Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Loss of periactive-zone scaffold proteins does not enhance neurotransmission defects in cla-1(ΔL) mutants

microPublication Biology
Efficient synaptic transmission requires coordinated exocytosis and endocytosis at the active zone and adjacent periactive zone, but whether scaffold proteins from these two presynaptic compartments function cooperatively remains unclear.

Ligand‐dependent transcriptional heterogeneity in cell cycle gene expression delays G1/S entry

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
EGF and HRG induce distinct G1/S progression programs in ErbB2‐amplified BT474 breast cancer cells. Despite activating the potent ErbB2–ErbB3 heterodimer, HRG does not accelerate cell‐cycle entry. Instead, EGF promotes earlier restriction‐point passage via ERK–FOS signaling, whereas HRG activates the AKT–MYC axis, driving transcriptional heterogeneity ...

Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

FEBS 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.

An apparent lack of synergy between degradative enzymes against Staphylococcus aureus biofilms

microPublication Biology
Enzymes combat bacterial infections by degrading biomolecules to disperse Staphylococcus aureus biofilms. Commercial enzyme mixtures, like cellulase and pepsin, show concentration-dependent dispersion, but low concentrations lack synergy.

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Transgenerational Sterility of a Transgenic C. elegans: A Cautionary Tale

microPublication Biology
The integration of fluorescent protein tags (GFP, mScarlet, mNeon, etc) by CRISPR is often inefficient due to the size of the tags (hundreds of base pairs).
