Cardiomyocyte‐Enriched USP20 Ameliorates Pathological Cardiac Hypertrophy by Targeting STAT3 Deubiquitination

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cardiomyocyte‐enriched USP20 regulates the K63‐linked ubiquitination of STAT3, and the cardiomyocyte‐specific USP20‐STAT3‐CARM1 axis exerts a protective role in cardiac hypertrophy. Targeting USP20 through cardiac‐specific gene therapy presents a promising strategy for the treatment of cardiac hypertrophy.

Photoswitchable, Water‐Soluble Bisazobenzene Cross‐Linkers with Enhanced Properties for Biological Applications

ChemPhotoChem, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Photoswitchable cross‐linkers have the ability to connect two residues on a biomolecule, thereby causing large changes in the structure and function of the target upon irradiation. The design, synthesis and purification of cross‐linkers with large end‐to‐end distances remains challenging, especially for applications in chemical biology.

Sensing the allosteric force

Nature Communications, 2020
Allosteric regulation is an innate control in most metabolic and signalling cascades that enables living organisms to adapt to the changing environment by tuning the affinity and regulating the activity of target proteins. For a microscopic understanding

AKT1E17K‐Interacting lncRNA SVIL‐AS1 Promotes AKT1 Oncogenic Functions by Preferentially Blocking AKT1E17K Dephosphorylation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Wang et al. discover a novel lncRNA regulator of mutant oncoprotein which prevents AKT1E17K dephosphorylation. SVIL‐AS1 overexpression correlates with poor prognosis of breast cancer patients. It interacts with AKT1E17K protein and impedes PP2A holoenzyme from dephosphorylating AKT1 by blocking the binding of the regulatory subunit PPP2R2A to AKT1 ...

Dynamic Cap‐Mediated Substrate Access and Potent Inhibitor Design of Monkeypox Virus I7L Protease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The first crystal structure of MPXV I7L protease, revealing its unique dimeric form is resolved. The structures and MD simulations uncovered a dynamic cap region that regulates substrate access to the active site. The structural basis of substrate recognition and the catalytic mechanism are elucidated, which led to the development of a FRET‐based assay

Targeted Therapies in Myelofibrosis: Present Landscape, Ongoing Studies, and Future Perspectives

American Journal of Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myelofibrosis (MF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm that is accompanied by driver JAK2, CALR, or MPL mutations in more than 90% of cases, leading to constitutive activation of the JAK–STAT pathway. MF is a multifaceted disease characterized by trilineage myeloid proliferation with prominent megakaryocyte atypia and bone marrow fibrosis, as ...

Reversing allosteric communication: From detecting allosteric sites to inducing and tuning targeted allosteric response. [PDF]

PLoS Computational Biology, 2018
The omnipresence of allosteric regulation together with the fundamental role of structural dynamics in this phenomenon have initiated a great interest to the detection of regulatory exosites and design of corresponding effectors.

Dynamics of allosteric action in multisite protein modification [PDF]

, 2006
Protein functions in cells may be activated or modified by the attachment of several kinds of chemical groups. While protein phosphorylation, i.e. the attachment of a phosphoryl (PO$_3^-$) group, is the most studied form of protein modification, and is known to regulate the functions of many proteins, protein behavior can also be modified by ...

Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors and swodkocrine signaling

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Sugar‐sensing swodkoreceptors that trigger swodkocrine signaling. Abstract Sugars are one of the major metabolites and are essential for nucleic acid synthesis and energy production. In addition, sugars can act as signaling molecules. To study sugar signaling at the systemic level, there is an urgent need to systematically identify sugar‐sensing ...
