Effects of deletions in the central helix of calmodulin on enzyme activation and peptide binding. [PDF]
Journal ArticleUsing site-directed mutagenesis we have expressed in Escherichia coli three engineered calmodulins (CaM) containing deletions in the solvent-exposed region of the central helix.

Modulation of PGC-1α activity as a treatment for metabolic and muscle-related diseases [PDF]
Physical inactivity is a predisposing factor for various disease states including obesity, cardiovascular disease, as well as for certain types of cancer. Regular endurance exercise mediates several beneficial effects such as increased energy expenditure

NAD+ regeneration by mitochondrial complex I NADH dehydrogenase is important for cancer cell proliferation. Specifically, NAD+ is necessary for the activities of NAD+‐dependent deacetylases SIRT3 and SIRT7, which suppress the expression of p21Cip1 cyclin‐dependent kinase inhibitor, an antiproliferative molecule, at the translational and transcriptional

Primary extranodal diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma: Molecular features, treatment, and prognosis
One‐third of DLBCL arises from extranodal organs and is challenging to manage. Molecular features are critical to elucidate the differences in clinical features, predict the disease prognosis, and improve effective targeted therapeutic strategies. Abstract Diffuse large B‐cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma and ...

MD and EPR studies of the structure and dynamics of the MTSL spin-labelled activation loop of the Aurora-A kinase [PDF]
The understanding of kinase structure is mostly based on protein crystallography, which is limited by the requirement to trap molecules within a crystal lattice. Therefore, characterisations of the conformational dynamics of the activation loop in solution are important to enhance the understanding of molecular processes related to diseases and to ...

In molecular cancer diagnostics, comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) is going to replace the small NGS panels since it provides all clinically relevant somatic variants as well as genomic biomarkers with clinical value. Here, we compared two CGP assays and demonstrate that the choice for diagnostic implementation will depend on the specific ...

NAD+ biosynthesis ameliorates a zebrafish model of muscular dystrophy.
Muscular dystrophies are common, currently incurable diseases. A subset of dystrophies result from genetic disruptions in complexes that attach muscle fibers to their surrounding extracellular matrix microenvironment.
