Deletion of heat shock protein 60 in adult mouse cardiomyocytes perturbs mitochondrial protein homeostasis and causes heart failure. [PDF]

, 2020
To maintain healthy mitochondrial enzyme content and function, mitochondria possess a complex protein quality control system, which is composed of different endogenous sets of chaperones and proteases.

Multimodal AI‐Driven Identification of Dehydrocostus Lactone as a Potent Renal Fibrosis Attenuator Targeting IQGAP1

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 20, 9 April 2026.
Renal fibrosis, a hallmark of CKD, lacks effective treatments. Herein, we developed a multimodal AI model (TCM‐SPred) to identify anti‐fibrotic agents and found that dehydrocostus lactone (DCL) targets IQGAP1 to inhibit Wnt signaling, blocking the interaction between IQGAP1 and CCT3, demonstrating potent anti‐fibrotic activity in vitro and in vivo ...

Directed transport as a mechanism for protein folding in vivo

, 2009
We propose a model for protein folding in vivo based on a Brownian-ratchet mechanism in the multidimensional energy landscape space. The device is able to produce directed transport taking advantage of the assumed intrinsic asymmetric properties of the ...

Clostridioides difficile‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Induce Proinflammatory Responses in Macrophages

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Clostridioides difficile (CD) is a leading cause of antibiotic‐associated diarrhoea in both hospitalized and non‐hospitalized patients. This study explores the role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from Clostridioides difficile strain 630 (CD630‐EVs), which released spherical EVs during in vitro culture, in modulating pro‐inflammatory ...

Capturing the essence of folding and functions of biomolecules using Coarse-Grained Models

, 2011
The distances over which biological molecules and their complexes can function range from a few nanometres, in the case of folded structures, to millimetres, for example during chromosome organization. Describing phenomena that cover such diverse length,

Proteomic Profiling of Human Extracellular Vesicles Reveals Diagnostic Biomarkers for Colon Adenocarcinoma

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2026.
Proteomic profiling of tissue explant‐ and plasma‐derived extracellular vesicles identified colon adenocarcinoma‐associated and healthy‐associated EV proteins. A 10‐protein EV panel enabled highly sensitive blood‐based detection of colon adenocarcinoma, showed marked postoperative changes, and retained performance in an independent validation cohort ...

Acetyl‐Phosphate Dependent Protein Acetylation in Neisseria gonorrhoeae

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 2, April 2026.
The role of acetyl‐phosphate‐dependent non‐enzymatic protein acetylation in Neisseria gonorrhoeae was investigated through the deletion of the phosphotransacetylase (pta) and the acetate kinase (ackA) genes, this led to a decrease and increase in protein acetylation, respectively.

Disease-associated mutations in the HSPD1 gene encoding the large subunit of the mitochondrial HSP60/HSP10 chaperonin complex

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2016
Heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) forms together with heat shock protein 10 (HSP10) double-barrel chaperonin complexes that are essential for folding to the native state of proteins in the mitochondrial matrix space.

Functions of J‐domain proteins in mitochondrial protein biogenesis

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Mitochondrial biogenesis and functions depend on the import and assembly of more than 1000 proteins that are made as precursors on cytosolic ribosomes. The majority of these precursor proteins are transported from the ribosome to the translocase of the outer membrane (TOM complex), which constitutes the main entry site for mitochondrial ...
