Abstract:The Moeller Molecular Modeling Team in conjunction with Dr. Jiajie Diao at the University of Cincinnati Medical College used 3D modeling and printing technology to study the vital role of the focal adhesion kinase family interacting protein of 200 kD (FIP200) in the autophagy process. The cellular process of autophagy is enabled by formation of autophagosomes, a double membraned structure that isolates substrates designated by the cell to be eliminated by autophagy. FIP200 is a 200 kD subunit of the ULK1 compl… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
