RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease. Abstract Background and Aims Receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) mediates NAFLD progression, but its metabolic function is unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of RIPK3 in modulating mitochondria function, coupled with lipid droplet (LD)

The role of clathrin in post-golgi trafficking in toxoplasma gondii [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Apicomplexan parasites are single eukaryotic cells with a highly polarised secretory system that contains unique secretory organelles (micronemes and rhoptries) that are required for host cell invasion.

A proteomic study of memory after imprinting in the domestic chick

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2015
The intermediate and medial mesopallium (IMM) of the domestic chick forebrain has previously been shown to be a memory system for visual imprinting. Learning-related changes occur in certain plasma membrane and mitochondrial proteins in the IMM.

Dynamin-like proteins in Trypanosoma brucei: A division of labour between two paralogs? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Dynamins and dynamin-like proteins (DLPs) belong to a family of large GTPases involved in membrane remodelling events. These include both fusion and fission processes with different dynamin proteins often having a specialised function within the same ...

Virtual Screening and Hit Selection of Natural Compounds as Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is one of the classical targets in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Inhibition of AChE slows down the hydrolysis of acetycholine and increases choline levels, improving the cognitive function. The achieved success of

A Bacterial Dynamin-Like Protein Confers a Novel Phage Resistance Strategy on the Population Level in Bacillus subtilis

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Bacillus subtilis DynA is a member of the dynamin superfamily, involved in membrane remodeling processes. DynA was shown to catalyze full membrane fusion and it plays a role in membrane surveillance against antibiotics.

Dynamins maintain nuclear envelope homeostasis and genome stability

open access: yesNature Communications
The nuclear envelope is a protective barrier for the genome and a mechanotransduction interface between cytoplasm and nucleus, whose malfunction disrupts nucleocytoplasmic transport, compromises DNA repair, accelerates telomere shortening, and promotes ...

Dynamin-Like Protein B of Dictyostelium Contributes to Cytokinesis Cooperatively with Other Dynamins

open access: yesCells, 2019
Dynamin is a large GTPase responsible for diverse cellular processes, such as endocytosis, division of organelles, and cytokinesis. The social amoebozoan, Dictyostelium discoideum, has five dynamin-like proteins: dymA, dymB, dlpA, dlpB, and dlpC.

Identification of novel NPRAP/δ-catenin-interacting proteins and the direct association of NPRAP with dynamin 2. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Neural plakophilin-related armadillo protein (NPRAP or δ-catenin) is a neuronal-specific protein that is best known for its interaction with presenilin 1 (PS1).

Open and cut: allosteric motion and membrane fission by dynamin superfamily proteins. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Cells have evolved diverse protein-based machinery to reshape, cut, or fuse their membrane-delimited compartments. Dynamin superfamily proteins are principal components of this machinery and use their ability to hydrolyze GTP and to polymerize into ...
