Phosphoproteome Profiling of SH-SY5y Neuroblastoma Cells Treated with Anesthetics: Sevoflurane and Isoflurane Affect the Phosphorylation of Proteins Involved in Cytoskeletal Regulation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Inhalation anesthetics are used to decrease the spinal cord transmission of painful stimuli. However, the molecular or biochemical processes within cells that regulate anesthetic-induced responses at the cellular level are largely unknown.

The ADP-Ribosyltransferase Domain of the Effector Protein ExoS Inhibits Phagocytosis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa during Pneumonia

open access: yesmBio, 2014
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative pathogen commonly associated with nosocomial infections such as hospital-acquired pneumonia. It uses a type III secretion system to deliver effector proteins directly into the cytosol of host cells.

Antibody-validated proteins in inflamed islets of fulminant type 1 diabetes profiled by laser-capture microdissection followed by mass spectrometry. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
There are no reports of proteomic analyses of inflamed islets in type 1 diabetes.Proteins expressed in the islets of enterovirus-associated fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1DM) with extensive insulitis were identified by laser-capture microdissection mass ...

Rab11 and Its Role in Neurodegenerative Diseases

open access: yesASN Neuro, 2022
Vesicles mediate the trafficking of membranes/proteins in the endocytic and secretory pathways. These pathways are regulated by small GTPases of the Rab family.

In silico evidence that protein unfolding is as a precursor of the protein aggregation [PDF]

open access: yesChemPhysChem 2020, 21, 377, 2019
We present a computational study on the folding and aggregation of proteins in aqueous environment, as function of its concentration. We show how the increase of the concentration of individual protein species can induce a partial unfolding of the native conformation without the occurrence of aggregates. A further increment of the protein concentration

Pathophysiological Mechanisms in Neurodevelopmental Disorders Caused by Rac GTPases Dysregulation: What’s behind Neuro-RACopathies

open access: yesCells, 2021
Rho family guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) regulate cellular signaling and cytoskeletal dynamics, playing a pivotal role in cell adhesion, migration, and cell cycle progression.

A novel methodology on distributed representations of proteins using their interacting ligands [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics 2018, 2018
The effective representation of proteins is a crucial task that directly affects the performance of many bioinformatics problems. Related proteins usually bind to similar ligands. Chemical characteristics of ligands are known to capture the functional and mechanistic properties of proteins suggesting that a ligand based approach can be utilized in ...

A screening-compatible live cell fluorescence resonance energy transfer-based assay for modulation of Rho GTPase activity

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: Rho family GTPases are central regulators of cytoskeletal dynamics controlled by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (RhoGEFs) and GTPase-activating proteins (RhoGAPs).

Retromer subunit, VPS29, regulates synaptic transmission and is required for endolysosomal function in the aging brain

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Retromer, including Vps35, Vps26, and Vps29, is a protein complex responsible for recycling proteins within the endolysosomal pathway. Although implicated in both Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease, our understanding of retromer function in the adult ...

GTP Binding Assays in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2013
Signaling through G proteins constitutes an ancient mechanism that functions in the transduction of extracellular signals into intracellular responses. Activation of a proper receptor by a stimuli leads to an exchange of GDP for GTP, the activation of G ...
