Epididymosomes: transfer of fertility-modulating proteins to the sperm surface
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2015 A variety of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked proteins are acquired on spermatozoa from epididymal luminal fluids (ELF) during sperm maturation.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Molecular and structural studies on proteins involved in lipid biosynthesis in plants and bacteria [PDF]
, 2002 Fatty acid synthesis in plants and most bacteria is catalysed by a type II, dissociable fatty acid synthetase, critically involving the participation of acyl-carrier protein (ACP) during synthesis and elongation reactions. This provides the substrate for

ABSTRACT AAV is widely used for efficient delivery of DNA payloads. The extent to which the AAV capsid can be used to deliver a protein payload is unexplored. Here, we report engineered AAV capsids that directly package proteins – Protein Carrier AAV (pcAAV). Nanobodies inserted into the interior of the capsid mediate

Preclinical studies on new proteins as carrier for glycoconjugate vaccines.
Vaccine, 2016 Glycoconjugate vaccines are made of carbohydrate antigens covalently bound to a carrier protein to enhance their immunogenicity. Among the different carrier proteins tested in preclinical and clinical studies, five have been used so far for licensed ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Diseases Caused by Mutations in Mitochondrial Carrier Genes SLC25: A Review
Biomolecules, 2020 In the 1980s, after the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) had been sequenced, several diseases resulting from mtDNA mutations emerged. Later, numerous disorders caused by mutations in the nuclear genes encoding mitochondrial proteins were found. A group of these
