pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Odorous and pungent attributes of mixed and unmixed odorants [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 1990 In order to explore functional properties of the olfactory and common chemical senses as well as their relation to the total nasal sensation experienced, various concentrations of two pungent odorants were presented alone and in the presence of different backgrounds of the other irritant. Stimuli comprised formaldehyde (at 1.0, 3.5, 6.9, and 16.7 ppm),

Odor-triggered activity patterns in OB and LEC of neonatal mouse. [PDF]
, 2019 (A) Characteristic LFP traces (band-pass filtered 1–100 Hz) recorded in OB (top) and LEC (bottom) of a P9 mouse before (baseline, left) and after application of odors (saline, middle; octanal, right) displayed together with simultaneously recorded MUA ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

Odorant-sensing cell micropatterns for odor discrimination
Biosensors and Bioelectronics: X, 2023 A technology that can effectively distinguish between various odorants with high sensitivity and selectivity has numerous applications ranging from water quality testing to disease diagnosis. Here, we report a cell-based odorant-sensing display that utilizes Sf21 cells expressing odorant receptors, co-receptors, and a calcium-sensitive fluorescent ...
