TRAF6 and TAK1 Contribute to SAMHD1-Mediated Negative Regulation of NF-κB Signaling.

Sterile alpha motif and HD domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) restricts HIV-1 replication by limiting the intracellular deoxynucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) pool. SAMHD1 also suppresses the activation of NF-κB in response to viral infections and inflammatory stimuli. However, the mechanisms by which SAMHD1 negatively regulates this pathway remain unclear.

A Cyclin-Binding Motif in Human SAMHD1 Is Required for Its HIV-1 Restriction, dNTPase Activity, Tetramer Formation, and Efficient Phosphorylation.

Sterile alpha motif and HD domain-containing protein 1 (SAMHD1) regulates intracellular deoxynucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) levels and functions as a retroviral restriction factor through its dNTP triphosphohydrolase (dNTPase) activity. Human SAMHD1 interacts with cell cycle regulatory proteins cyclin A2, cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1), and CDK2. This interaction mediates phosphorylation of SAMHD1 at threonine 592 (T592), which negatively regulates HIV-1 restriction.

Physical-chemical modeling of elements' behavior in mixing sea and fresh waters of minor rivers in the White Sea catchment area.

The physical-chemical stage of marginal filters in minor rivers of the White Sea catchment area by the example of the Umba River, flowing to Kandalaksha Gulf, has been explored. Application of the method of physical-chemical modeling on the basis of field data allowed establishing migration forms of a number of elements in the "river-sea" system and deposition of solid phases when mixing waters. The mixing of river and sea water is accompanied by the sedimentation of predominantly goethite, hydromuscovite, and hydroxylapatite.
