Structure and function of the bacterial heterodimeric ABC transporter CydDC: stimulation of ATPase activity by thiol and heme compounds. [PDF]
In Escherichia coli, the biogenesis of both cytochrome bd-type quinol oxidases and periplasmic cytochromes requires the ATP-binding cassette-type cysteine/GSH transporter, CydDC.

Glyburide inhibits the Cryopyrin/Nalp3 inflammasome [PDF]
Inflammasomes activate caspase-1 for processing and secretion of the cytokines interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) and IL-18. Cryopyrin/NALP3/NLRP3 is an essential component of inflammasomes triggered by microbial ligands, danger-associated molecular patterns

Peptides and ATP binding cassette peptide transporters [PDF]
In this review our knowledge of ATP binding cassette (ABC) transporters specific for peptides is discussed. Besides serving a role in nutrition of the cell, the systems participate in various signaling processes that allow (micro)organisms to monitor the local environment. In bacteria, these include regulation of gene expression, competence development,

Not only P-glycoprotein: amplification of the ABCB1-containing chromosome region 7q21 confers multidrug resistance upon cancer cells by coordinated overexpression of an assortment of resistance-related proteins [PDF]
The development of drug resistance continues to be a dominant hindrance toward curative cancer treatment. Overexpression of a wide-spectrum of ATP-dependent efflux pumps, and in particular of ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein or MDR1) is a well-known resistance ...

A distinct mechanism for the ABC transporter BtuCD–BtuF revealed by the dynamics of complex formation [PDF]
ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are integral membrane proteins that translocate a diverse array of substrates across cell membranes. We present here the dynamics of complex formation of three structurally characterized ABC transporters—the BtuCD ...

RNAseq reveals hydrophobins that are involved in the adaptation of aspergillus nidulans to lignocellulose [PDF]
Background Sugarcane is one of the world’s most profitable crops. Waste steam-exploded sugarcane bagasse (SEB) is a cheap, abundant, and renewable lignocellulosic feedstock for the next-generation biofuels.
