Phosphoinositide Regulation of Inward Rectifier Potassium (Kir) Channels

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2014
Inward rectifier potassium (Kir) channels are integral membrane proteins charged with a key role in establishing the resting membrane potential of excitable cells through selective control of the permeation of K+ ions across cell membranes,.

Great Expectations for PIP: Phosphoinositides as Regulators of Signaling During Development and Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Phosphoinositides function as signaling precursors as well as regulators and scaffolds of signaling molecules required for important cellular processes such as membrane trafficking.

Membrane‐Active Peptide Protects Against Inflammation by Targeting NLRP3 Activation at the Trans‐Golgi Network

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The membrane‐active peptide Pep19‐2.5 reduces harmful inflammation by blocking activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome at trans‐Golgi network membranes. By targeting key membrane interactions, Pep19‐2.5 suppresses inflammatory IL‐1β production and alleviates allergic airway inflammation in mice, leading to reduced immune cell infiltration and improved ...

Redistribution of Endosomal Membranes to the African Swine Fever Virus Replication Site

open access: yesViruses, 2017
African swine fever virus (ASFV) infection causes endosomal reorganization. Here, we show that the virus causes endosomal congregation close to the nucleus as the infection progresses, which is necessary to build a compact viral replication organelle ...

The ubiquitous phosphoinositides

open access: yes, 2004
There are now known to exist seven phosphoinositides all derived through various metabolic routes from the parent lipid phosphatidylinositol. With one additional metabolite, diacylglycerol, these represent a rich resource of bioactive lipids responsible ...

EDNRA Forms a Positive Feedback Loop with the Hippo/YAP Axis to Drive Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Progression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Endothelin receptor type A (EDNRA) and the Hippo/YAP pathway form a self‐reinforcing loop that sustains triple‐negative breast cancer. EDNRA activates YAP through Gαq/11–Rho/ROCK–LATS signaling, while YAP/TEAD4 reciprocally drives EDNRA transcription.

Voltage sensitive phosphatases: emerging kinship to protein tyrosine phosphatases from structure-function research

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2015
The transmembrane protein Ci-VSP from the ascidian Ciona intestinalis was described as first member of a fascinating family of enzymes, the voltage sensitive phosphatases (VSPs). Ci-VSP and its voltage-activated homologs from other species are stimulated

Soft Hypoxia‐Adaptive Bioelectronics Integrating PEDOT:PSS/Polydopamine/Enzyme Biocomposites for Closed‐Loop Therapeutics of Chronic Wounds

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Hypoxia‐adaptive bioelectronics based on poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)/polydopamine (PDA)/enzyme biocomposites couple O2‐centric biosensing with embedded O2 therapy to address oxygen‐deficient chronic wounds. Local O2 provision restores enzyme‐based metabolite sensing, while catalase‐mediated oxygen generation and

Lysophospholipid acyltransferases and leukotriene biosynthesis: intersection of the Lands cycle and the arachidonate PI cycle[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2019
Leukotrienes (LTs) are autacoids derived from the precursor arachidonic acid (AA) via the action of five-lipoxygenase (5-LO). When inflammatory cells are activated, 5-LO translocates to the nuclear membrane to initiate oxygenation of AA released by ...

Erythrocyte band 3 protein strongly interacts with phosphoinositides. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
85% of the phosphorus coisolated with band 3 protein during separation of the intrinsic proteins of the human erythrocyte membrane by zonal electrophoresis in high concentrations of acetic acid was found to be derived from phosphoinositides, mainly ...
