The instability of stabilization [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012
Actin filaments and microtubules control the shape of cells and organize their contents. The proteins that form these cytoskeletal polymers were identified and isolated decades ago—actin in 1942 (1) and tubulin in 1968 (2)—but we still argue about some of their basic properties. New work from Niedermayer et al. (3), however, puts us on the right track,

The Role of Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Ataxia‐Telangiectasia

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Ataxia‐telangiectasia (A‐T) is a DNA repair disorder characterized by neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency, and cancer predisposition. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an established therapy in related disorders such as Fanconi anemia (FA) and Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS), but its role in A‐T is unclear.

Stylolite fractal characteristics and the influence of stylolite on strength of limestone

open access: yes工程科学学报, 2017
To study the fractal characteristics of stylolite and its influence on the strength of limestone, the fractal dimension of horizontal stylolite and vertical stylolite was analyzed using the power spectral density method and the digital image box ...

Integrated simulation and monitoring to analyze failure mechanism of the anti-dip layered slope with soft and hard rock interbedding

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining Science and Technology, 2023
The significant difference between the mechanical properties of soft rock and hard rock results in the complexity of the failure mode of the anti-dip layered slope with soft and hard rock interbedding.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Disruption of the β-catenin destruction complex via Ephexin1-Axin1 interaction promotes colorectal cancer proliferation

open access: yesExperimental and Molecular Medicine
Wnt signaling is essential for cell growth and tumor formation and is abnormally activated in colorectal cancer (CRC), contributing to tumor progression; however, the specific role and regulatory mechanisms involved in tumor development remain unclear ...

An unexpected alternative viologen electron mediator site in tungsten‐containing formate dehydrogenase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Cell Cycle Analysis of Candida albicans by Flow Cytometry

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2023
The cell cycle is a vital process of cell division that is required to sustain life. Since faithful cell division is critical for the proper growth and development of an organism, the study of the cell cycle becomes a fundamental research objective ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
