Tuning genetic clocks employing DNA binding sites. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Periodic oscillations play a key role in cell physiology from the cell cycle to circadian clocks. The interplay of positive and negative feedback loops among genes and proteins is ubiquitous in these networks.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Calcium binding activity of the epidermal growth factor-like domains of the apicomplexan microneme protein EtMIC4 [PDF]
, 2005 Microneme proteins are secreted from apicomplexan parasites during invasion of host cells and they play crucial roles in parasite-host cell adhesion.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Differentiation-dependent glycosylation of cells in squamous cell epithelia detected by a mammalian lectin [PDF]
, 2002 The squamous stratified epithelia contain a proliferative (harboring mitotic activity) and a differentiating compartment. Due to the potential of protein-carbohyd rate interactions to regulate cellular activities we introduced a mammalian lectin to cyto-

A phenotypic drug discovery approach by latent interaction in deep learning
Royal Society Open ScienceContemporary drug discovery paradigms rely heavily on binding assays about the bio-physicochemical processes. However, this dominant approach suffers from overlooked higher-order interactions arising from the intricacies of molecular mechanisms, such as ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Proteolysis of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) by calpain [PDF]
, 2005 Calpains are non-lysosomal, Ca2+-dependent cysteine proteases, which are ubiquitously distributed across cell types and vertebrate species. The rules that govern calpain specificity have not yet been determined.

The metal binding site of zoocin A [PDF]
JBIC Journal of Biological Inorganic Chemistry, 2008 Direct metal analysis of the bacteriolytic exoenzyme zoocin A failed to unequivocally identify a putative metal cofactor; hence, indirect experiments utilizing NMR were undertaken to settle this question. Cd(2+) as a surrogate metal ion was reconstituted into EDTA-treated, metal-free recombinant zoocin, and (113)Cd-NMR was employed to explore binding ...
