ABSTRACT Context Placental calcium (Ca2+) transport is essential for foetal bone mineralisation and development, as well as for Ca2+ homoeostasis. Rare mutations in transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV) 6 of the infant cause insufficient maternal‐foetal Ca2+ transport through the placenta.

Ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like modifications in the endoplasmic reticulum stress response
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress activates various proteostasis control processes, including the unfolded protein response, ribosome‐associated quality control, and ER‐associated degradation. Ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like modifications dynamically regulate these processes to determine cell fate, promoting adaptation or inducing cell death.

Elucidation of the interactions between band 3 and ankyrin
The erythrocyte membrane is primarily linked to the spectrin-based cytoskeleton through association of band 3 with both ankyrin and adducin. Both interactions are critical for membrane stability and erythrocyte morphology.

ABSTRACT Background Inherited platelet disorders (IPDs) are rare hematologic conditions encompassing a heterogeneous spectrum of quantitative and qualitative platelet defects, frequently associated with variable clinical phenotypes and comorbidities. Accurate diagnosis necessitates comprehensive genetic characterization, detailed clinical and bleeding ...

Repetitive DNA sequences and ankyrin repeat domain number polymorphism.
The example of WD0766. A) Only the ankyrin repeat domain containing regions are shown. Blue rectangles represent individual ankyrin repeat domains. Dark gray rectangles with dotted outline represent ankyrin repeat domain remnants.

Innovations in Obesity Treatment: Beyond Adipose Tissue Dysfunction
Obesity drives chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cancer development through adipocyte dysfunction. Addressing this multisystemic disorder requires integrated strategies beyond diet and exercise, such as thermogenesis activation via menthol or capsinoids and appetite control through GLP‐1/GIP agonists and neuromodulation to ...

Poxviruses are large DNA viruses with an arsenal of immune-modulatory genes, many of which remain uncharacterized. Proteins with ankyrin repeats are distinct features of poxviruses, although the biological functions of ankyrin proteins are not fully ...

AIS Kv channel concentration is dependent on ankyrin G.
Confocal microscopy photomicrographs show that interference RNAs against ankyrin G impair the concentration of Kv1.2 and Kv2.2 at the AIS. Before plating, hippocampal neurons were nucleofected with plasmids expressing scrambled shRNA (A–C, G–I) or ...

TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains in the regulation of vascular function
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains. Calcium influx or calcium release from the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) activates TMEM16A channels through interactions with regulatory proteins in vascular smooth muscle cells or endothelial cells. TMEM16A channel activation drives chloride efflux,

Ankyrin-spectrin scaffolds, from blood to brain
The initiation and rapid transduction of electrical signals in the nervous system depends on the proper expression of voltage-gated sodium channels in the axon initial segment and nodes of Ranvier. The localization of sodium channel in neurons depends on
