Different effect of cadmium and copper on H+-ATPase activity in plasma membrane vesicles from Cucumis sativus roots.

The effect of heavy metals on plasma membrane (PM) H(+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.3.

135G>C and 172G>T polymorphism in the 5' untranslated region of RAD51 and sporadic endometrial cancer risk in Polish women.

Background: Despite advanced diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, endometrial cancer (EC) is still responsible for high morbidity and mortality of women. The genetic variability in RAD51 may contribute to the appearance and progression of various cancers including EC.

Aim: We investigated the association of polymorphisms in the DNA repair genes RAD51 135G>C and 172G>T with endometrial cancer risk.

Response of plasma membrane H+-ATPase to heavy metal stress in Cucumis sativus roots.

The effect of heavy metals on the modification of plasma membrane H(+)-ATPase (EC 3.6.3.

Comparison of heavy metal effect on the proton pumps of plasma membrane and tonoplast in cucumber root cells.

The effects of 10 microM cadmium, copper and nickel on the activities of vacuolar membrane and plasma membrane (PM) ATP-dependent proton pumps was investigated in Cucumis sativus L. root cells. It was demonstrated that vacuolar H+-ATPase (EC 3.
