Co-invalidation of Prnp and Sprn in FVB/N mice affects reproductive performances and highlight complex biological relationship between PrP and Shadoo.
Title: Co-invalidation of Prnp and Sprn in FVB/N mice affects reproductive performances and highlight complex biological relationship between PrP and Shadoo.
The Prion-like protein Shadoo is involved in mouse embryonic and mammary development and differentiation.
Title: The Prion-like protein Shadoo is involved in mouse embryonic and mammary development and differentiation.
These data are indicative of a physiological pathway to access Sho functions in the nucleus under conditions of impaired proteasomal activity.
Title: Proteasomal Inhibition Redirects the PrP-Like Shadoo Protein to the Nucleus.
Data suggest that expression of shadoo in neuron or hepatocyte cell lines induces same toxic phenotype of drug hypersensitivity as prion protein/PrP(-central region); this effect is counteracted by co-expression of PrP-wild-type.
Title: Expression of the Prion Protein Family Member Shadoo Causes Drug Hypersensitivity That Is Diminished by the Coexpression of the Wild Type Prion Protein.
No significant differences in survival, the incubation period of prion disease or other disease features were observed between Sho mutant and WT mice
Title: Unchanged survival rates of Shadoo knockout mice after infection with mouse-adapted scrapie.
These observations suggest that Shadoo can affect the prion replication process by (i) acting as a holdase and (ii) interfering with the dominant-negative inhibitor effect of the C1 fragment.
Title: Interaction between Shadoo and PrP Affects the PrP-Folding Pathway.
Data suggest that glycosylation status of the prion protein and yet-to-be-dentified proteases modulate internal C1 and C2 endoproteolysis of Shadoo (shadow of prion protein) and Doppel (doppelganger prion) in mouse neurons.
Title: Endoproteolytic processing of the mammalian prion glycoprotein family.
binding of Sho to anionic liposomes has disruptive effect on integrity of lipid bilayer leading to formation of supramolecular lipid-protein complexes. prion diseases might depend on the oligomerization state of Sho and on these lipoprotein assembles.
Title: Shadoo binds lipid membranes and undergoes aggregation and fibrillization.
Sho is not pi, or, given the accumulating data for many activities for PrP (C) , the pi hypothesis invoking a discrete signaling pathway to maintain neuronal viability is no longer tenable.
Title: Shadoo/PrP (Sprn(0/0) /Prnp(0/0) ) double knockout mice: more than zeroes.
Here we report that Shadoo (Sho)-a member of the prion protein superfamily-is also found in the nucleus of several neural and non-neural cell lines as visualized by using an YFP-Sho construct
Title: The highly conserved, N-terminal (RXXX)8 motif of mouse Shadoo mediates nuclear accumulation.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
