FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The yeast mitoribosome assembly factor Rsm22 contains a [4Fe‐4S] cluster that is matured by the mitochondrial iron–sulfur cluster assembly (ISC) machinery. Defects in ISC components result in impaired mitochondrial protein synthesis due to a mitoribosome assembly defect.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1970 Abstract β-Ketoacyl acyl carrier protein (ACP) synthetase, which catalyzes the condensation of fatty acyl-ACP with malonyl-ACP to form β-ketoacyl-ACP, has been crystallized in a highly active form which is stable for several months. Phosphate has been shown to cause enzyme activation which may be due to a conformational change of the protein. Guanidine

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

A Review of Whey Protein-Based Bioactive Delivery Systems: Design, Fabrication, and Application
FoodsThe efficacy of many edible bioactive agents is limited by their low water dispersibility and chemical instability in foods, as well as by their poor bioaccessibility, low absorption, and metabolism within the human gastrointestinal tract.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The Arabidopsis mutants hls1 hlh1 and amp1 lamp1 exhibit pleiotropic developmental phenotypes. Although the functions of the causative genes remain unclear, they act in the same genetic pathway and are thought to generate non‐cell‐autonomous signals.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disease affecting motor neurons. Individuals with SMA experience mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of an antioxidant and neuroprotective substance, ergothioneine (ERGO), on an SMNΔ7 mouse model of SMA.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Functional heterogeneity of ubiquitin carrier proteins.
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1985 In the formation of covalent ubiquitin-protein conjugates that occurs during ATP- and ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis in reticulocyte extracts, ubiquitin (Ub) is activated to a thiol ester of the activating enzyme E1 (via the Ub carboxyl terminus), transferred to low-molecular weight "carrier proteins" (E2s) to form E2-Ub thiol esters, and then ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Combining melting curve analysis enhances the multiplexing capability of digital PCR. Here, we developed a 14‐plex assay to simultaneously measure single nucleotide mutations and amplifications of KRAS and GNAS, which are common driver genes in pancreatic cancer precursors. This assay accurately quantified variant allele frequencies in clinical samples
