A guard cell carbonic anhydrase binds and regulates SLAC1 separate from its catalytic activity

Nature Communications
Stomata of plant leaves open to enable CO2 entry for photosynthesis and close when CO2 in the leaf is elevated. CO2 is thought to promote stomatal closure in part by activating the SLAC1 anion channel at the guard cell plasma membrane.

Unspecific Molecular Adsorption (UMA) Sample Preparation Method for Bottom‐up and Whole Protein Analysis: The Foundation

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The protein sample preparation methods for shotgun proteomics are nowadays well‐established unlike the ones for whole protein analysis. The goal of my work has been to create a simple methodology which provides a single uncomplicated sample preparation tool for these two fields. Nowadays the bulk of proteomics work is done using detergents for

Computational and Experimental Characterization of β-Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors

Bioinformatics and Biology Insights
Carbonic anhydrases in Mycobacterium tuberculosis are increasingly recognized as promising therapeutic targets in drug-resistant tuberculosis. In this study, a homology model of β-carbonic anhydrase was developed using the closely related Mycobacterium ...

Gene turnover in the common ancestor of all C4 grasses

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how plants evolve more efficient photosynthesis is important in a warming world where improving crop productivity and resilience is a global priority. By generating the first reference genomes for an early‐diverging group of grasses called the Aristidoideae, we were able to reconstruct the genetic makeup of the last common ancestor of all

Photo‐responsive carbon dots for pyroptosis‐mediated anti‐tumor application

Responsive Materials, EarlyView.
Photo‐responsive CDs generate ROS to induce tumor cell pyroptosis, thereby stimulating antitumor immunity. Abstract Pyroptosis refers to a kind of lytic programmed cell death, characterized by the release of pro‐inflammatory cytokines during the process. Owing to its immune response stimulation ability, pyroptosis has garnered considerable attention in

Neurotrophic Signaling, Sleep Physiology, and Retinal Neuroprotection: Integrative Mechanisms and Therapeutic Implications for Glaucoma

Sensory Neuroscience, EarlyView.
Glaucoma is increasingly understood as a neurodegenerative disorder shaped by sleep and circadian physiology, not intraocular pressure alone. Sleep loss and obstructive sleep apnea suppress BDNF–TrkB neurotrophic signaling, impair sleep‐dependent glymphatic clearance, and trigger microglial neuroinflammation and vascular insult at the optic nerve head,

Evaluation of Benzenesulfonamide Derivatives; Quinazoline and Sulfonamide Selectively Targeting Carbonic Anhydrase XII for Tumor Microenvironment Modulation in Human Breast Cancer Cells

Al-Mustansiriyah Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences
Tumor cells evolve adaptive mechanisms to function optimally within an acidic microenvironment. This adaptation is driven by the enhanced metabolic activity of tumors, which frequently results in acidosis and hypoxia.

Analysis of ligand binding to recombinant human carbonic anhydrases I, II, VII, IX and XIII. [PDF]

, 2013
Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are metalloenzymes that catalyze the conversion between carbon dioxide and bicarbonate. Their inhibition can be applied for treatment of different diseases, such as glaucoma, cancer, obesity, epilepsy, osteoporosis, etc.

Stimuli‐responsive nanostructured hydrogen sulfide donors for enhanced cancer treatments

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
Three typical kinds of stimuli‐responsive nanostructured hydrogen sulfide (H2S) donors are reviewed. The nanostructures ensure precise delivery of H2S to the lesion site and regulate the release behavior. The H2S‐based gas therapy has been used to synergize with other cancer treatment modalities, achieving enhanced efficacy while reducing side effects.

Biotechnologic applications of carbonic anhydrases from extremophiles

, 2019
International audienceThe extremophiles have adapted their enzyme, called “extremozymes,” to cope with extreme habitats (very hot or cold conditions, a high concentration of salt, as well as acid and alkaline slots; or places with toxic waste, organic ...
