Lipoylation Mechanism of P. Falciparum Mitochondrial Proteins [PDF]

open access: bronzeBiophysical Journal, 2015
Lipoate is an essential cofactor for the aerobic metabolism in oxidative decarboxylation reactions of 2-oxoacid complexes. Malaria parasite survival is highly dependent on scavenging this essential cofactor from the human host. Scavenged lipoate is subsequently attached to the α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (KDH), the branched chain α-ketoacid ...

Dysregulation of Different Modes of Programmed Cell Death in Rheumatoid Arthritis Fibroblast-Like Synoviocyte. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Rheum Dis
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 ...

Cuproptosis key gene FDX1 is a prognostic biomarker and associated with immune infiltration in glioma

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Recent studies have found that the protein encoded by the FDX1 gene is involved in mediating Cuproptosis as a regulator of protein lipoylation and related to immune response process of tumors.

Lipoylation of Acyltransferase Components of α-Ketoacid Dehydrogenase Complexes [PDF]

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
Lipoic acid is a prosthetic group of the acyltransferase components of the pyruvate, alpha-ketoglutarate, and branched chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase complexes, protein X of the eukaryotic pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, and H-protein of the glycine cleavage system.

An Essential Role of Mitochondrial α-Ketoglutarate Dehydrogenase E2 in the Basal Immune Response Against Bacterial Pathogens in Tomato

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Plants intensely modulate respiration when pathogens attack, but the function of mitochondrial respiration-related genes in plant–bacteria interaction is largely unclear.

FDX1 inhibits thyroid cancer malignant progression by inducing cuprotosis

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Cuprotosis is a recently identified cell death form that caused by intracellular copper accumulation and regulated by FDX1. This work aimed to explore the role of cuprotosis and the pivotal regulatory gene FDX1 in thyroid cancer development.

AKT1 Phosphorylates FDX1 to Promote Cuproptosis Resistance in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
This study demonstrates that copper activates the AKT signaling pathway, which inhibits ferredoxin‐1 (FDX1), a key regulator of cuproptosis. AKT1‐mediated FDX1 phosphorylation not only abrogates FDX1‐induced cuproptosis and aerobic respiration but also promotes glycolysis.

Novel insights into the Thaumarchaeota in the deepest oceans: their metabolism and potential adaptation mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Marine Group I (MGI) Thaumarchaeota, which play key roles in the global biogeochemical cycling of nitrogen and carbon (ammonia oxidizers), thrive in the aphotic deep sea with massive populations.

Molecular mechanisms of mitochondrial de novo [2Fe-2S] cluster formation and lipoyl biosynthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Iron-sulfur (Fe/S) clusters are small inorganic protein cofactors found in almost all known organisms. They enable various protein functions including electron transfer and catalysis and are integral to numerous essential biological processes like ...
