Elucidation of interface interactions between a dehydratase domain and an acyl carrier protein in cremimycin polyketide synthase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In modular polyketide synthases, the dehydratase (DH) domain catalyzes the dehydration reaction of the β‐hydroxyacyl unit attached to the cognate acyl carrier protein (ACP) domain. However, it is unclear how DH interacts with ACP during the reaction. In this study, we identified DH–ACP interface residues, providing the first detailed insights into DH ...

Functional variation among LPMOs revealed by the inhibitory effects of cyanide and buffer ions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study addresses the inhibition of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) by cyanide and explains how and why the magnitude of observed inhibitory effects depends on the way LPMO reactions are setup and on the type of LPMO. Enzymes known as lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are mono‐copper polysaccharide‐degrading peroxygenases that ...

Ablation of LRP6 in alpha‐smooth muscle actin‐expressing cells abrogates lung inflammation and fibrosis upon bleomycin‐induced lung injury

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 6 (LRP6) is a key receptor for the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf1 (DKK1). DKK1 protein expression is induced in a bleomycin (BLM)‐induced lung injury model. We show that DKK1 induces proinflammatory and profibrotic genes in lung fibroblasts.

Repetitive Sequence Transcription in Breast Cancer

Cells, 2022
Repetitive sequences represent about half of the human genome. They are actively transcribed and play a role during development and in epigenetic regulation.

Characteristics of the Kelch domain containing (KLHDC) subfamily and relationships with diseases

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Kelch protein superfamily includes 63 members, with the KLHDC subfamily having 10 proteins. While their functions are not fully understood, recent advances in KLHDC2's structure and role in protein degradation have highlighted its potential for drug development, especially in PROTAC therapies.

RFLSE: Joint radiomics feature‐enhanced level‐set segmentation for low‐contrast SPECT/CT tumour images

IET Image Processing
Doctors typically use non‐contrast‐enhanced computed tomography (NCECT) in the treatment of kidney cancer to map kidney and tumour structural information to functional imaging single‐photon emission computed tomography, which is then used to assess ...

Categorical exploratory data analysis on goodness-of-fit issues [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
If the aphorism "All models are wrong"- George Box, continues to be true in data analysis, particularly when analyzing real-world data, then we should annotate this wisdom with visible and explainable data-driven patterns. Such annotations can critically shed invaluable light on validity as well as limitations of statistical modeling as a data analysis

Insertion of the FeB cofactor in cNORs lacking metal inserting chaperones

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nitric oxide reductase is an enzyme found in the bacterial denitrification pathway. The NOR active site contains a non‐heme iron, often, but not always inserted with the assistance of chaperones. Here, we study the insertion of FeB in the subfamily of cNORs lacking chaperones and found a putative channel, conserved in the family, perhaps enabling the ...
