GTP-Dependent Regulation of CTP Synthase: Evolving Insights into Allosteric Activation and NH3 Translocation

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Cytidine-5′-triphosphate (CTP) synthase (CTPS) is the class I glutamine-dependent amidotransferase (GAT) that catalyzes the last step in the de novo biosynthesis of CTP.

An Allele of Glutamate Formiminotransferase Triggers 5‐Methyl‐Tetrahydrofolate‐to‐MeFox Conversion and Facilitates Folate Biofortification in Maize

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the distinct roles of the glutamate formiminotransferase (GFT) enzyme in plants. The GFT triggers the conversion of 5‐methyl‐tetrahydrofolate to MeFox in plants, a process distinct from its role as a formiminotransferase in mammals.

Revisiting the microtubule based quantum models of mind: tubulin bound GTP cannot pump microtubule coherence or provide energy for alpha <-> beta computation in stable microtubules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The current paper investigates the biological models of stable brain microtubules as quantum or classical computers whose function is based on electron hopping associated with kinking of the tubulin dimer. Hameroff (1998a, 1998b, 2003a, 2003b), Tuszynski

Epigenetic Regulation of DAPK1 and Netrin‐1 Drives Diabetic Encephalopathy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies a microRNA (miR)‐216a‐5p/death‐associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1)/hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 homeobox A (HNF1A)/Netrin‐1 signaling axis in diabetic encephalopathy (DE). In leptin receptor‐deficient (db/db) and streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced diabetic mice, reduced miR‐216a‐5p increases DAPK1 expression, disrupting HNF1A binding to ...

STING COPII ER Export Trafficking and Signaling Primed by Phosphorylation Switches

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This schematic outlines STING trafficking and signaling via coat protein II (COPII)‐mediated endoplasmic reticulum (ER) export. Following cyclic GMP‐AMP (cGAMP) stimulation, TANK‐binding kinase 1 (TBK1) activates on COPII vesicles, partially dissociating into the cytosol to phosphorylate ER‐localized STING, creating pSGME/pFS COPII‐sorting motifs ...

A Longitudinal Study Reveals Metabolomic Markers for Individuals at Risk, Disease Severity, and Treatment Response in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates plasma metabolomic biomarkers for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) development using longitudinal data from 209 RA patients and 56 individuals at risk. It also reveals metabolic signatures linked to severity, age, sex, and anti‐citrullinated protein autoantibody in RA.

Structural Insights into the Regulation Mechanism of Small GTPases by GEFs

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Small GTPases are key regulators of cellular events, and their dysfunction causes many types of cancer. They serve as molecular switches by cycling between inactive guanosine diphosphate (GDP)-bound and active guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-bound states ...
