A conserved tripeptide sorts proteins to peroxisomes
Journal of Cell Biology, 1989 The firefly luciferase protein contains a peroxisomal targeting signal at its extreme COOH terminus (Gould et al., 1987). Site-directed mutagenesis of the luciferase gene reveals that this peroxisomal targeting signal consists of the COOH-terminal three ...

Biomaterial design strategies for enhancing mitochondrial transplantation therapy
BMEMat, EarlyView.Biomaterials to facilitate mitochondrial transplantation therapy: biomaterials as barriers to protect mitochondria from pathophysiological microenvironments, like osmotic stress caused by the excessive concentration of calcium ion, reactive oxygen species, and advanced glycation end products; biomaterials integrating with biochemical cues to improve ...

Purification of Peroxisomes Using a Density Barrier in a Swinging-Bucket Rotor
The Scientific World Journal, 2002 In iodixanol, peroxisomes are the densest organelle in the light mitochondrial fraction and are therefore easily separated from the other components (lysosomes, mitochondria, etc.) in a preformed isosmotic continuous gradient.

Peroxisome biogenesis and peroxisome biogenesis disorders
FEBS Letters, 2000 Peroxisome assembly in mammals requires more than 15 genes. Two isoforms of the peroxisome targeting signal type 1 (PTS1) receptor, Pex5pS and Pex5pL, are identified in mammals. Pex5pS and Pex5pL bind PTS1 proteins. Pex5pL, but not Pex5pS, directly interacts with the PTS2 receptor, Pex7p, carrying its cargo PTS2 protein in the cytosol.

Force stimulation promotes nerve regeneration by restoring cellular energy
BMEMat, EarlyView.Mechanical stimulation can help nerves regenerate in various ways. We developed two devices (a piezo‐motor‐driven stretching device and a SAW‐based actuator) to apply mechanical stimulation to sciatic nerve and DRG neurons. Our study shows that appropriate mechanical force stimulation can promote regeneration by restoring the energy supply to the ...

BMEMat, EarlyView.Multifunctional nano‐networks (NNWs) are prepared via reaction‐induced self‐assembly (RISA) of spermidine (SPD), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), 2‐formylphenylboronic acid (2‐FPBA), and deferoxamine (DFO) through dynamic iminoboronate bonds. These NNWs leverage the oxidative AKI microenvironment to trigger disintegration, enabling site‐specific ...
