Regulation of CLC-1 chloride channel biosynthesis by FKBP8 and Hsp90β. [PDF]

, 2016
Mutations in human CLC-1 chloride channel are associated with the skeletal muscle disorder myotonia congenita. The disease-causing mutant A531V manifests enhanced proteasomal degradation of CLC-1.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Universal Stress Protein exhibits a redox-dependent chaperone function in Arabidopsis and enhances plant tolerance to heat shock and oxidative stress

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Although a wide range of physiological information on Universal Stress Proteins (USPs) is available from many organisms, their biochemical and molecular functions remain unidentified.

Overview of molecular signatures of senescence and associated resources: pros and cons

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cells can enter a stress response state termed cellular senescence that is involved in various diseases and aging. Detecting these cells is challenging due to the lack of universal biomarkers. This review presents the current state of senescence identification, from biomarkers to molecular signatures, compares tools and approaches, and highlights ...

Modulation of protein fate decision by small molecules: targeting molecular chaperone machinery

Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2020
Modulation of protein fate decision and protein homeostasis plays a significant role in altering the protein level, which acts as an orientation to develop drugs with new mechanisms.

Redox-regulated molecular chaperones [PDF]

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2002
The conserved heat shock protein Hsp33 functions as a potent molecular chaperone with a highly sophisticated regulation. On transcriptional level, the Hsp33 gene is under heat shock control; on posttranslational level, the Hsp33 protein is under oxidative stress control.

Antibiofilm activity of a chionodracine‐derived peptide by NMR‐based metabolomics of cell‐free supernatant of Acinetobacter baumannii clinical strains

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KHS‐Cnd peptide is able to impair biofilm formation and disaggregate mature biofilms in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. Differences in extracellular metabolites reflect changes in biofilm metabolism due to KHS‐Cnd treatment. Among the differentially represented extracellular metabolites upon KHS‐Cnd treatment, the significantly altered ...

Regulation of Protein Transport Pathways by the Cytosolic Hsp90s

Biomolecules, 2022
The highly conserved molecular chaperone heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is well-known for maintaining metastable proteins and mediating various aspects of intracellular protein dynamics. Intriguingly, high-throughput interactome studies suggest that Hsp90

Influence of Thermal Perturbation of the Oligomeric Size of -Crystallin on its Chaperone Function – A Biophysical Study [PDF]

, 2010
-Crystallin is the major protein component of the vertebrate eye lens and is composed of two subunits A- and B-, 20 kDa each having 57% sequence homology between them. Both subunits associate to form large oligomer of 800 kDa average molecular weight. It

Differential regulation of ZFAS1 splice variants by endoplasmic reticulum stress in hepatocyte cell lines

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ZFAS1 is a lncRNA promoting cell proliferation and migration, exhibiting high expression in various cancers. It is conserved, widely expressed, and produces multiple splice variants with unclear roles. We identified several splice variants in hepatocyte models, and found that inhibiting or suppressing regulators of the unfolded protein response (PERK ...
