Comprehensive genome-wide identification of rice AAA-ATPase gene family and functional validation of

open access: yesPlant Stress
AAA-ATPases (ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities) play critical roles in diverse cellular activities across organisms. However, systematic analysis of this family in rice and its involvement in disease resistance remains limited.

Assembly principles of a unique cage formed by hexameric and decameric E. coli proteins

open access: yeseLife, 2014
A 3.3 MDa macromolecular cage between two Escherichia coli proteins with seemingly incompatible symmetries–the hexameric AAA+ ATPase RavA and the decameric inducible lysine decarboxylase LdcI–is reconstructed by cryo-electron microscopy to 11 Å ...

Structure and Function of p97 and Pex1/6 Type II AAA+ Complexes

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2017
Protein complexes of the Type II AAA+ (ATPases associated with diverse cellular activities) family are typically hexamers of 80–150 kDa protomers that harbor two AAA+ ATPase domains.

The Rice AAA-ATPase OsFIGNL1 Is Essential for Male Meiosis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Meiosis is crucial in reproduction of plants and ensuring genetic diversity. Although several genes involved in homologous recombination and DNA repair have been reported, their functions in rice (Oryza sativa) male meiosis remain poorly understood. Here, we isolated and characterized the rice OsFIGNL1 (OsFidgetin-like 1) gene, encoding a conserved AAA-

A CDK-regulated chromatin segregase promoting chromosome replication

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
How cells coordinate chromatin dynamics with the cell cycle machinery to promote genome duplication during S phase is still a matter of study. Here the authors reveal by in vitro reconstitution assays that the AAA + -ATPase containing Yta7 protein in S ...

The Protein Chaperone ClpX Targets Native and Non-native Aggregated Substrates for Remodeling, Disassembly, and Degradation with ClpP

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2017
ClpX is a member of the Clp/Hsp100 family of ATP-dependent chaperones and partners with ClpP, a compartmentalized protease, to degrade protein substrates bearing specific recognition signals.

An empirical energy landscape reveals mechanism of proteasome in polypeptide translocation

open access: yeseLife, 2022
The ring-like ATPase complexes in the AAA+ family perform diverse cellular functions that require coordination between the conformational transitions of their individual ATPase subunits (Erzberger and Berger, 2006; Puchades et al., 2020).

Structure of the active form of human origin recognition complex and its ATPase motor module

open access: yeseLife, 2017
Binding of the Origin Recognition Complex (ORC) to origins of replication marks the first step in the initiation of replication of the genome in all eukaryotic cells.

Klotho‐Derived Peptide 1 Protects against Acute Kidney Injury by Directly Targeting Mitochondrial ATAD3A

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers that KP1, a Klotho‐derived peptide, protects the kidney against acute kidney injury, a clinical syndrome with high morbidity and mortality. KP1 enters tubular epithelial cells via endocytosis, directly interacts with the mitochondrial ATAD3A/HIGD2A complex, thereby preventing cytochrome c release, and caspases activation, and ...

Mitochondrial Localization of Cx26 Promotes Colorectal Cancer Malignancy and Exposes a Fatal Vulnerability to Drug Targeting

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial localization of Cx26 emerges as a double‐edged sword in colorectal cancer. PIMT‐mediated methylation of Cx26 promotes its mitochondrial localization and stability. Mitochondrial Cx26 then facilitates ER‐mitochondria communication and Ca2+ signaling, thereby promoting metastatic progression. Bortezomib exploits this malignant adaptation by
