Exploring the Importance of PREX Proteins in Glucose Homeostasis and Insulin Signalling
PREX protein family (PREX1 and PREX2) guanine-nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) activate the small G protein Rac. They are important in many physiological and pathophysiological processes, including inflammation, neuronal plasticity, cancer progression and metastasis, with an exciting new role in …

Utilizing Parity Violating Electron Scattering As a Probe to Measure the Neutron Radius of 208-pb
<p>The Lead Radius Experiment 2 (PREX-II) and Calcium Radius Experiment (CREX) carried out in Hall A of the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility were designed to measure the neutron skins of 208-Pb and 48-Ca nuclei by measuring the parity-violating asymmetry APV of the elastic scattering …

The P-Rex1 Regulator Norbin Suppressess Neutrophil-Dependent Antibacterial Immunity
… Norbin in myeloid cells and with combined Norbin/Prex1 deficiency. Unexpectedly, I found increased adhesion, spreading, ROS production and degranulation responses in isolated Norbin-deficient neutrophils. Moreover, Norbin-deficient neutrophils had an increased ROS-dependent capacity to kill …

Studies of Interactions Between Rod-like Celulose Nanocrystals and Xylan and Pullulan Derivatives: A Light Scattering Study
… aggregation behavior in the two ternary systems: PreX where P4CC03 crosslinking occurred prior to the addition of cellulose nanocrystals and Rxn where cellulose nanocrystals were present during UV exposure. These studies showed P4CC03 adsorbed onto cellulose nanocrystals and UV induced …

DISSECTING THE FUNCTION AND INTERACTOME OF PLEKHS1 IN PROSTATE TUMORIGENESIS
… regulate keystone effectors like Akt, mTOR and PRex proteins that shape cell behaviour on many levels. Loss of the tumour-suppressor and PIP3-3-phosphatase PTEN, leads to constitutive activation of the PIP3-network and is a very common event in many human tumours, including prostate cancer. …

First Leptonic Probe of Neutron Radii in Lead at Low-Q2
… Facility (TJNAF), both the HAPPEX and PREx collaborations have carried out various high-precision polarized elastic electron scattering experiments to explore the nuclear structure, the nucleon form factor and the weak charge of proton and electron. They have done so through the …
