Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is a hereditary disorder in which a defective gene encoding 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase causes the accumulation of noncholesterol sterols, such as 7- and 8-dehydrocholesterol. Using rigorous analytical methods in

Minor aberrant pathways of cholesterol biosynthesis normally produce only trace levels of abnormal sterol metabolites but may assume major importance when an essential biosynthetic step is blocked. Cholesta-5,8-dien-3β-ol, its Δ5,7 isomer, and othe

The rate of drug-induced proliferation (DIP) has been proposed as an unbiased alternative drug effect metric. However, current assays are not easy and precise enough to track minor changes in cell growth. Here, we report the optimized EZMTT based det

Rapamycin is an immunosuppressive immunophilin ligand reported as having neurotrophic activity. We show that modification of rapamycin at the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) binding region yields immunophilin ligands, WYE-592 and ILS-920, with p

Aminoacyl-tRNA ( transfer RNA) synthetases are essential components of the cellular translation machinery as they provide the ribosome with aminoacyl-tRNAs. Aminoacyl-tRNA synthesis is generally well understood. However, the mechanism of Cys-tRNACys
