A well-conserved Plasmodium falciparum var gene shows an unusual stage-specific transcript pattern [PDF]

, 2003
The var multicopy gene family encodes Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) variant antigens, which, through their ability to adhere to a variety of host receptors, are thought to be important virulence factors.

Biomedical Applications of Nanozymes: An Enzymology Perspective

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
With a lens of enzymology, this review compares nanozymes with enzymes using the Michaelis‐Menten model and differences in KM and kcat along with catalysis in complex biological environment. The implications of these differences in biomedical applications of nanozymes are then described with a statistical analysis of the trend of therapeutic use of ...

Chondroitin 6-sulfate represses keratinocyte proliferation in mouse skin, which is associated with psoriasis

Communications Biology, 2021
Kitazawa et al. show that chondroitin 6-sulfate represses keratinocyte proliferation in skin. They find that mice deficient in chondroitin-6-O-sulfotransferase-1 (C6st-1), which synthesizes chondroitin 6-sulfate, exhibit keratinocyte hyperproliferation ...

A Novel Chondroitin AC Lyase With Broad Substrate Specificity From Pedobacter rhizosphaerae: Cloning, Expression, and Characterization

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Chondroitin AC lyase (ChSaseAC) is one of the essential polysaccharides lyases in low molecular chondroitin sulfate production. In this work, a novel PrChSaseAC from Pedobacter rhizosphaerae was successfully cloned, expressed in Escherichia coli.

Loss of Fibronectin Fiber Tension in Glioblastoma is Associated with Microvascular Proliferations and Immune Cell Infiltration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Researchers discovered that fibronectin fibers lose their tension in specific areas of glioblastoma brain tumors, accumulating in the lumen of proliferating blood vessels and in parenchyma next to infiltrating immune cell clusters. A novel molecular tension probe enables the mapping of fibronectin's fiber tension in glioblastoma for the first time ...
