The peptidyl prolyl cis/trans isomerase Pin1/Ess1 inhibits phosphorylation and toxicity of tau in a yeast model for Alzheimer’s disease

AIMS Molecular Science, 2015
Since hyperphosphorylation of protein tau is a crucial event in Alzheimer’s disease, additional mechanisms besides the interplay of kinase and phosphatase activities are investigated, such as the effect of the peptidyl prolyl cis/trans isomerase Pin1 ...

Lifelong evolution of autoreactive plasma cell numbers, affinity and anatomical location in arthritic K/BxN mice

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective The spontaneous K/BxN mouse model of rheumatoid arthritis has been used extensively to study chronic inflammation, contribution of immune cells, and the primordial role of autoreactive antibodies in disease initiation and severity. Only the ubiquitous enzyme glucose‐6‐phosphate isomerase (GPI) is the target of IgG autoantibodies secreted by ...

Plasma Proteomics Identifies TAOK3 as a Potential Biomarker of Rheumatoid Arthritis Activity and a Novel Therapeutic Target

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Bone destruction associated with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) remains a major therapeutic challenge, with a lack of reliable molecular markers reflecting bone injury. This study aims to identify novel biomarkers linked to bone destruction in active RA through proteomic analysis, providing new strategies for precise monitoring and targeted

Mapping molluscan endocrinology: a systematic and critical appraisal

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Historically, a vertebrate‐centric paradigm has framed our interpretation of molluscan endocrinology, with considerable research focusing on vertebrate‐type steroid hormones (e.g. oestrogens, testosterone). However, contradictory evidence on the occurrence of vertebrate‐type steroid hormones in molluscan tissues, and a lack of the specific ...

Safety evaluation of the food enzyme xylose isomerase from the genetically modified Streptomyces rubiginosus strain DP‐Pzn37

EFSA Journal, 2020
The food enzyme is a d‐xylose aldose‐ketose‐isomerase (EC 5.3.1.5) produced with the genetically modified Streptomyces rubiginosus strain DP‐Pzn37 by Danisco US Inc. Although the production strain contains antibiotic resistance genes, the food enzyme was

Catalytic Amyloids: Turning Fibrils Into Biocatalysts

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Amyloids, traditionally associated with diseases, have emerged as versatile catalytic scaffolds. From natural amyloid sequences to bioinspired and de novo designs, we highlight strategies to construct catalytic active sites and anchor enzymes onto fibrils, creating versatile nanomaterials with tunable activities. ABSTRACT Amyloids have been regarded as

Exercise‐specific plasma proteomic signatures in racehorses: Candidates for training adaptation and peak load monitoring

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Racehorses undergo profound physiological changes with training and competition, but current biomarkers inadequately capture the complex molecular dynamics of exercise. This study aimed to identify novel plasma biomarkers of training adaptation and peak load using high‐throughput proteomics.
