An engineered thermally tolerant apo-cytochrome scaffold for metal-less incorporation of heme derivative.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Cytochrome c552 from Thermus thermophilus is one of the hot topics for creating smart biomaterials as it possesses remarkable stability, is tolerant to multiple mutations and has therefore been recently reported for a number of functionalizations upon ...

The phylogeny of Acetobacteraceae: photosynthetic traits and deranged respiratory enzymes

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
We present here a comprehensive phylogenomic analysis of Acetobacteraceae, a vast group of alphaproteobacteria that has been widely studied for their economic importance.

The cytochromes of Acanthamoeba castellanii [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
1. Low-temperature difference spectra of gradient-purified mitochondria of Acanthamoeba castellanii reveal the presence of cytochromes b-555, b-562 and c-549, with a-type cytochromes having a broad asymmetrical maximum at 602 nm; these components were ...

Maternal vitamin D deficiency impairs Treg and Breg responses in offspring mice and deteriorates allergic airway inflammation

open access: yesAllergy, Asthma & Clinical Immunology, 2020
Background Vitamin D (VitD) can regulate immune responses and maternal VitD-deficiency can affect immune responses in the offspring. This study aimed at investigating the effects of maternal VitD-deficiency during pregnancy on Treg and Breg responses in ...

Cell geometry and membrane protein crowding constrain Escherichia coli growth rate, overflow metabolism, respiration, and maintenance energy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The physical dimensions and shape of bacterial cells define the surface area available to acquire nutrients and the volume available for synthesizing proteins and DNA. Here, we use computational systems biology to decode the importance of cell geometry as a major determinant of prokaryotic phenotype, including growth rate and metabolic efficiency. This

The presence of two cytochromes b in the facultative methylotroph Pseudomonas AM1

open access: yes, 1979
Two cytochromes b with absorption maxima at 555 and 562 nm and differing in their mid-point redox potentials are synthesized in Pseudomonas AM1 during growth on methanol or succinate in batch culture, or in NH4+-limited or carbon-limited continuous ...

Electron transfer between complexes III and IV in S. cerevisiae mitochondrial membranes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae mitoplasts is limited by complex IV catalytic capacity, rather than two‐dimensional cytochrome c diffusion. At physiological cytochrome c : supercomplex ratios at salinity equivalent to that of 20 mm monovalent salt, activity is maximized, indicating that this low ionic strength accurately mimics

The Rieske/cytochrome b complex of Heliobacteria

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Bioenergetics, 2008
Heliobacteria have a Rieske/cytochrome b complex composed of a Rieske protein, a cytochrome b(6,) a subunit IV and a di-heme cytochrome c. The overall structure of the complex seems close to the b(6)f complex from cyanobacteria and chloroplasts to the exception of the di-heme cytochrome. We show here by biochemical and biophysical studies that a heme c(

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

Iron homeostasis disruption and lipid peroxidation in skeletal muscle during short‐term immobilization

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
14‐day casting‐induced immobilization reduced gastrocnemius muscle mass and increased non‐heme iron and ferritin heavy chain levels. Despite iron accumulation, transferrin receptor 1 and iron regulatory protein 2 were paradoxically upregulated. Lipid peroxidation was elevated without compensatory antioxidant responses.
