Extracellular vesicles such as microvesicles and exosomes had long been considered to be simply cellular garbage bags.
This variation specifies the function as well as cellular localization of BAG domain proteins (Alberti et al. 2003).
A similar regulation of BAG1 and BAG3 was also found in the WI38 aging model (Supplementary Figure S1C), indicating a general effect of cellular aging on BAG expression changes.
The Fairchild Semiconductor International Corporation, whose semiconductors are used in cellular phones, air bags and personal computers, agreed yesterday to buy QT Optoelectronics for about $100 million, mostly in stock.
FAIRCHILD SEMICONDUCTOR CORP., South Portland, Me., whose chips are used in cellular phones, air bags and personal computers, agreed to buy the closely held Kota Microcircuits Inc., based in Loveland, Colo., and the Power Management unit of Micro Linear, based in San Jose, Calif., for $21 million in stock and cash.
Aside from the formation of the BAG-Hsc70 interaction, BAG proteins functionally interact with many proteins to regulate cellular functions.
This morning, a squad of Israeli soldiers was seen leaving the house carrying an ammunition belt and cellular phones in a plastic bag.
The observation that Bag5 interacts with GRP78 and stimulates its ATPase activity expands the range of action of the Bag proteins in other cellular events such as ER-mediated stress response and the UPR.
But it will probably be some time before the 1.2 billion mainlanders start rummaging through their clothes and bags every time a cellular telephone warbles.
Bag-1 (Bcl-2-associated athanogene), one of the first identified BAG proteins, is involved in cellular apoptosis, DNA binding, and transcription.
In some rural areas, people still tote Motorola "bag phones," which connect to analog cellular networks and have several times more power than today's pocket-sized gadgets.
