Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

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

FEBS 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.

Crystal structure of catena-poly[[diaquacadmium(II)]-μ-3,3′-(1,3-phenylene)diacrylato]

Acta Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications, 2015
In the crystal of the title polymeric complex, [Cd(C12H8O4)(H2O)2]n, the CdII cation, located on a twofold rotation axis, is coordinated by two water molecules and chelated by two phenylenediacrylate anions (mpda) in a distorted octahedral geometry.

Bismuth Trioxide Modified Carbon Nanotubes as Negative Electrode Catalysts for all Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2020
Bismuth trioxide modified carbon nanotubes (Bi2O3/CNTs) composite was fabricated by liquid phase deposition-calcinating method and used as electrocatalyst for V2+/V3+ redox couple of all vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs).

P-2: Human vascular smooth muscle cell DNA synthesis stimulated by native low density lipoproteins involves redox-sensitive pathways. Inhibition by N-acetylcysteine and green tea constituents [PDF]

, 2017
High plasma concentrations of LDL are an important cardiovascular risk factor. The mechanisms involved in DNA synthesis induced by native LDL in human vascular smooth muscle cells are unclear.

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

GREEN SYNTHESIS OF NANOPARTICLES

5th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON BIOLOGICAL RESEARCH AND APPLIED SCIENCE
As the globe becomes greener, eco-friendly practices that protect the environment for coming generations are promoted. As a result, the world values the long-lasting qualities of personalized nanomaterials more than the diverse uses of nanotechnology, particularly in the medical industry.

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.
