Characterization of fungal carbonyl sulfide hydrolase belonging to clade D β‐carbonic anhydrase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Here, we performed a functional analysis of the fungal enzymes belonging to clade D of the β‐class carbonic anhydrase family (β‐D‐CA). The β‐D‐CAs in the basidiomycete Gloeophyllum trabeum and the ascomycete Trichoderma harzianum showed very low activity in the hydration of CO2 but exhibited high activity in the hydrolysis of carbonyl sulfide (COS ...

Phenotypic diversity in mutagenized population of urdbean (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper)
Heliyon, 2021 The present study was conducted to assess the extent of induced genetic variability and to determine the inheritance pattern of various yield contributing phenotypic traits in M2 and M3 generations of urdbean following mutagenesis with single and ...

Somatic mutations in human ageing: New insights from DNA sequencing and inherited mutations [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 The accumulation of somatic mutations is a driver of cancer and has long been associated with ageing. Due to limitations in quantifying mutation burden with age in non-cancerous tissues, the impact of somatic mutations in other ageing phenotypes is unclear.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The glacier ice worm Mesenchytraeus solifugus survives year‐round at 0 °C. Its ATP6 subunit, which forms a regulatory component of the proton pore in mitochondrial ATP synthase, has a carboxy‐terminal extension not found in any other organism examined to date. Here, we show that fusion of this extension to the homologous AtpB protein in E. coli results

Timing the initiation of multiple myeloma
Nature Communications, 2020 The initial mutational processes and how these lead to progression in multiple myeloma (MM) are unclear. Here, the authors identify mutational signatures that occur over time in a large cohort of MM patients and suggest features that may help in early ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In modular polyketide synthases, the dehydratase (DH) domain catalyzes the dehydration reaction of the β‐hydroxyacyl unit attached to the cognate acyl carrier protein (ACP) domain. However, it is unclear how DH interacts with ACP during the reaction. In this study, we identified DH–ACP interface residues, providing the first detailed insights into DH ...

Mutational landscape of yeast mutator strains [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014 Significance Deficiencies in genome maintenance genes (so-called mutator genes) result in increased mutagenesis that impacts cell evolvability. How the mutational processes drive the evolution of genome structure is not well understood. Here, we used high-throughput sequencing to characterize the mutation events (from punctual mutations to ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 6 (LRP6) is a key receptor for the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf1 (DKK1). DKK1 protein expression is induced in a bleomycin (BLM)‐induced lung injury model. We show that DKK1 induces proinflammatory and profibrotic genes in lung fibroblasts.
