Drosophila melanogasterGlutamate-Cysteine Ligase Activity Is Regulated by a Modifier Subunit with a Mechanism of Action Similar to That of the Mammalian Form (2001)
Journal Article
Fraser, J. A., Saunders, R. D. C., & McLellan, L. I. (2002). Drosophila melanogasterGlutamate-Cysteine Ligase Activity Is Regulated by a Modifier Subunit with a Mechanism of Action Similar to That of the Mammalian Form. Journal of Biological Chemistry, 277(2), 1158-1165. https://doi.org/10.1074/jbc.m106683200

Glutamate-cysteine ligase (GCL) plays an important role in regulating glutathione homeostasis. In mammals, it comprises a catalytic (GCLC) and modifier (GCLM) subunit. The existence of a modifier subunit in invertebrates has not been described to dat...

Cloning and functional pharmacology of two corticotropin-releasing factor receptors from a teleost fish (2001)
Journal Article
Pohl, S., Darlison, M. G., Clarke, W., Lederis, K., & Richter, D. (2001). Cloning and functional pharmacology of two corticotropin-releasing factor receptors from a teleost fish. European Journal of Pharmacology, 430(2-3), 193-202. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0014-2999%2801%2901391-7

Although it is well established that fish possess corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) and a CRF-like peptide, urotensin I, comparatively little is known about the pharmacology of their cognate receptors. Here we report the isolation and functional e... Read More about Cloning and functional pharmacology of two corticotropin-releasing factor receptors from a teleost fish.

Functional pharmacology of GABAA receptors containing the chicken brain γ4 subunit (2001)
Journal Article
Forster, I. C., Harvey, R. J., Darlison, M. G., & Benson, J. A. (2001). Functional pharmacology of GABAA receptors containing the chicken brain γ4 subunit. European Journal of Pharmacology, 419(1), 1-7. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0014-2999%2801%2900964-5

The functional pharmacology of receptors composed of the chicken brain {GABAA} receptor γ4 subunit and the mammalian {GABAA} receptor α3 and β2 subunits was studied by heterologous expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes using the two electrode voltage-...
