Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

Hydrogen-Bond-Induced Emission of Carbon Dots for Wash-Free Nucleus Imaging

open access: yes, 2019
Carbon dots (CDs) are emerging as powerful tools for biosensing and bioimaging because of their intrinsic properties such as abundant precursors, facile synthesis, high biocompatibility, low cost, and particularly robust tunability and stability. In this

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 ...

Enantioselective 2‑Alkylation of 3‑Substituted Indoles with Dual Chiral Lewis Acid/Hydrogen-Bond-Mediated Catalyst

open access: yes, 2016
A chiral-at-metal bis-cyclometalated iridium complex combines electrophile activation via metal coordination with nucleophile activation through hydrogen bond formation.

L‐aspartate oxidase provides new insights into fumarate reduction in anaerobic darkness in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Synechocystis strains deficient in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) secrete more succinate than the WT under dark anaerobic conditions, supporting that SDH then primarily acts as SDH, not as a fumarate reductase. L‐aspartate oxidase (Laspo) from Synechocystis is functional under anaerobic conditions, reducing fumarate to succinate.

The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

SOLITONS IN HYDROGEN-BONDED CHAINS

open access: yesLe Journal de Physique Colloques, 1988
A one dimensional model for hydrogen bonded chains is investigated by including the dynamical degrees of freedom of the oxygens and thus generalizing the original Antonchenko-Davydov-Zolotaryuk model. Analytical solutions are derived within a continuum approximation up to second order so that rather narrow solutions could be derived accurately enough ...

Hydrogen-Bond-Controlled Formal Meta-Selective C–H Transformations and Regioselective Synthesis of Multisubstituted Aromatic Compounds

open access: yes, 2019
The meta-selective introduction of functional groups into aromatic substrates was successfully achieved by hydrogen-bond-controlled meta-selective C–H borylation and successive conversion of the boryl group to other functional groups.

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
