Balanced Expression of the Diiron Oxygenase BioE Is Essential for Biotin Homeostasis in Elizabethkingia meningoseptica

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
BioE is a new diiron oxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of long‐chain acyl groups into pimeloyl thioester, initiating biotin synthesis. The overexpression of EmBioE disrupts lipid metabolic homeostasis, requiring repressor BioL to maintain a balance between long‐chain fatty acids and biotin synthesis.

Ideals generated by submaximal minors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The goal of this paper is to study irreducible families W(b;a) of codimension 4, arithmetically Gorenstein schemes X of P^n defined by the submaximal minors of a t x t matrix A with entries homogeneous forms of degree a_j-b_i.

Heme accumulation in endothelial cells impairs angiogenesis by triggering paraptosis

open access: yesCell Death and Differentiation, 2017
Heme is required for cell respiration and survival. Nevertheless, its intracellular levels need to be finely regulated to avoid heme excess, which may catalyze the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and promote cell death.

A Dynamic Gate Enables Regioselective Hydroxylation of Free Arginine by a Non‐Canonical Heme Enzyme

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The YqcI/YcgG enzyme AglA employs a unique “sandwich” fold and a dynamic gating mechanism to selectively hydroxylate AMPn‐Arg at Nε. Site‐directed mutations reprogram regioselectivity or enable activity on free arginine by altering hydrogen‐bond networks, precisely positioning substrates.

A Comparison of Pathophysiology in Humans and Rodent Models of Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
Non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) affects an estimated 30,000 people each year in the United States, with an overall mortality of ~30%. Most cases of SAH result from a ruptured intracranial aneurysm, require long hospital stays, and result in ...

Neuregulin-1 attenuates experimental cerebral malaria (ECM) pathogenesis by regulating ErbB4/AKT/STAT3 signaling. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND:Human cerebral malaria (HCM) is a severe form of malaria characterized by sequestration of infected erythrocytes (IRBCs) in brain microvessels, increased levels of circulating free heme and pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, brain ...

Nrf2, a Cap’n’Collar Transcription Factor, Regulates Induction of the Heme Oxygenase-1 Gene*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1999
Stress response elements, which mediate induction of the mouse heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) gene by several agents, resemble the binding site for the activator protein-1 (Jun/Fos), Maf, and Cap’n’Collar/basic leucine zipper (CNC-bZIP) families of proteins. In

ERM Inhibition Confers Ferroptosis Resistance through ROS‐Induced NRF2 Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ERM inhibition disrupts ERM‐actin interactions, elevating ROS and triggering KEAP1 degradation, which stabilizes and activates NRF2. Nuclear NRF2 induces cytoprotective genes, notably HMOX1, enhancing redox buffering and suppressing lipid peroxidation to resist erastin‐induced ferroptosis.

The GluTR-binding protein is the heme-binding factor for feedback control of glutamyl-tRNA reductase

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Synthesis of 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) is the rate-limiting step in tetrapyrrole biosynthesis in land plants. In photosynthetic eukaryotes and many bacteria, glutamyl-tRNA reductase (GluTR) is the most tightly controlled enzyme upstream of ALA.

Nap1L4a Cooperates with Scl/Klf1 to Recruit H2A.Z in Mediating Interactions Among Cis‐Regulatory Elements and Transcription Required for Primitive Erythropoiesis in Zebrafish

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nap1l4a is required in erythropoiesis and hypoxia responses via physical interaction with Klf1 and Scl to recruit the histone variant H2A.Z. This facilitates its associated cis‐regulatory element (CRE) remodeling and the consequent chromatin assembly, and activates the transcription of erythroid lineage‐specific genes.
