Association of cyclophilins and cardiovascular risk factors in coronary artery disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Cyclophilins are chaperone proteins that play important roles in signal transduction. Among them, cyclophilins A, B, C, and D were widely associated with inflammation and cardiovascular diseases. Cyclophilins A and C have been proposed as coronary artery

Cyclophilins and Their Roles in Hepatitis C Virus and Flavivirus Infections: Perspectives for Novel Antiviral Approaches

open access: yesPathogens, 2021
Cyclophilins are cellular peptidyl-prolyl isomerases that play an important role in viral infections, with demonstrated roles in the replication of hepatitis C virus (HCV) and other viruses in the Flaviviridae family, such as dengue virus (DENV) and ...

Cyclophilins and Their Functions in Abiotic Stress and Plant–Microbe Interactions

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Plants have developed a variety of mechanisms and regulatory pathways to change their gene expression profiles in response to abiotic stress conditions and plant–microbe interactions. The plant–microbe interaction can be pathogenic or beneficial.

Structural and Functional Insights into Human Nuclear Cyclophilins

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2018
The peptidyl prolyl isomerases (PPI) of the cyclophilin type are distributed throughout human cells, including eight found solely in the nucleus. Nuclear cyclophilins are involved in complexes that regulate chromatin modification, transcription, and pre ...

Plant Cyclophilins: Multifaceted Proteins With Versatile Roles

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Cyclophilins constitute a family of ubiquitous proteins that bind cyclosporin A (CsA), an immunosuppressant drug. Several of these proteins possess peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) activity that catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of the ...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis cyclophilin A uses novel signal sequence for secretion and mimics eukaryotic cyclophilins for interaction with host protein repertoire. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Cyclophilins are prolyl isomerases with multitude of functions in different cellular processes and pathological conditions. Cyclophilin A (PpiA) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is secreted during infection in intraphagosomal niche.

Structural and Functional Characterization of a Novel Family of Cyclophilins, the AquaCyps. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Cyclophilins are ubiquitous cis-trans-prolyl isomerases (PPIases) found in all kingdoms of life. Here, we identify a novel family of cyclophilins, termed AquaCyps, which specifically occurs in marine Alphaproteobacteria, but not in related terrestric ...

Biochemical and functional characterization of Brucella abortus cyclophilins: So similar, yet so different

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Brucella spp. are the etiological agent of animal and human brucellosis. We have reported previously that cyclophilins of Brucella (CypA and CypB) are upregulated within the intraphagosomal replicative niche and required for stress adaptation and host ...

Cyclophilins A, B, and C Role in Human T Lymphocytes Upon Inflammatory Conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Cyclophilins (Cyps) are a group of peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases that play crucial roles in regulatory mechanisms of cellular physiology and pathology in several inflammatory conditions.

Cyclophilins as Modulators of Viral Replication

open access: yesViruses, 2013
Cyclophilins are peptidyl‐prolyl cis/trans isomerases important in the proper folding of certain proteins. Mounting evidence supports varied roles of cyclophilins, either positive or negative, in the life cycles of diverse viruses, but the nature and ...
