Emmons T, Shuck M, Babcock M, Holloway J, Leone J, Durbin J, et al.
Protein Pept Lett . 2008 Feb; 15(2):119-30. PMID: 18289104
BACE, or beta-secretase, is an attractive target in the treatment of Alzheimer's Disease because of its involvement in the generation of amyloid beta peptides. BACE is a type I transmembrane...

Yan R, Munzner J, Shuck M, Bienkowski M
J Biol Chem . 2001 Jun; 276(36):34019-27. PMID: 11423558
BACE1 and BACE2 define a new subfamily of membrane-anchored aspartyl proteases. Both endoproteases share similar structural organization including a prodomain, a catalytic domain formed via DTG and DSG active site...

Roberds S, Anderson J, Basi G, Bienkowski M, Branstetter D, Chen K, et al.
Hum Mol Genet . 2001 Jun; 10(12):1317-24. PMID: 11406613
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by accumulation of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain. The major components of plaque, beta-amyloid peptides (Abetas), are produced from...

Yan R, Bienkowski M, Shuck M, Miao H, Tory M, Pauley A, et al.
Nature . 1999 Dec; 402(6761):533-7. PMID: 10591213
Mutations in the gene encoding the amyloid protein precursor (APP) cause autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease. Cleavage of APP by unidentified proteases, referred to as beta- and gamma-secretases, generates the amyloid...

Bock J, Shuck M, Benjamin C, CHEE M, Bienkowski M, Slightom J
Gene . 1997 Mar; 188(1):9-16. PMID: 9099852
Detailed analyses of transcripts encoding various isoforms of the human potassium (K+, inward rectifying) channel ROM-K (also referred to as K(ir)1.1) revealed the existence of at least five distinct transcripts...

Jenkins J, Drong R, Shuck M, Bienkowski M, Slightom J, Arend W, et al.
J Immunol . 1997 Jan; 158(2):748-55. PMID: 8992991
The objective of these studies was to examine the molecular mechanisms involved in transcriptional regulation of the gene for the intracellular structural variant of the IL-1 receptor antagonist (icIL-1Ra) molecule....

Shuck M, Piser T, Bock J, Slightom J, Lee K, Bienkowski M
J Biol Chem . 1997 Jan; 272(1):586-93. PMID: 8995301
The DNA sequence encoding the rat brain inward rectifier-10 K+ channel was amplified from rat brain RNA using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and used to clone the human homolog. Low...

Am J Physiol . 1995 May; 268(5 Pt 1):C1173-8. PMID: 7762610
The pH sensitivity of a cloned rat kidney K+ channel, ROMK1, was examined after expression in Xenopus oocytes. Membrane currents and intracellular pH (pHi) were concomitantly monitored by the two-microelectrode...

McCall R, Romero A, Bienkowski M, Harris D, McGUIRE J, Piercey M, et al.
J Pharmacol Exp Ther . 1994 Nov; 271(2):875-83. PMID: 7965808
The purpose of the present study was to characterize U-92016A [(+)-R)-2-cyano-N,N-dipropyl-8-amino-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-3H-benz[e] indole] as a 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)1A receptor agonist and to compare its activity with that of standard 5-HT1A receptor agonists....
