A photoreversible 1D protein assembly has been developed by utilizing symmetry matching between StrepTactin and photoswitchable Dronpa145N. The light‐induced modulation of oligomerization allows for precise control over protein connectivity and valency.

GroEL actively stimulates folding of the endogenous substrate protein PepQ
In the prevailing model for assisted protein folding, chaperonins act passively by preventing protein aggregation. Here, the authors use single-molecule fluorescence measurements and cryo-electron microscopy and show that theE.

A comprehensive analysis of prefoldins and their implication in cancer
Summary: Prefoldins (PFDNs) are evolutionary conserved co-chaperones, initially discovered in archaea but universally present in eukaryotes. PFDNs are prevalently organized into hetero-hexameric complexes.

Gut microbiota dysbiosis and Long COVID susceptibility in chronic kidney disease
This study investigated gut microbiota dysbiosis and its association with Long COVID susceptibility in 224 hemodialysis patients. We found that 35.3% of patients developed Long COVID, characterized by neurological symptoms and elevated inflammatory markers, accompanied by significant gut microbiota alterations including enriched proinflammatory taxa ...

Rare‐earth ions act as multifunctional modifiers in perovskite solar cells by improving charge transport, suppressing oxygen vacancies, passivating defects, promoting grain growth, and enabling redox‐mediated stabilization. In addition, RE‐doped layers can expand spectral utilization through upconversion and downconversion, thereby enhancing light ...

Mechanisms involved in the functional divergence of duplicated GroEL chaperonins in Myxococcus xanthus DK1622. [PDF]
The gene encoding the GroEL chaperonin is duplicated in nearly 30% of bacterial genomes; and although duplicated groEL genes have been comprehensively determined to have distinct physiological functions in different species, the mechanisms involved have ...

Mechanisms of a Mycobacterium tuberculosis Active Peptide
Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR) continues to pose a threat to public health. Previously, we identified a cationic host defense peptide with activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in vivo and with a bactericidal effect against MDR M ...

Omics‐driven drug repositioning reveals pyroxamide as a neuroprotective HDAC1 inhibitor in Parkinson's disease models. Abstract Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder mainly characterized by the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons originating in the substantia nigra (SN) pars compacta and projecting to other ...

cpnDB: A Chaperonin Sequence Database [PDF]
Type I chaperonins are molecular chaperones present in virtually all bacteria, some archaea and the plastids and mitochondria of eukaryotes. Sequences of cpn60 genes, encoding 60-kDa chaperonin protein subunits (CPN60, also known as GroEL or HSP60), are useful for phylogenetic studies and as targets for detection and identification of organisms ...

Structural Studies Of The Human Hsp60 And Bacteriophage Phiel Chaperonins [PDF]
Chaperonins are large protein complexes responsible for the refolding of misfoldedsubstrate. Many mechanisms of the folding process have not been completely elucidated.
