to identify patients who may benefit from CCT in primary prevention. Aim of the present …

The Impact of Conditional Cash Transfer Programs Under Risk-Sharing Arrangements: Schooling and Consumption Smoothing in Rural Mexico
… the effectiveness of conditional cash transfer (CCT) programs. In particular, I compare the outcomes (schooling, child labor, and consumption) generated under the informal risk-sharing model with those that would be obtained, forcing households to make choices under autarky. I evaluate the effect …
