Charest A, Bisaillon J, Lepine F, Beaudet R
Can J Microbiol . 1999 Jul; 45(3):235-41. PMID: 10408096
A methanogenic consortium was used to degrade phenol and ortho- (o-) cresol from a specific effluent of a petrochemical refinery. This effluent did not meet the local environmental regulations for...

Storring J, Charest A, Cheng P, Albert P
J Neurochem . 1999 Jun; 72(6):2238-47. PMID: 10349831
The transcriptional initiation and regulation of the rat serotonin 5-HT1A receptor gene were characterized. By three types of analyses, a single brain-specific site of transcriptional initiation was localized to -967...

Angers-Loustau A, Cote J, Charest A, Dowbenko D, Spencer S, Lasky L, et al.
J Cell Biol . 1999 Mar; 144(5):1019-31. PMID: 10085298
In this article, we show that, in transfected COS-1 cells, protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP)-PEST translocates to the membrane periphery following stimulation by the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin. When plated on...

Cote J, Charest A, Wagner J, Tremblay M
Biochemistry . 1998 Sep; 37(38):13128-37. PMID: 9748319
Identification of physiological substrates of protein tyrosine phosphatases is a key step in understanding the function of these enzymes. We have generated fibroblast cell lines having a gene-targeted PTP-PEST in...

Heesen M, Berman M, Charest A, Housman D, Gerard C, Dorf M
Immunogenetics . 1998 Mar; 47(5):364-70. PMID: 9510554
Degenerate RT-PCR was used to identify a new seven-transmembrane-spanning receptor expressed in astrocytes. A receptor, termed RDC1, displaying the characteristic structural features of a chemokine receptor was cloned. The predicted...

Nguyen L, Maroun C, Fixman E, Kamikura D, Fournier T, Charest A, et al.
J Biol Chem . 1997 Aug; 272(33):20811-9. PMID: 9252406
Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor is a multifunctional factor that induces mitogenesis, motility, invasion, and branching tubulogenesis of several epithelial and endothelial cell lines in culture. The receptor for hepatocyte growth...

Charest A, Wagner J, Kwan M, Tremblay M
Oncogene . 1997 Apr; 14(14):1643-51. PMID: 9135065
The involvement of murine protein tyrosine phosphatase-PEST (MPTP-PEST) in signal transduction pathways is suggested by its ability to dephosphorylate phosphotyrosine residues, its interaction with the adaptor protein SHC and by...

Charest A, Wagner J, Jacob S, McGlade C, Tremblay M
J Biol Chem . 1996 Apr; 271(14):8424-9. PMID: 8626541
The phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) or phosphotyrosine interaction (PI) domain of the proto-oncoprotein p52SHC binds to an NPXpY consensus sequence found in several growth factor receptors (Kavanaugh, W. M., Turck, C....

Albert P, Lembo P, Storring J, Charest A, Saucier C
Neuropsychopharmacology . 1996 Jan; 14(1):19-25. PMID: 8719026
The hypothesis that antianxiety or antidepressant agents (e.g., 5-HT1A agonists, 5-HT uptake blockers) exert their clinical actions via enhancement of serotonergic neurotransmission due to desensitization of 5-HT1A autoreceptors predicts that...

Charest A, Wagner J, Muise E, Heng H, Tremblay M
Genomics . 1995 Aug; 28(3):501-7. PMID: 7490087
Protein tyrosine phosphatases comprise a large family of enzymes that are involved in the control of cellular tyrosine phosphorylation. We have used lambda phage analysis to elucidate the complete genomic...
