Abstract
We used cDNA microarrays to analyze gene expression differences between human colorectal tumors and paired adjacent normal mucosa. We identified approximately 3.5-fold significant downregulation of selenium-binding protein 1 (SBP1) in colorectal tumors compared to normal mucosa (p = 0.003). Importan...

Abstract
Selenium is an important nutrient. The lack of selenium will suppress expression of various enzymes that will lead to cell abnormality and diseases. However, high concentrations of free selenium are toxic to the cell because it adversely affects numerous cell metabolic pathways. In Methanococcus van...

Abstract
Well-resolved and reproducible 2-DE profile of rat I/R lung tissues and normal lung tissues were obtained. In the I/R lung tissue profile, the average spot number from 3 gels was 489 +/- 52 spots (P > 0.05) with an average matching rate of 89.28% (P > 0.05), and in the control group, the average spo...

Abstract
In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), the putative selenium-binding protein (SBP) gene family is composed of three members (SBP1-SBP3). Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analyses showed that SBP1 expression was ubiquitous. SBP2 was expressed at a lower level in flowers and roots, wher...

Abstract
We have shown for the first time that SELENBP1 is expressed in both normal ovaries and ovarian tumors in the hen and that SELENBP1 expression is altered in the vicinity of the tumor. Furthermore, SELENBP1 expression in normal ovarian surface epithelium and in ovarian tumors parallels that previously...

Abstract
An established model for mechanistic analysis of lung carcinogenesis involves administration of 3-methylcholanthrene to mice followed by several weekly injections of the tumor promoter 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol (BHT). BHT is metabolized to quinone methides (QMs) responsible for promoting tumo...

Abstract
A selenium-binding protein (SeBP) from Methanococcus vannielii was recently identified, and its gene was isolated and overexpressed in Escherichia coli [Self, W. T., Pierce, R. & Stadtman, T. C. (2004) IUBMB Life 56, 501-507]. SeBP and recombinant SeBP (rSeBP) migrated as approximately 42-kDa specie...

Abstract
These results indicate that 3-MST and GAPDH have more suitable potentials as a physiological selenium-delivery protein than rhodanese. In the presence of a selenium-binding protein, a low level of selenodiglutathione formed from SeO3(2-) and glutathione could effectively replace the high concentrati...

Abstract
Selenium can be metabolized for protein synthesis by two major pathways in vivo. In a specific pathway it can be inserted into polypeptide chains as the amino acid selenocysteine, as directed by the UGA codon. Alternatively, selenium can be substituted for sulfur to generate the free amino acids sel...

Abstract
We purified from bovine brain cytosol a 56-kDa protein that shows a significant transport activity. Partial sequencing of four tryptic peptides obtained from the 56-kDa protein revealed its identity to a cytosolic protein previously characterized as a selenium-binding protein, SBP56. Recombinant SBP...

We provide evidence that [75Se]selenocysteine is produced by bovine selenocysteine synthase from Ser-tRNASec and [75Se]Sep, synthesized from elemental 75Se and Tris(trimethylsilyl)phosphite. We also studied the stability of SeP by NMR measurement. SeP was stable during storage under nitrogen at -80...
