Deletions in CWH43 cause idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus
Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a neurological disorder that occurs in about 1% of individuals over age 60 and is characterized by enlarged cerebral ventricles, gait difficulty, incontinence, and cognitive decline.

The yeast P5 type ATPase, Spf1, regulates manganese transport into the endoplasmic reticulum [PDF]
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a large, multifunctional and essential organelle. Despite intense research, the function of more than a third of ER proteins remains unknown even in the well-studied model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

We retrospectively evaluated the impact of C5 complement inhibition on immune cell profiles and recovery in 27 PNH patients; both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells exhibited partial recovery, while B cell counts increased but remained below normal levels. In contrast, Treg cells were significantly reduced in PNH patients and showed no notable change post‐treatment.

Chemoenzymatic synthesis of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycopeptides [PDF]
MUC1 glycopeptide was efficiently coupled to glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) derivatives by sortase A (SrtA), verifying that SrtA can accept sterically hindered glycopeptide as substrate for ligation with GPIs. This work has established a practical method for the chemoenzymatic synthesis of GPI-linked glycopeptides.

Structures of liganded glycosylphosphatidylinositol transamidase illuminate GPI-AP biogenesis
Many eukaryotic receptors and enzymes rely on glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors for membrane localization and function. The transmembrane complex GPI-T recognizes diverse proproteins at a signal peptide region that lacks consensus sequence and ...

The photoswitchable ABAMIs for the future regulation of GWT1 in a spatiotemporal level
The GWT1‐targeted azobenzene‐aminopyridine derivatives (ABAMIs), sensitive to the light at wavelengths from 365 to 520 nm, are separately developed as photochromic ligands to regulate bioactivity as well as the GWT1 functions. These molecules are smart tools in photopharmacological studies, giving an innovative method for understanding functional GWT1 ...

The CD90‐YY1‐SLC1A5 axis plays a significant role in gastric cancer. CD90 promotes the binding of YY1 to the SLC1A5 promoter. CD90 regulates SLC1A5‐mediated glutamine metabolism and ferroptosis. ABSTRACT CD90 (THY1) is a cell surface glycoprotein that plays a crucial role in the occurrence and development of various malignant tumors.
