Differential Diel Translation of Transcripts With Roles in the Transfer and Utilization of Iron-Sulfur Clusters in Arabidopsis

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters are evolutionarily ancient ubiquitous protein cofactors which have mostly catalytic functions but can also have structural roles.

Two-stage binding of mitochondrial ferredoxin-2 to the core iron-sulfur cluster assembly complex

Nature Communications
Iron-sulfur (FeS) protein biogenesis in eukaryotes begins with the de novo assembly of [2Fe-2S] clusters by the mitochondrial core iron-sulfur cluster assembly (ISC) complex.

Matrix metalloprotein-triggered, cell penetrating peptide-modified star-shaped nanoparticles for tumor targeting and cancer therapy

Journal of Nanobiotechnology, 2020
Background Specific targeting ability and good cell penetration are two critical requirements of tumor-targeted delivery systems. In the present work, we developed a novel matrix metalloprotein-triggered, cell-penetrating, peptide-modified, star-shaped ...

Hierarchically-structured metalloprotein composite coatings biofabricated from co-existing condensed liquid phases

Nature Communications, 2020
The mussel byssus cuticle is a wear-resistant and extensible metalloprotein composite. Here, the authors probed the cuticle nanostructure and composition before, during and after fabrication revealing a crucial role of metal-binding proteins that self ...

Immunization of mice with the self-peptide ACBP coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin

STAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) is a glycosylated multi-subunit metalloprotein that elicits a strong nonspecific immune activation, thus inducing both cellular and humoral immune responses.

Design of functional metalloproteins [PDF]

Nature, 2009
Metalloproteins catalyse some of the most complex and important processes in nature, such as photosynthesis and water oxidation. An ultimate test of our knowledge of how metalloproteins work is to design new metalloproteins. Doing so not only can reveal hidden structural features that may be missing from studies of native metalloproteins and their ...

Changing paradigms for the micronutrient zinc, a known protein cofactor, as a signal relaying also cellular redox state

Quantitative Plant Biology
The micronutrient zinc (Zn) is often poorly available but toxic when present in excess, so a tightly controlled Zn homoeostasis network operates in all organisms. This review summarizes our present understanding of plant Zn homoeostasis.

A novel secretory poly-cysteine and histidine-tailed metalloprotein (Ts-PCHTP) from Trichinella spiralis (Nematoda). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Trichinella spiralis is an unusual parasitic intracellular nematode causing dedifferentiation of the host myofiber. Trichinella proteomic analyses have identified proteins that act at the interface between the parasite and the host and are ...
