Engineered bacterial lipoate protein ligase A (lplA) restores lipoylation in cell models of lipoylation deficiency. [PDF]
Protein lipoylation, a vital lysine post-translational modification, plays a crucial role in the function of key mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid cycle enzymatic complexes. In eukaryotes, lipoyl post-translational modification synthesis occurs exclusively through de novo pathways, relying on lipoyl synthesis/transfer enzymes, dependent upon ...

Mitochondrial lipoylation integrates age-associated decline in brown fat thermogenesis [PDF]
Thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue (BAT) declines with age; however, what regulates this process remains poorly understood. Here, we identify mitochondria lipoylation as a previously unappreciated molecular hallmark of aged BAT in mice.

A Deep Clinical and Biochemical Characterization of a Patient With Combined Malonic and Methylmalonic Aciduria (CMAMMA). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Combined malonic and methylmalonic aciduria (CMAMMA) is an inborn error of metabolism caused by a deficiency in mitochondrial malonyl‐CoA synthetase, the enzyme responsible for activating malonic acid (MA) to malonyl‐CoA, a precursor of lipoic acid.

Dysregulation of Different Modes of Programmed Cell Death in Rheumatoid Arthritis Fibroblast-Like Synoviocyte. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by chronic synovitis and skeletal joint deformities, often accompanied by systemic symptoms. Over the past few decades, various susceptibility factors for RA have been revealed, and numerous therapeutic drugs have been developed, including analgesics, glucocorticoids ...

Tumor glucose reprogramming suppresses cuproptosis: A review. [PDF]
Cuproptosis is a copper-dependent form of regulated cell death that begins when ferredoxin 1 (FDX1) reduces Cu²⁺ to Cu¹⁺, allowing the ion to bind lipoylated enzymes of the tricarboxylic-acid (TCA) cycle, drive protein aggregation, dismantle iron–sulphur

A unique lipoylation system in the Archaea [PDF]
Members of the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase multienzyme complex family play a key role in the pathways of central metabolism. Post-translational lipoylation of the dihydrolipoyl acyltransferase component of these complexes is essential for their activity, the lipoyllysine moiety performing the transfer of substrates and intermediates between the different ...
