GTP Hydrolysis Without an Active Site Base: A Unifying Mechanism for Ras and Related GTPases.
GTP hydrolysis is a biologically crucial reaction, being involved in regulating almost all cellular processes. As a result the enzymes that catalyze this reaction are amongst the most important drug targets.

Metabolic Origin, Role and Fate of the Denaturant Guanidine
The origin of metabolic guanidine is largely a mystery. We suggest it is created when guanine‐containing nucleotides are oxidised by molecular oxygen instead of being broken down into urea as purines normally would. Guanidine may act as a signal to help cells control the level of reactive oxygen species.

The malignant transformation from chronic viral hepatitis to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) involves intricate interactions among viral, host, and environmental factors. Key drivers of this transformation include viral integration, genomic instability, epigenetic modifications, oxidative stress, gut microbiota dysbiosis, chronic inflammation, immune ...

Specific Proteins in Nontuberculous Mycobacteria: New Potential Tools
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) have been isolated from water, soil, air, food, protozoa, plants, animals, and humans. Although most NTM are saprophytes, approximately one‐third of NTM have been associated with human diseases. In this study, we did a comparative proteomic analysis among five NTM strains isolated from several sources.

Restricted Access to Myeloid Cells Explained [PDF]
The lentiviral accessory protein, Vpx, is known to counteract a restriction factor that is specific to myeloid cells, such as macrophages and dendritic cells. This review summarizes the findings in two seminal studies that identify SAMHD1 as the cellular

Severing enzymes amplify microtubule arrays through lattice GTP-tubulin incorporation
Severing to build microtubules Microtubules are essential intracellular polymers, built from tubulin subunits, that establish cell shape, move organelles, and segregate chromosomes during cell division. Vemu et al.
