Hair Root Cell-Free Protein Synthesis
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1970 A cell-free amino acid incorporating system has been prepared from mammalian hair root cells obtained by epilating animals with latex paint. The system requires a particulate fraction from the tissue homogenate (microsomes or ribosomes), a supernatant fraction in the case of ribosomes, ATP, GTP and magnesium.

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

The control of ribosomal RNA synthesis in mammalian cells [PDF]
, 2013 The biogenesis of ribosomes is a fundamental process that occurs in all living cells. In mammalian cells, it is a highly complex process consisting of the coordinated synthesis and assembly of four ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) with about 80 ribosomal proteins (

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Protein changes associated with embryonic stem cell differentiation to vascular smooth muscle cells [PDF]
, 2006 PhDEmbryonic stem (ES) cells can differentiate into many different cell lines, including vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs). The aim of this project is to characterize protein changes during this differentiation process.

Cell free protein engineering using high throughput microfluidics [PDF]
Proteins are able to display a large variety of functions within nature all of which are encoded by their amino acid sequences. Through protein engineering the aim is to explore this space and uncover novel proteins or improve those which pre-exist and ...

Optimizing Cell-Free Protein Synthesis for Increased Yield and Activity of Colicins
Methods and Protocols, 2019 Colicins are antimicrobial proteins produced by Escherichia coli that hold great promise as viable complements or alternatives to antibiotics. Cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) is a useful production platform for toxic proteins because it eliminates the

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...
