The DNA/RNA autophagy protein SIDT2 as a novel neuropathological hallmark in Huntington disease

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
SIDT2‐immunoreactive inclusions are observed in the striatum, cerebral cortex, and hypothalamus in HD cases with different Vonsattel grades, and the frequency of SIDT2‐immunoreactive inclusions is associated with longer CAG repeats in the huntingtin gene.

Proteostasis of organelles in aging and disease

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Cells rely on regulated proteostasis mechanisms to keep their internal compartments functioning properly. When these mechanisms fail, damaged proteins accumulate, disrupting organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi, and lysosomes, as well as membraneless organelles, such as stress granules, processing bodies, the ...

Exercise‐related microRNAs in Caenorhabditis elegans regulate calcium homeostasis and mitochondrial dynamics: Conserved pathways, divergent microRNAs

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Exercise‐related microRNAs cel‐miR‐249‐3p and cel‐miR‐77‐5p in C. elegans regulate lifespan, fitness, mitochondrial morphology and membrane potential. Although lacking direct mammalian orthologs, H2O2‐induced microRNAs mmu‐miR‐181a‐5p and mmu‐miR‐378a‐3p regulate myogenesis, autophagy, mitochondrial content and respiration in murine myoblasts ...

Genetic dissection reveals distinct contributions of the eS31 N‐terminal domain to translational accuracy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The eukaryote‐specific N‐terminal domain (NTD) of eS31 uses two distinct strategies to maintain translation fidelity. During elongation, a positively charged “hotspot” fine‐tunes the selection of incoming aa‐tRNA. During termination, the entire NTD acts as a structural scaffold to ensure the correct positioning of the release factor eRF1.

Functional characterization of 42 CK2α de novo variants associated with Okur‐Chung neurodevelopmental syndrome

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Okur‐Chung neurodevelopmental syndrome (OCNDS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder associated with mutations in the gene coding for Protein kinase CK2α. In this work, 42 variants of CK2α associated with OCNDS were characterized in vitro. This included determination of catalytic activity and CK2α/CK2β‐interaction as well as an assessment of evolutionary ...

Compromised DNA replication in gut cells underlies sensitivity to genotoxic stress in the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
DNA damage in the tardigrade Hypsibius exemplaris elicits distinct cellular outcomes depending on replication status. While non‐replicating cells tolerate genotoxic stress, constitutively replicating cells undergo irreversible replication failure upon DNA damage, leading to loss of tissue homeostasis, fat depletion, sterility, and organismal death ...

Stimulating proteasomal degradation in human proteinopathies

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The proteasome mediates the degradation of a wide range of proteins. Boosting proteasomal degradation may be beneficial in several disease contexts and can be achieved either by modulating proteasome activity or by improving substrate delivery. Proteasome activity can be enhanced by increasing proteasome abundance, inducing constitutive gate opening ...

Combating ageing beyond the cell: Emerging roles of extracellular proteostasis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ageing challenges the body's ability to maintain a stable and functional proteome, leading to protein damage and aggregation both inside and outside cells. This review focuses on the less well understood mechanisms of extracellular protein quality control and how they become disrupted in ageing, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases.

Ethanol: response and mechanisms in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yes, 2011
The aim of this project is to identify behavioural phenotypes associated with ethanol in C. elegans and potential molecular targets for ethanol that underpin an ethanol response. This will be achieved through a multi-lateral approach using bioinformatics,

A lipid‐sensitive food choice behavior influences aging outcomes from a longevity‐promoting diet

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
C. elegans are exposed to a variety of bacteria in their natural environment and must be able to distinguish between beneficial and detrimental food sources. We show that C. elegans exposed to the bacterium from their natural habitat, Methylobacterium, disrupts lipid homeostasis, causing worms to avoid this bacterial species and choose the laboratory ...
