Specific Excision of the Selenocysteine tRNA [Ser]Sec (Trsp) Gene in Mouse Liver Demonstrates an Essential Role of Selenoproteins in Liver Function (2004)

Carlson, Bradley A., Novoselov, Sergey V., Kumaraswamy, Easwari, Jae Lee, Byeong, Anver, Miriam R., Gladyshev, Vadim N., ...

Selenium is essential in mammalian embryonic development. However, in adults, selenoprotein levels in several organs including liver can be substantially reduced by selenium deficiency without any...

Selective Removal of the Selenocysteine tRNA [Ser]Sec Gene (Trsp) in Mouse Mammary Epithelium (2003)

Kumaraswamy, Easwari, Carlson, Bradley A., Morgan, Fanta, Miyoshi, Keiko, Robinson, Gertraud W., Su, Dan, ...

Mice homozygous for an allele encoding the selenocysteine (Sec) tRNA [Ser]Sec gene (Trsp) flanked by loxP sites were generated. Cre recombinase-dependent removal of Trsp in these mice was lethal to...

Association between the 15-kDa Selenoprotein and UDP-glucose:Glycoprotein Glucosyltransferase in the Endoplasmic Reticulum of Mammalian Cells (2001)

Korotkov, Konstantin V., Kumaraswamy, Easwari, Zhou, You, Hatfield, Dolph L., Gladyshev, Vadim N.

Mammalian selenocysteine-containing proteins characterized with respect to function are involved in redox processes and exhibit distinct expression patterns and cellular locations. A recently...

Structure-Expression Relationships of the 15-kDa Selenoprotein Gene (2000)

Kumaraswamy, Easwari, Malyhk, Andrey, Korotkov, Konstantin V., Kozyavkin, Sergei, Hu, Yajun, Lee, Byeong J., ...

Selenium has been implicated in cancer prevention, but the mechanism and possible involvement of selenoproteins in this process are not understood. To elucidate whether the 15-kDa selenoprotein may...

Activation of BRCA1/BRCA2-Associated Helicase BACH1 Is Required for Timely Progression through S Phaseâ–¿

Kumaraswamy, Easwari, Shiekhattar, Ramin

BACH1 (also known as FANCJ and BRIP1) is a DNA helicase that directly interacts with the C-terminal BRCT repeat of the breast cancer susceptibility protein BRCA1. Previous biochemical and functional...
