4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase in malaria parasites and enhances atovaquone efficacy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Atovaquone is an antimalarial requiring potentiation for sufficient efficacy. We pursued strategies to enhance its activity, showing that 4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, decreasing ubiquinone biosynthesis. Since atovaquone competes with ubiquinol in mitochondria, 4‐nitrobenzoate facilitates its action, potentiating ...

The effect of triazine - and urea - type herbicides on photosynthetic apparatus in cucumber leaves

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2011
About a half of the herbicides used at present in agnculture inhibit the light reactions in photosynthesis. Triazines and phenylureas shut down the photosynthetic process in susceptible plants by binding to specific sites within the plants photosystem II

Investigation of mitochondrial dysfunction by sequential microplate-based respiration measurements from intact and permeabilized neurons. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a component of many neurodegenerative conditions. Measurement of oxygen consumption from intact neurons enables evaluation of mitochondrial bioenergetics under conditions that are more physiologically realistic compared to ...

Differential Effects of Buffer pH On Ca\u3csup\u3e2+\u3c/sup\u3e-Induced ROS Emission with Inhibited Mitochondrial Complexes I and III [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Excessive mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) emission is a critical component in the etiology of ischemic injury. Complex I and complex III of the electron transport chain are considered the primary sources of ROS emission during cardiac ...

Knock-Out of the Genes Coding for the Rieske Protein and the ATP-Synthase δ-Subunit of Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In Arabidopsis, the nuclear genes PetC and AtpD code for the Rieske protein of the cytochrome b6/f (cyt b6/f) complex and the δ-subunit of the chloroplast ATP synthase (cpATPase), respectively.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Oxygen-sensing by ion channels and mitochondrial function in carotid body glomus cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Carotid body glomus cells release transmitters in response to hypoxia due to the increase of excitability resulting from inhibition of O2-regulated K+ channels. The mechanisms involved in the detection of changes of O2 tension are unknown.

Photophysiological and photosynthetic complex changes during iron starvation in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942

open access: yes, 2013
Iron is an essential component in many protein complexes involved in photosynthesis, but environmental iron availability is often low as oxidized forms of iron are insoluble in water.

Photosynthesis under far‐red light—evolutionary adaptations and bioengineering of light‐harvesting complexes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phototrophs evolved light‐harvesting systems adapted for efficient photon capture in habitats enriched in far‐red radiation. A subset of eukaryotic pigment‐binding proteins can absorb far‐red photons via low‐energy chlorophyll states known as red forms.

Nonlinear dynamics and band transport in a superlattice driven by a plane wave [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A quantum particle transport induced in a spatially-periodic potential by a propagating plane wave has a number important implications in a range of topical physical systems. Examples include acoustically driven semiconductor superlattices and cold atoms
