Is lYL1 degradation by the proteasome directed by a N-terminal PEST rich site in a phosphorylation-independent manner?
Understanding LYL1 degradation is a step forward not only towards deciphering the normal function and regulation of LYL1, but could suggest post-translational mechanisms for upregulation of LYL1 that may contribute to its oncogenic role.
STAR thyroid surgery is a feasible technique. Factors, such as mass size, specimen volume, and patient body mass index, had little effect on operative times. These differences should not hinder the adoption of this procedure in North America, because new retractor systems help to overcome them. Further evaluation of this procedure is reasonable and safe.
