Metal‐dependent regulated cell death: Molecular architecture and translational frontiers
Intracellular metal dyshomeostasis orchestrates distinct regulated cell death programs, including iron‐driven ferroptosis, copper‐mediated cuproptosis, calcicoptosis, newly designated zincoptosis, mnoptosis, and coptosis. This review systematically delineates their molecular architectures—spanning from Sorafenib‐induced lipid peroxidation and ...

T47D Cells Expressing Myeloperoxidase Are Able to Process, Traffic and Store the Mature Protein in Lysosomes: Studies in T47D Cells Reveal a Role for Cys319 in MPO Biosynthesis that Precedes Its Known Role in Inter-Molecular Disulfide Bond Formation. [PDF]
Among the human heme-peroxidase family, myeloperoxidase (MPO) has a unique disulfide-linked oligomeric structure resulting from multi-step processing of the pro-protein monomer (proMPO) after it exits the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Binuclear Copper‐Dependent Oxidative Enzymes Involved in Fungal Natural Product Modifications
This article summarizes recent biochemical characterizations of a new enzyme family named by the authors as binuclear copper‐dependent oxidative enzymes (BiNCOs). Found in fungal natural product biosynthesis, BiNCOs catalyze diverse CH functionalization reactions, including C(sp3)H halogenation, C(sp3)H hydroxylation, C(sp3)O macrocyclization, and ...

ABSTRACT Mitochondria provide multiple functions for cellular physiology. Transplantation of mitochondria isolated from gastric epithelial cells GES‐1 reducing the malignancy of gastric cancer cells AGS was previously reported. To elucidate the underlying mechanisms, TMT‐based proteomic analysis coupling ingenuity pathway software prediction revealed ...

Heme Uptake and Metabolism in Bacteria [PDF]
All but a few bacterial species have an absolute need for heme, and most are able to synthesize it via a pathway that is highly conserved among all life domains. Because heme is a rich source for iron, many pathogenic bacteria have also evolved processes

Mitochondrial-nuclear heme trafficking is regulated by GTPases that control mitochondrial dynamics [PDF]
Abstract Heme is an essential cofactor and signaling molecule. All heme-dependent processes require that heme is trafficked from its site of synthesis in the mitochondria to hemoproteins in virtually every subcellular compartment. However, the mechanisms governing the mobilization of heme out of the mitochondria, and the spatio-temporal

Visualizing mitochondrial heme flow through GAPDH in living cells and its regulation by NO
Iron protoporphyrin IX (heme) is a redox-active cofactor that is bound in mammalian cells by GAPDH and allocated by a process influenced by physiologic levels of NO.

Heme Oxygenase-1: A Critical Link between Iron Metabolism, Erythropoiesis, and Development
The first mature cells to arise in the developing mammalian embryo belong to the erythroid lineage. This highlights the immediacy of the need for red blood cells during embryogenesis and for survival.

Cytochrome c oxidases are members of the heme-copper oxidase superfamily. These enzymes have different subunits, cofactors, and primary electron acceptors, yet they all contain identical heme-copper (CuB) binuclear centers within their catalytic subunits.
