Age Dependent Changes of Certain Peptide Hydrolases and Dehydrogenases in Bovine Dental Pulp

, 1969
The concentrations of certain peptide hydrolases and enzymes of the aerobic and anaerobic catabolic cycles in the fibroblasts of bovine dental pulp have been examined as a function of the developmental stage of the tissue.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

Oncogenic DMTF1β promotes cancer cell motility by regulating autophagy through ULK1 stabilization

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the current study, we demonstrate that the oncogene DMTF1β regulates ULK1 stability by reducing its proteasomal degradation in cancer cells. This stabilization enables ULK1 to induce autophagy, which in turn facilitates cancer cell migration. Consequently, reduced DMTF1β levels lead to decreased autophagy and impaired cancer cell migration.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor imaging for localization of insulinomas [PDF]

, 2009
The surgical removal of insulinomas is hampered by difficulties to localize it using conventional radiological procedures. Recently these tumors were shown to exhibit a very high density of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors (GLP-1R) in vitro that may be ...

ADP‐ribosylation: An emerging regulator of the epigenome

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
ADP‐ribosylation has emerged as a dynamic epigenetic signaling mechanism that modifies histones and chromatin‐associated proteins. Through coordinated PARylation and MARylation, it integrates with other histone modifications to regulate chromatin structure, transcription factor activity, and gene expression, influencing genome function and disease ...

Noncanonical Peloruside A Biosynthesis by an Uncultivated Verrucomicrobiota Symbiont

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Noncanonical biochemistry of the peloruside PKS characterized in this work, comprising double bond generation by a noncanonical tridomain (blue), acetyl‐CoA recycling (orange), and proofreading systems (purple and yellow). The Z‐double bond is installed by TEB1 through O‐acetylation and acetate elimination. The acyl ligase PelB (AL, orange) selectively

Natriuretic peptide receptors on rat thymocytes: Inhibition of proliferation by atrial natriuretic peptide. [PDF]

, 1996
Because the thymus expresses the natriuretic peptides (NP) as well as their respective receptors, an involvement of NP in the physiology of this organ has been suggested.

p190A/ARHGAP35 and p190B/ARHGAP5 proteins in endometrial cancer: a novel cancer‐relevant paralog interplay

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies ARHGAP5, in addition to the frequently mutated ARHGAP35, as significantly mutated in endometrial cancer. Mutations in both genes co‐occur and are associated with their correlated downregulation. Functional CRISPR studies show that both paralogs regulate similar pathways, including actin cytoskeleton organization.

Intermolecular Carbon–Carbon Naphthalene Coupling Involves a Radical Mechanism Driven by Cytochrome P450 in Alternaria alternata

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
1,8‐DHN is an important intermediate to form complex aromatic ring systems. Phenol‐coupling reactions are important for the dimerization of two molecules. Here, we show that a fungal cytochrome P450 enzyme catalyzes specific C─C bonds. ABSTRACT Dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) derivatives are precursors of biologically important molecules, including melanin ...
