Structure‐forward targeting of claudins with synthetic binders

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Claudins form the paracellular barriers between epithelial and endothelial tissues at tight junctions and are targets for molecular binders with the goal of modulating barrier permeability. Claudin‐binding molecules are relevant in drug delivery or in altering claudin interactions with disease‐causing proteins.

The invertebrate transporters of SLC6 family are able to transport D-amino acid

open access: yes, 2017
Neutral amino acids, which predominantly represent essential substrates in animals, are absorbed via a B0 transport system (the Broad neutral amino acid system).

The binding of auxin to the Arabidopsis auxin influxtransporter, AUX1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The cellular import of the hormone auxin is a fundamental requirement for the generation of auxin gradients which control a multitude of plant developmental processes.

Discerning protein pools by selective staining with self‐labeling tags

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cell surface proteins have an intra‐ and extracellular pool. Combining genetic fusion to self‐labeling tags that can be addressed with small molecule fluorophores allows separating these pools. We highlight recent developments and techniques for state‐of‐the‐art interrogation of cell surface proteins in the complex tissue setting.

Peptide transport in Candida albicans and synthetic antifungal agents [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
These studies have characterized the peptide transport systems of Candida albicans, with a view to the rational design of peptide antifungal agents exploiting the 'smugglin' concept.

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Metabolismo celular de la glucosa y la amoniogénesis en el riñón Glucose cellular metabolism and ammoniagenesis in the kidney

open access: yesRevista Habanera de Ciencias Médicas, 2012
Introducción: al igual que el hígado, el riñón realiza actividades metabólicas complejas, esto es posible debido a la presencia de múltiples complejos enzimáticos capaces de realizar todas las transformaciones metabólicas necesarias. El metabolismo renal
