Use of Systems Engineering Approaches To Examine Stability & Sensitivity Of Alzheimer's Associated Pathways

, 2016
Alzheimer'sdisease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects the elderly population. There are two histopathological hallmarks of AD, the formation of neurofibrillary tangles, and amyloid plaques.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Phosphate limitation enhances malic acid production on nitrogen-rich molasses with Ustilago trichophora

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts
Background An important step in replacing petrochemical products with sustainable, cost-effective alternatives is the use of feedstocks other than, e.g., pure glucose in the fermentative production of platform chemicals.

PROTEIN CONFINEMENT AND EFFECTS ON THERMODYNAMIC STABILITY, AGGREGATION, AND ENZYMATIC ACTIVITY

, 2022
Proteins are complex, vulnerable macromolecules susceptible to denaturation in biological and manufacturing processes. Nearly all proteins require their native structure to function properly.

Septin 9 PB domains coordinate centrosome positioning and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...
