A Feed-Forward Circuit of Endogenous PGC-1α and Estrogen Related Receptor α Regulates the Neuronal Electron Transport Chain

open access: yesParkinson's Disease, 2016
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor  γ coactivator 1α (PGC-1α) is a central regulator of cellular and mitochondrial metabolism. Cellular bioenergetics are critically important in “energy-guzzling” neurons, but the components and wiring of the ...

Melatonin and the electron transport chain

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2017
Melatonin protects the electron transport chain (ETC) in multiple ways. It reduces levels of ·NO by downregulating inducible and inhibiting neuronal nitric oxide synthases (iNOS, nNOS), thereby preventing excessive levels of peroxynitrite. Both ·NO and peroxynitrite-derived free radicals, such as ·NO2, hydroxyl (·OH) and carbonate radicals (CO3 ...

Characterization of photosynthetic electron transport chain in bioenergy crop Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) under heat stress for sustainable cultivation

open access: yes, 2013
In order to explore the response of photosynthetic electron transport chain to heat stress, chlorophyll a fluorescence and modulated 820 nm reflection transients were examined in the leaves of Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.).

Unique photosynthetic electron transport tuning and excitation distribution in heterokont algae.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Heterokont algae are significant contributors to marine primary productivity. These algae have a photosynthetic machinery that shares many common features with that of Viridiplantae (green algae and land plants).

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Modeling the electron transport chain of purple non‐sulfur bacteria

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2008
Purple non‐sulfur bacteria (Rhodospirillaceae) have been extensively employed for studying principles of photosynthetic and respiratory electron transport phosphorylation and for investigating the regulation of gene expression in response to redox ...

Genes Involved in Maintaining Mitochondrial Membrane Potential Upon Electron Transport Chain Disruption

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Mitochondria are biosynthetic, bioenergetic, and signaling organelles with a critical role in cellular physiology. Dysfunctional mitochondria are associated with aging and underlie the cause of a wide range of diseases, from neurodegeneration to cancer ...

Induction Kinetics of Photosystem I-Activated P700 Oxidation in Plant Leaves and Their Dependence on Pre-Energization

open access: yes, 2010
Absorbance changes ¿A 810 were measured in pea (Pisum sativum L., cv. Premium) leaves to track redox transients of chlorophyll P700 during and after irradiation with far red (FR) light under various preillumination conditions in the absence and presence ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
