Ionomycin suppresses cancer cell growth by disrupting mitochondrial transcription
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.In this study, we identify a new function for the selective Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, as an inhibitor of mitochondrial transcription. Both total and nascent RNA analyses revealed that ionomycin treatment reduces the transcription of mitochondrial genes.

Critical Care Clinics, 1998 Antibiotic resistance is an increasing problem in many parts of the world. Antibiotic resistance has been associated with the use of some antibiotics but not with others. Due to the overuse of antibiotics with a high resistance potential, there has been an increase of resistance with certain bacteria, e.g., Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Biophysical characterisation shows that NanX, a membrane transport protein from the major facilitator superfamily (MFS), forms both monomers and dimers after purification. AlphaFold modelling and substrate docking provide information on residues likely involved in substrate recognition for NanX and another MFS member, NanT.

Horizontal gene transfer and evolution of antibiotic gene clusters [PDF]
Genome sequencing projects from diverse bacteria and the release of genetically engineered microorganisms make the topic of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) fashionable.

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We describe detailed protocols for the purification and preparation of Marchantia polymorpha Auxin Response Factor 2 (MpARF2). This protein is fused to an MBP solubility tag and an mNG fluorescent tag and is purified from Escherichia coli. The presented procedures make it possible to study MpARF2 assemblies, which could arise from phase separation ...
