Targeting the Mitochondrial Protease ClpP for Anticancer Therapy. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Med Chem
Cancer cells depend on mitochondrial reprogramming for growth, but this raises reactive oxygen species (ROS), increasing reliance on protein quality control (PQC) repair mechanisms. The mitochondrial proteome is maintained through a robust PQC composed of chaperones and proteases, including the mitochondrial matrix protease caseinolytic protease P ...

Pathological mutations promote proteolysis of mitochondrial tRNA-specific 2-thiouridylase 1 (MTU1) via mitochondrial caseinolytic peptidase (CLPP)

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2023
MTU1 controls intramitochondrial protein synthesis by catalyzing the 2-thiouridine modification of mitochondrial transfer RNAs (mt-tRNAs). Missense mutations in the MTU1 gene are associated with life-threatening reversible infantile hepatic failure ...

Complementation studies with human ClpP in Bacillus subtilis

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2020
ATP-dependent intracellular proteolysis is essential for all living organisms. ClpP, the proteolytic subunit of the ATP-dependent Clp proteases, shares 56% protein identity between B. subtilis and man. The aim of this study was to verify, whether human ClpP (HClpP) is able to substitute the bacterial pendant, BClpP, irrespectively of the huge ...

A sensitive soil biological indicator to changes in land-use in regions with Mediterranean climate

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The demand for reliable indicators to quantify soil health has increased recently. We propose and test the use of soil microbial functional diversity as an indicator of multifunctional performance in agriculturally important areas. Agricultural fields in

Recent structural insights into the mechanism of ClpP protease regulation by AAA+ chaperones and small molecules

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2022
ClpP is a highly conserved serine protease that is a critical enzyme in maintaining protein homeostasis and is an important drug target in pathogenic bacteria and various cancers.

Dysregulating ClpP: From Antibiotics to Anticancer? [PDF]

open access: yesCell Chemical Biology, 2018
In this issue of Cell Chemical Biology, Wong et al. (2018) identify several dysregulators of a key mitochondrial protease: casein lytic protease P (ClpP). These dysregulators were found to trigger programmed cell death and may offer fresh avenues for the development of novel cancer therapeutics.

Mitofusin-2 Down-Regulation Predicts Progression of Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2021
Identification of markers predicting disease outcome is a major clinical issue for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC). The present study aimed to determine the role of the mitochondrial proteins Mitofusin-2 (Mfn2) and caseinolytic protease P ...

ClpP inhibitors are produced by a widespread family of bacterial gene clusters

open access: yesNature Microbiology, 2022
The caseinolytic protease (ClpP) is part of a highly conserved proteolytic complex whose disruption can lead to antibacterial activity but for which few specific inhibitors have been discovered.

Metabolic Perturbations in a Bacillus subtilis clpP Mutant during Glucose Starvation

open access: yesMetabolites, 2017
Proteolysis is essential for all living organisms to maintain the protein homeostasis and to adapt to changing environmental conditions. ClpP is the main protease in Bacillus subtilis, and forms complexes with different Clp ATPases.
