The use of mutants and inhibitors to study sterol biosynthesis in plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
ABSTRACTSterols are very well known for their important roles in membranes and signaling in eukaryotes. Plants stand out among eukaryotes by the large variety of sterols that they can produce, and employing them across a wide spectrum of physiological processes.

N6‐Methyladenosine (m6A) in Liver Disease: Pathogenic Mechanisms and Therapeutic Potential

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accumulating evidence highlights the critical role of epigenetic modifications, particularly N6‐methyladenosine (m6A), in liver disease. As the most abundant RNA modification in eukaryotic cells, m6A is dynamically regulated by multicomponent m6A methyltransferases (e.g., METTL3 and METTL14), demethylases (FTO and ALKBH5), and m6A‐binding ...

SUMOylation regulates tumorigenesis and progression: Molecular mechanisms and therapeutic applications

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
SUMOylation, a dynamic post‐translational modification, acts as a master regulator at the heart of tumor malignancy. Our work delineates how the SUMOylation cycle—mediated by E1/E2/E3 enzymes and reversed by SENPs—orchestrates multiple hallmarks of cancer. The central pathway converges on three critical pathological axes: 1.

Deciphering the soybean root rot pathogen Phytophthora sojae: Signaling pathways, transcriptional regulation, and effector biology

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
This review highlights how Phytophthora sojae utilizes unconventional lineage‐specific signaling networks, including unique G protein‐coupled receptor fusions, expanded kinases, and rapidly evolving effectors, to infect soybeans. Understanding these divergent molecular paradigms reveals critical vulnerabilities in this destructive pathogen, offering ...

Branched‐Chain Amino and Keto Acids Reduce Hepatocyte Lipid Droplet Size and Number via Distinct Proteomic Pathways

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Branched‐chain amino acids (BCAA) and their corresponding keto acids (BCKA) have been associated with changes in hepatic lipid metabolism and the resulting alterations in intracellular triglyceride concentrations. In this study, we utilized a previously established hepatocyte model to investigate the impact of BCAA and BCKA supplementation on ...
