USP4‐Dependent CHAF1B Stabilization Regulates Distinct SETDB1 Ubiquitin States Linked to AKT T308 Signaling and Lipogenic Remodeling in HCC

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
USP4 stabilizes CHAF1B by limiting K48‐linked ubiquitination. Stabilized CHAF1B supports UHRF1‐associated K63‐linked SETDB1 ubiquitination and cytoplasmic redistribution, whereas CHAF1B loss favors VHL‐dependent K11‐associated degradative ubiquitination and proteasomal loss of SETDB1.

Molecular Cloning, Characterization, and Functional Analysis of Acetyl-CoA C-Acetyltransferase and Mevalonate Kinase Genes Involved in Terpene Trilactone Biosynthesis from Ginkgo biloba

Molecules, 2017
Ginkgolides and bilobalide, collectively termed terpene trilactones (TTLs), are terpenoids that form the main active substance of Ginkgo biloba. Terpenoids in the mevalonate (MVA) biosynthetic pathway include acetyl-CoA C-acetyltransferase (AACT) and ...

Lack of Prenylated Proteins, Autophagy Impairment and Apoptosis in SH-SY5Y Neuronal Cell Model of Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2017
Background/Aims: Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency (MKD), is a hereditary disease due to mutations in mevalonate kinase gene (MVK). MKD has heterogeneous clinical phenotypes: the correlation between MVK mutations and MKD clinical phenotype is still to be ...

MicroRNA-874 targets phosphomevalonate kinase and inhibits cancer cell growth via the mevalonate pathway

Scientific Reports, 2022
The microRNA (miR) miR-874, a potential tumour suppressor, causes cell death via target gene suppression in various cancer types. Mevalonate pathway inhibition also causes cell death in breast cancer.

ATP Citrate Lyase in Metabolic Disease: Mechanistic Insights and Clinical Potential

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ATP citrate lyase (ACLY) is a central metabolic hub that diverts mitochondrial citrate to fuel de novo lipogenesis, cholesterol biosynthesis, and protein acetylation. Given its robust correlation with pathological changes in multiple human diseases, ACLY inhibitors featuring distinct pharmacological strengths have been developed for therapeutic ...

Identification of an Active Site Alanine in Mevalonate Kinase through Characterization of a Novel Mutation in Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1997
Sequencing of polymerase chain reaction-amplified cDNAs from cultured cells of three patients with mevalonate kinase deficiency revealed a G --> A transversion at nucleotide 1000 of the coding region, converting alanine to threonine at position 334 (A334T).

The genetic landscape of congenital diarrheas and very early onset inflammatory bowel disease in the Middle East

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Monogenic causes of congenital diarrheas and enteropathies (CoDE) and very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEOIBD) are mostly recessive and therefore more prevalent in populations with increased consanguinity rates. To assess the genetic basis of these disorders in a likely high‐prevalence population, we established a multi ...
