Abstract Objective Neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) and epilepsy are often associated. Increasing evidence highlights a pivotal role for pathogenic variants in genes encoding synaptic scaffolding proteins. Within this group, TANC2 has recently been implicated in intellectual developmental disorder with autistic features and language delay, with or ...

Ankyrin2 is essential for neuronal morphogenesis and long-term courtship memory in Drosophila
Dysregulation of HDAC4 expression and/or nucleocytoplasmic shuttling results in impaired neuronal morphogenesis and long-term memory in Drosophila melanogaster.

Proteomic signatures of equine dental tooth tissues in ageing and disease
Abstract Background Ageing and dental disease in horses lead to structural and functional deterioration of dental tissues, yet their molecular signatures remain poorly characterised. Understanding how these processes alter the protein composition of enamel, dentin, cementum and pulp is essential for improving equine oral health and identifying ...

Large Ankyrin repeat proteins are formed with similar and energetically favorable units.
Ankyrin containing proteins are one of the most abundant repeat protein families present in all extant organisms. They are made with tandem copies of similar amino acid stretches that fold into elongated architectures.

Computational Modeling of Designed Ankyrin Repeat Protein Complexes with Their Targets [PDF]
Recombinant therapeutic proteins are playing an ever-increasing role in the clinic. High-affinity binding candidates can be produced in a high-throughput manner through the process of selection and evolution from large libraries, but the structures of the complexes with target protein can only be determined for a small number of them in a costly, low ...

Experiencing 50 Years of Synergistic Development in Structural Biology and Enzymology
Picture of Sunney Chan with Academia Sinica (AS) President James C. Liao and three Vice Presidents: Shin‐Kun Peng (left one), Tang K. Tang (right one), and Mei‐Yin Chou (right 2), taken at the annual Chinese New Year's Banquet of AS, February 7, 2025. This was likely Sunney's last appearance in formal activities of AS.

Antiviral activity of recombinant ankyrin targeted to the capsid domain of HIV-1 Gag polyprotein
Background Ankyrins are cellular mediators of a number of essential protein-protein interactions. Unlike intrabodies, ankyrins are composed of highly structured repeat modules characterized by disulfide bridge-independent folding.

Can trigeminal sensations impact saltiness perception? A mini‐review
Abstract Many food companies have begun to reduce the salt content in their products due to health concerns; however, this reduction in salt content can affect the food's sensory appeal and flavour complexity. Flavour is defined as a combination of odour (i.e., smell), taste (i.e., gustation) and trigeminal sensations (i.e., chemesthesis).

Ankyrin domains across the Tree of Life [PDF]
Ankyrin (ANK) repeats are one of the most common amino acid sequence motifs that mediate interactions between proteins of myriad sizes, shapes and functions.

Biological Regulation via Ankyrin Repeat Folding [PDF]
By mimicking the phosphorylation of p19(INK4d), a tumor suppressor containing five ankyrin repeats, the native state could be destabilized to such an extent that only a partially folded state is populated at physiological temperature. This partly folded state, which mimics an on-pathway folding intermediate lacking structure in ankyrin repeats 1 and 2,
