Spatiotemporal expression and regulation of peptidase inhibitor 3 and secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor at the maternal–fetal interface in pigs [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Bioscience, 2023
Objective Two serine protease inhibitors, peptidase inhibitor 3 (PI3) and secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor (SLPI), play important roles in protease inhibition and antimicrobial activity, but their expression, regulation, and function at the ...

CCHCR1 interacts specifically with the E2 protein of human papillomavirus type 16 on a surface overlapping BRD4 binding.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The Human Papillomavirus E2 proteins are key regulators of the viral life cycle, whose functions are commonly mediated through protein-protein interactions with the host cell proteome. We identified an interaction between E2 and a cellular protein called

HIV-1 fusion is blocked through binding of GB Virus C E2-derived peptides to the HIV-1 gp41 disulfide loop [corrected]. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
A strategy for antiviral drug discovery is the elucidation and imitation of viral interference mechanisms. HIV-1 patients benefit from a coinfection with GB Virus C (GBV-C), since HIV-positive individuals with long-term GBV-C viraemia show better ...

A structurally conserved site in AUP1 binds the E2 enzyme UBE2G2 and is essential for ER-associated degradation.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2021
Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) is a protein quality control pathway of fundamental importance to cellular homeostasis. Although multiple ERAD pathways exist for targeting topologically distinct substrates, all pathways require ...

Structures and comparison of endogenous 2-oxoglutarate and pyruvate dehydrogenase complexes from bovine kidney

open access: yesCell Discovery, 2022
The α-keto acid dehydrogenase complex family catalyzes the essential oxidative decarboxylation of α-keto acids to yield acyl-CoA and NADH. Despite performing the same overarching reaction, members of the family have different component structures and ...

Estradiol Attenuates the Severity of Primary Toxoplasma gondii Infection-Induced Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes Through the Regulation of Tregs in a Dose-Dependent Manner

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Estradiol (E2) plays a crucial and intricate role during pregnancy to mediate several aspects of the pregnancy process. A perplexing phenomenon in congenital toxoplasmosis is that the severity of Toxoplasma gondii (T.

Intracellular antibody signalling is regulated by phosphorylation of the Fc receptor TRIM21

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Cell surface Fc receptors activate inflammation and are tightly controlled to prevent autoimmunity. Antibodies also simulate potent immune signalling from inside the cell via the cytosolic antibody receptor TRIM21, but how this is regulated is unknown ...

The disulfide bonds in glycoprotein E2 of hepatitis C virus reveal the tertiary organization of the molecule. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2010
Hepatitis C virus (HCV), a major cause of chronic liver disease in humans, is the focus of intense research efforts worldwide. Yet structural data on the viral envelope glycoproteins E1 and E2 are scarce, in spite of their essential role in the viral ...
