Structure and evolution of neuronal wiring receptors and ligands

Developmental Dynamics, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 27-60, January 2023., 2023
Abstract One of the fundamental properties of a neuronal circuit is the map of its connections. The cellular and developmental processes that allow for the growth of axons and dendrites, selection of synaptic targets, and formation of functional synapses use neuronal surface receptors and their interactions with other surface receptors, secreted ...

Pupylation‐Based Proximity Labeling Unravels a Comprehensive Protein and Phosphoprotein Interactome of the Arabidopsis TOR Complex

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The target of rapamycin (TOR) complex is a central plant growth regulator. Here, the protein–protein interactions underlying its various functions are mapped by pupylation‐based proximity‐labeling in Arabidopsis, using TOR complex subunits LST8‐1 and RAPTOR1, alongside TOR inhibitor FK506‐binding protein, as baits.

Global protein function prediction in protein-protein interaction networks [PDF]

Nature Biotech. 21, 697-700 (2003), 2003
The determination of protein functions is one of the most challenging problems of the post-genomic era. The sequencing of entire genomes and the possibility to access gene's co-expression patterns has moved the attention from the study of single proteins or small complexes to that of the entire proteome. In this context, the search for reliable methods

Syntaxin 17 Translocation Mediated Mitophagy Switching Drives Hyperglycemia‐Induced Vascular Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mitophagy switching drives high‐glucose‐induced vascular endothelial injury. Short‐term high‐glucose exposure upregulates Fis1 expression and enhances Fis1‐TBC1D15 interaction, activating Parkin‐mediated mitophagy. Long‐term high‐glucose exposure reduces Fis1 expression, inhibiting Parkin‐mediated mitophagy and triggering mitophagy switching from ...

The protective effects of rutin on the liver, kidneys, and heart by counteracting organ toxicity caused by synthetic and natural compounds

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 39-56, January 2023., 2023
Rutin is a flavonoid present in many plant species. Because of its antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and anti‐apoptotic properties, rutin is of interest for its potential protective effects against toxic agents. Rutin has potential therapeutic effectiveness against several toxicants, and its beneficial effects are more than likely mediated by its ...

The RhoGAP activity of CYK-4/MgcRacGAP functions non-canonically by promoting RhoA activation during cytokinesis

eLife, 2015
Cytokinesis requires activation of the GTPase RhoA. ECT-2, the exchange factor responsible for RhoA activation, is regulated to ensure spatiotemporal control of contractile ring assembly.

Advancement in research and therapy of NF1 mutant malignant tumors

Cancer Cell International, 2020
The NF1 gene encodes neurofibromin, which is one of the primary negative regulatory factors of the Ras protein. Neurofibromin stimulates the GTPase activity of Ras to convert it from an active GTP-bound form to its inactive GDP-bound form through its ...

Mitofusin 1 Drives Preimplantation Development by Enhancing Chromatin Incorporation of Histone H3.3

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
MFN1 exerts its function partially through histone H3.3 in early embryos. MFN1 colocalizes with PADI6, and its deficiency results in compromised cytoplasmic lattices and ribosomal subunits, leading to declined H3.3 protein level. This, in turn, hinders the incorporation of H3.3 into the embryonic genome, thereby causing failure of male pronucleus ...

RAB3B Dictates mTORC1/S6 Signaling in Chordoma and Predicts Response to mTORC1‐Targeted Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
RAB3B is unveiled as a prominent oncogenic regulator in chordoma, which can block the DUSP12‐mediated dephosphorylation of p‐S6 (S235/236). The combination of RAB3B and p‐S6 indicates a good prognostic value and predicts mTORC1 inhibitors response for chordoma patients.

Malignant progression of liver cancer progenitors requires lysine acetyltransferase 7–acetylated and cytoplasm‐translocated G protein GαS

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
KAT7‐acetylated and cytoplasm‐translocated G‐protein GαS enhances IL‐6 effect and drives HCC progenitor cell progression. Abstract Background and Aims Hepatocarcinogenesis goes through HCC progenitor cells (HcPCs) to fully established HCC, and the mechanisms driving the development of HcPCs are still largely unknown.
