This study explores the feasibility of expressing the antitumoral protein Amblyomin‐X through a suicide gene therapy approach and investigates its intracellular fate after gene delivery. Although the gene is efficiently expressed, melanoma cells rapidly degrade the Amblyomin‐X protein via proteasome activity.

Characterization of a novel PQQ-dependent quinohemoprotein pyranose dehydrogenase from Coprinopsis cinerea classified into auxiliary activities family 12 in carbohydrate-active enzymes. [PDF]
The basidiomycete Coprinopsis cinerea contains a quinohemoprotein (CcPDH named as CcSDH in our previous paper), which is a new type of pyrroloquinoline-quinone (PQQ)-dependent pyranose dehydrogenase and is the first found among all eukaryotes.

Copper acquisition by the SenC protein regulates aerobic respiration in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 [PDF]
Aerobic respiration of Pseudomonas aeruginosa involves four terminal oxidases belonging to the heme-copper family (that is, three cytochrome c oxidases and one quinol oxidase) plus one copper-independent, cyanide-insensitive quinol oxidase (CIO).

Electrochemical titrations and reaction time courses monitored in situ by magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy [PDF]
Magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra, at ultraviolet–visible or near-infrared wavelengths (185–2000 nm), contain the same transitions observed in conventional absorbance spectroscopy, but their bisignate nature and more stringent selection rules ...

Biochemical requirements for the maturation of mitochondrial c-type cytochromes
Cytochromes c are metalloproteins that function in electron transfer reactions and contain a heme moiety covalently attached via thioether linkages between the co-factor and a CXXCH motif in the protein. Covalent attachment of the heme group occurs on the positive side of all energy-transducing membranes (bacterial periplasm, mitochondrial ...

ABSTRACT Objective Super‐Refractory Status Epilepticus (SRSE) is a rare, life‐threatening neurological emergency with unclear etiology in many cases. Mitochondrial dysfunction, often due to disease‐causing genetic variants, is increasingly recognized as a cause, with each gene producing distinct pathophysiological mechanisms.

The ‘porin-cytochrome’ model for microbe-to-mineral electron transfer [PDF]
Many species of bacteria can couple anaerobic growth to the respiratory reduction of insoluble minerals containing Fe(III) or Mn(III/IV). It has been suggested that in Shewanella species electrons cross the outer membrane to extracellular substrates via ‘

Stark effect experiments in cytochrome c-type proteins: structural hierarchies
We performed hole-burning Stark effect experiments on cytochrome c in which the iron of the herne was either removed or replaced by Zn. According to the experiments, the free-base compound has an effective inversion center, even in the protein. The Zn compound, on the other hand, shows quite peculiar features: in the low-frequency range of the ...

Immune‐Driven Expression in Inclusion Body Myositis With T‐Cell Large Granular Lymphocytic Leukemia
ABSTRACT Objectives T‐cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T‐LGLL), reported in up to 58% of inclusion body myositis (IBM) patients, is a rare leukemia of cytotoxic or less commonly helper T cells. The range of myopathies in T‐LGLL and the impact of coexisting T‐LGLL in IBM are not well understood. Our objectives are to investigate the spectrum of
