USP42 is identified as a novel DUB of PPARγ in hepatocytes. USP42 mediated PPARγ deubiquitylation determines its transcriptional preference on proliferative and redox balance genes. USP42 knockdown exacerbates liver damage and delays regeneration. FGF2 is the upstream signal that initiates and activates the USP42‐PPARγ axis.

Feline coronaviruses associated with feline infectious peritonitis have modifications to spike protein activation sites at two discrete positions [PDF]
Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is associated with mutations in the feline coronavirus (FCoV) genome that are thought to convert the subclinical feline enteric coronavirus (FECV) into the lethal feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV). A key feature of FIPV, not shared with FECV, is the productive infection of macrophages. Therefore mutations in

An antibody that prevents serpin polymerisation acts by inducing a novel allosteric behavior [PDF]
Serpins are important regulators of proteolytic pathways with an antiprotease activity that involves a conformational transition from a metastable to a hyperstable state. Certain mutations permit the transition to occur in the absence of a protease; when

In situ Cell‐type‐specific proteome Analysis using antibody‐mediated Biotinylation (iCAB) is a method that directly targets and analyzes proteins in specific cell types within tissue. Applied to 5xFAD mice, iCAB identifies ≈8000 cell‐type‐specific proteins, revealing unique pathways in neurons, astrocytes, and microglia.

In this paper, the synthesis of hydrazones derived from cromano, thiocroman, alkyl and aril hydrazones is described, as well as their leishmanicidal activity and their effect on cysteine proteases from L. (V) panamensis.

Takeda G protein‐coupled receptor 5 (TGR5) serves as a central regulator in the metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD)/metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis (MASH) transition via conjugated lithocholic acid (LCA). Mechanistically, TGR5 orchestrates lipotoxicity‐induced cell death through its interaction with CD36 ...

A folding inhibitor of the HIV-1 Protease [PDF]
Being the HIV-1 Protease (HIV-1-PR) an essential enzyme in the viral life cycle, its inhibition can control AIDS. The folding of single domain proteins, like each of the monomers forming the HIV-1-PR homodimer, is controlled by local elementary structures (LES, folding units stabilized by strongly interacting, highly conserved, as a rule hydrophobic ...

Schematic diagram showing the potential mechanism of bigelovin on the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome Bigelovin may inhibit activated protein C kinase 1 (RACK1) by directly binding with cys168 of RACK1. Bigelovin thus prevents oligomerization of NLRP3 (NLRP3 active conformation) and subsequent assembly of NLRP3 inflammasome, blocking the activation of
