Trajectories of genetic risk across dimensions of alcohol use behaviors

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Alcohol use behaviors (AUBs) manifest in a variety of normative and problematic ways across the life course, all of which are heritable. Twin studies show that genetic influences on AUBs change across development, but this is usually not considered in research identifying and investigating the genes linked to AUBs ...

PI(4,5)P2-dependent microdomain assemblies capture microtubules to promote and control leading edge motility [PDF]

open access: yes
The lipid second messenger PI(4,5)P2 modulates actin dynamics, and its local accumulation at plasmalemmal microdomains (rafts) might mediate regulation of protrusive motility.

Plant organelle C‐to‐U RNA editing factors can operate successfully in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) as an easily amenable eukaryotic system for their functional analysis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Plant‐type pentatricopeptide repeat proteins capable of C‐to‐U RNA editing perform faithfully when expressed in a new heterologous system, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. They were tested with constitutive and inducible expression and with a set of different solubility tags. PPR56, PPR65, and PPR78 from P.

Engineering 2‐Pyrone‐4,6‐Dicarboxylic Acid Production Reveals Metabolic Plasticity of Poplar

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Woody biomass is a promising source of fermentable sugars for biofuels and bio‐based chemicals, but its industrial use is limited by the costly biorefinery process. A viable strategy to reduce costs involves enhancing both biomass processability and the generation of high‐value co‐products.

Phosphatidylinositol-4,5 Bisphosphate Produced by PIP5K(gamma) Regulates Gelsolin, Actin Assembly, and Adhesion Strength of N-Cadherin Junctions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Phosphoinositides regulate several actin-binding proteins but their role at intercellular adhesions has not been defined. We found that phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) was generated at sites of N-cadherin–mediated intercellular adhesion

Do anionic phospholipids serve as cofactors or second messengers for the regulation of activity of cloned ATP-sensitive K+ channels? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The regulation of ion channels by anionic phospholipids is currently very topical. An outstanding issue is whether phosphatidylinositol 4,5-diphosphate and related species act as true second messengers in signaling or behave in a manner analogous to an ...

Tobamoviruses CP Proteins Hijack Light‐Induced Protein (NbLIP1) to Promote Viral Replication by Facilitating VRO Formation

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tobamoviruses establish viral replication organelles (VROs) on the host endoplasmic reticulum (ER) for their replication, a process demanding substantial different types of lipids. However, how viruses efficiently transfer these lipids from other compartments like chloroplasts remains incompletely understood.

Plasma membrane and nuclear phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate signalling in cancer

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease
The development of metastasis is a leading cause of cancer-related death that involves specific changes in the plasma membrane (PM) and nucleus of cancer cells.

Soybean Inositol Polyphosphate 5‐Phosphatase 8 Confers Salt Tolerance by Reducing Sodium Influx Through Inositol 1,4,5‐Trisphosphate Signalling

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Evidence suggests that the metabolism of inositol and its derivatives may be involved in various biological processes including salt tolerance, but there has been limited understanding. Ectopic expression of Gs5PTase8, an inositol polyphosphate 5‐phosphatase cloned from wild soybean (Glycine soja), significantly enhanced salt tolerance in ...

Myosin 7a is required for maintaining the transducing stereocilia and for force transmission to the MET channel during cochlear hair cell development

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Developmental changes in the hair‐bundle structure of outer hair cells (OHCs) and inner hair cells (IHCs) were examined in control and shaker‐1 mutant (Myo7aSh1/Sh1) mice, which carry a spontaneous missense mutation in the Myo7a gene that produces a non‐functional MYO7A protein.
