High-throughput screening of histone deacetylases and determination of kinetic parameters using fluorogenic assays

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2021
Summary: Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are ubiquitous enzymes that cleave post-translational ε-N-acyllysine modifications. The continued identification of diverse acyl modifications at lysine residues in proteins has resulted in discovery of new insight ...

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...

Differential Assay for High-Throughput Screening of Antibacterial Compounds

open access: yesSLAS Discovery, 2007
The previously described Bacillus subtilis reporter strain BAU-102 is capable of detecting cell wall synthesis inhibitors that act at all stages of the cell wall synthesis pathway. In addition, this strain is capable of detecting compounds with hydrophobic/surfactant activity and alternative mechanisms of cell wall disruption.

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...

Gametocyte-specific and all-blood-stage transmission-blocking chemotypes discovered from high throughput screening on Plasmodium falciparum gametocytes

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
High-throughput screening of 120,000 compounds followed by counter-screening and validation assays reveals candidate antimalarial drugs that kill Plasmodium falciparum sexual and asexual blood stages blocking parasite transmission through mosquito.

Epigenetic silencing of the liver‐specific lncRNA LUNAR promotes liver cancer progression via NOTCH activation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LUNAR is a liver‐specific long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) that is highly expressed in normal liver but becomes epigenetically silenced in hepatocellular carcinoma through promoter hypermethylation. Loss of LUNAR is associated with NOTCH activation, epithelial–mesenchymal transition, and metastasis, whereas restoring LUNAR restrains metastatic progression ...

Protocol to identify small molecules promoting rat and mouse cardiomyocyte proliferation based on the FUCCI and MADM reporters

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: Discovery of small molecules promoting cardiomyocyte proliferation is important for heart regeneration and related heart disease. Here, we describe a protocol to isolate neonatal rat and mouse cardiomyocytes, infect cardiomyocytes with Tnnt2-mAG-

Bridging the gap: a genetically validated avian chorioallantoic membrane platform for investigation of spontaneous circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We established the avian chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay as a scalable in vivo model for studying circulating tumor cells (CTCs). Human gastrointestinal tumors spontaneously released genetically validated CTCs that were detected across multiple platforms, demonstrating that the CAM model provides an accessible tool for investigating early cancer ...

Extracellular matrix remodeling and immune reprogramming drive residual tumor progression of liver cancer after incomplete microwave ablation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Incomplete microwave ablation (iMWA) of liver cancer triggers a biphasic progression in residual tumors. At Day 3, the microenvironment is characterized by acute inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. By Day 14, a profound shift occurs toward oncogenic signal transduction and immunosuppression, marked by macrophage ...
