Antibiotic Acyldepsipeptides Stimulate the Streptomyces Clp-ATPase/ClpP Complex for Accelerated Proteolysis

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Clp proteases consist of a proteolytic, tetradecameric ClpP core and AAA+ Clp-ATPases. Streptomycetes, producers of a plethora of secondary metabolites, encode up to five different ClpP homologs, and the composition of their unusually complex Clp ...

Structural and functional insights into caseinolytic proteases reveal an unprecedented regulation principle of their catalytic triad [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013
Caseinolytic proteases (ClpPs) are large oligomeric protein complexes that contribute to cell homeostasis as well as virulence regulation in bacteria. Although most organisms possess a single ClpP protein, some organisms encode two or more ClpP isoforms. Here, we elucidated the crystal structures of ClpP1 and ClpP2 from pathogenic

Gut microbiota as a novel therapeutic target for eating disorders and obesity

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract highlights the bidirectional interaction between the gut microbiota and central homeostatic and hedonic mechanisms regulating food intake, which contributes to overweight and obesity. It also illustrates emerging microbiota‐based biomarkers and therapeutic strategies (including prebiotics, probiotics, postbiotics, synbiotics and ...

Molecular Chaperone Networks in Plants: Maintaining Proteostasis and Enhancing Stress Resilience for Crop Improvement

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

The mitochondrial protease ClpP is a druggable target that controls VSMC phenotype by a SIRT1-dependent mechanism

open access: yesRedox Biology
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), known for their remarkable lifelong phenotypic plasticity, play a pivotal role in vascular pathologies through their ability to transition between different phenotypes. Our group discovered that the deficiency of the

A study on trypsin, Aspergillus flavus and Bacillus sp. protease inhibitory activity in Cassia tora (L.) syn Senna tora (L.) Roxb. seed extract

open access: yesBMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 2011
Background Proteases play an important role in virulence of many human, plant and insect pathogens. The proteinaceous protease inhibitors of plant origin have been reported widely from many plant species.

Placental mitochondrial metabolic adaptation maintains cellular energy balance in pregnancy complicated by gestational hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Placental mitochondrial adaptation to gestational hypoxia. Hypoxic pregnancy in sheep increases placental insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF2) signalling (1), which is associated with a shift in capacity away from β‐oxidation (2) and complex I‐mediated respiration (3), while maintaining total oxidative phosphorylation capacity (4).

Applicability Assessment of a Microbial Proteolytic Fermentation Broth to Leather Processing and Protein Stain Removal

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Microbial proteases are fundamental towards the eco-sustainability of proteolysis at the industrial scale. A proteolytic broth was obtained from a bioreactor fermentation of a proteolytic Bacillus strain isolated from an industrial alkaline bath.

Dordaviprone Maintenance After Allogeneic HCT for High‐Risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Neoplasm

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 9, Page 2288-2296, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Dordaviprone is a first‐in‐class small‐molecule imipridone. In preclinical studies, it is active against leukemia cells harboring a TP53 mutation or complex karyotype and leukemia stem cells while sparing normal bone marrow cells. This study aimed to determine the safety of dordaviprone maintenance after allogeneic hematopoietic cell ...

Mitochondrial Dysfunction at the Crossroads of Necroptosis: Mechanisms, Molecular Mediators, and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 14, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The conceptual landscape of cell death has evolved beyond the traditional dichotomy of apoptosis and necrosis to encompass diverse regulated pathways including necroptosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis. Necroptosis, a caspase‐independent inflammatory form of programmed cell death, has emerged as a critical driver of the pathogenesis ...
