Beyond Sexual Selection: Natural Selection Related Camouflage and Thermoregulation Shape Sexual Color Dimorphism in Diploderma Lizards

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Integrating comparative spectrometry, image analysis, and thermal modeling, we reveal that (1) females optimize crypsis via background matching, (2) males prioritize high‐contrast disruptive patterning at a significant thermoregulatory cost (reduced solar heat gain), and (3) habitat‐specific monomorphism in Diploderma slowinskii underscores ecological ...

Metabolic thermodynamics: pertinent reference state and energy potentials

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A recommendation and method to view the energy potentials of metabolites with reference to (green arrow) a biochemical precursor state (in green: water, Mg2+, phosphate, bicarbonate, ammonium, and sulfate, at pH = 7) rather than (the red arrow) the physical–chemical reference state (in grayish red) that is alien to biology, that is, O2, H2, N2 at 1 ...

Anemia‐associated mutations disrupt the CDIN1‐Codanin1 complex in inherited congenital dyserythropoietic anemia I (CDA‐I) disease

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Congenital dyserythropoietic anemia type I (CDA‐I) arises from mutations in Codanin1 and CDIN1. Using quantitative biophysical approaches, we show that disease‐associated mutations disrupt the CDIN1‐Codanin1 complex. Our findings provide critical insights into the molecular mechanism that links protein dysfunction to disturbing chromatin arrangement ...

Energetic stress in combination with impaired fatty acid oxidation induces sequestration of CoA and adaptation of CoA metabolism

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Computational modelling and in vitro liver cell experiments indicate that medium‐chain acyl‐CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) deficiency causes an accumulation of (especially medium‐chain) acyl‐CoAs at the cost of free CoA (CoASH). A substantial decrease in CoASH impairs flux through many pathways essential for energy homeostasis.

Tyrosine residues at the substrate binding site in human NQO1 homodimer: Protein conformational dynamics and optimization of substrate binding geometry

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Human NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 is a homodimeric flavoenzyme crucial for redox metabolism and linked to significant health issues. Point mutations at Tyr126 and Tyr128 demonstrate their essential roles in optimizing substrate binding geometry for catalysis, as well as in half‐site reactivity and conformational dynamics during the enzyme's ...
