Winter Temperature Affects Fatty Acid Composition and Gene Expression, but Not Fat Content and Survival in a Northern Population of a Range‐Expanding Spider

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study provides insight into the performance of a range‐expanding species and the physiological and molecular mechanisms underlying thermal tolerance at its expanding edge. ABSTRACT Species expand their geographic distribution when environmental conditions are favorable or when mutations arise that allow them to live in previously unfavorable ...

A circuit topology approach to categorizing changes in biomolecular structure

open access: yes, 2020
The biological world is composed of folded linear molecules of bewildering topological complexity and diversity. The topology of folded biomolecules such as proteins and ribonucleic acids is often subject to change during biological processes.

Expression of the gene for main intrinsic polypeptide (MIP): separate spatial distributions of MIP and beta-crystallin gene transcripts in rat lens development [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The main intrinsic polypeptide (MIP) is the major protein present in the lens fiber cell membrane and is the product of a gene which, as far as is known, is expressed only in the lens.

Characterization of different-sized human αA-crystallin homomers and implications to Asp151 isomerization.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Site-specific modifications of aspartate residues spontaneously occur in crystallin, the major protein in the lens. One of the primary modification sites is Asp151 in αA-crystallin.

Impact of obesity with impaired glucose tolerance on retinal degeneration in a rat model of metabolic syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
PurposeMetabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with several degenerative diseases, including retinal degeneration. Previously, we reported on progressive retinal degeneration in a spontaneous obese rat (WNIN/Ob) model.

βB2-Crystallin Promotes Axonal Regeneration in the Injured Optic Nerve in Adult Rats

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2015
The purpose of the study was to further scrutinize the potential of βB2-crystallin in supporting regeneration of injured retinal ganglion cell axons both in vitro and in vivo. Retinal explants obtained from animals after treatment either with lens injury

Post-translationally modified human lens crystallin fragments show aggregation in vitro

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2017
Background: Crystallin fragments are known to aggregate and cross-link that lead to cataract development. This study has been focused on determination of post-translational modifications (PTMs) of human lens crystallin fragments, and their aggregation ...

αB-crystallin and HspB2 deficiency is protective from diet-induced glucose intolerance

open access: yesGenomics Data, 2016
Emerging evidence suggests molecular chaperones have a role in the pathogenesis of obesity and diabetes. As αB-crystallin and HspB2 are molecular chaperones and data suggests their expression is elevated in the skeletal muscle of diabetic and obese ...

Conformational lock and thermal inactivation kinetics of Euphorbia amine oxidase [PDF]

open access: yes
The kinetics of thermal inactivation of copper-containing amine oxidase from euphorbia latex (ELAO) were studied in a 100-mM sodium phosphate buffer, pH 7, using cadavarine as the substrate.
