Prediction of repurposed drugs for treating lung injury in COVID-19 [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease discovered in 2019 and currently in outbreak across the world. Lung injury with severe respiratory failure is the leading cause of death in COVID-19, brought by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Phosphatidylserine and GTPase activation control Cdc42 nanoclustering to counter dissipative diffusion

open access: yesMolecular Biology of the Cell, 2018
The anisotropic organization of plasma membrane constituents is indicative of mechanisms that drive the membrane away from equilibrium. However, defining these mechanisms is challenging due to the short spatiotemporal scales at which diffusion operates ...

Phosphorylation at the Helm: Kinase‐Mediated Regulation of Primary Cilia Assembly and Disassembly

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The primary cilium serves as an antenna of most vertebrate cells and is important for conveying cues from several signaling pathways into appropriate cellular responses during development and homeostasis. Cilia assembly and disassembly processes are thought to be strictly controlled; however, the precise nature of molecular events underlying ...

Phosphatidylserine polarization is required for proper Cdc42 localization and for development of cell polarity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We used genetically-encoded fluorescent probes to visualize the distribution of phosphatidylserine (PS) in live S. cerevisiae. The majority of the PS was found to reside in the cytosolic leaflet of the plasma membrane.

Toca-1 Mediates Cdc42-Dependent Actin Nucleation by Activating the N-WASP-WIP Complex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
An important signaling pathway to the actin cytoskeleton links the Rho family GTPase Cdc42 to the actin-nucleating Arp2/3 complex through N-WASP. Nevertheless, these previously identified components are not sufficient to mediate Cdc42-induced actin ...

Single‐Cell Transcriptomic Analysis of the Immune Response to COVID‐19 and Tuberculosis Coinfection

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Understanding the immunological basis for severe outcomes in COVID‐19/Tuberculosis coinfection is critical. Our single‐cell analysis identifies key drivers: profound lymphocyte loss through combined apoptosis and altered trafficking, excessive S100 protein‐mediated inflammation contributing to cytokine storms, and systemic immune dysfunction ...

NNVA: Neural Network Assisted Visual Analysis of Yeast Cell Polarization Simulation

open access: yes, 2019
Complex computational models are often designed to simulate real-world physical phenomena in many scientific disciplines. However, these simulation models tend to be computationally very expensive and involve a large number of simulation input parameters

Unraveling the molecular mechanism of interactions of the Rho GTPases Cdc42 and Rac1 with the scaffolding protein IQGAP2

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2018
IQ motif–containing GTPase-activating proteins (IQGAPs) are scaffolding proteins playing central roles in cell–cell adhesion, polarity, and motility. The Rho GTPases Cdc42 and Rac1, in their GTP-bound active forms, interact with all three human IQGAPs ...

Glycoproteomics and Its Role in Understanding Bacterial O‐Linked Glycosylation

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Protein glycosylation is now recognized as a ubiquitous process observed in all domains of life. Within bacterial species, carbohydrates can be attached to multiple residues with glycosylation of serine, threonine, or tyrosine residues via their hydroxyl side chains referred to as O‐linked glycosylation.
