Targeting protein–protein interactions with reversible covalent modalities: Non‐cysteine chemistries

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Protein–protein interactions (PPIs) are central to diverse cellular functions, and represent a rapidly expanding class of therapeutic targets. Advancements in covalent drug design have enabled small‐molecule drugs to overcome challenges associated with engaging these targets, such as limited durations of action and difficult‐to‐drug (expansive,

MYC Addiction as a Targetable Vulnerability in Nelarabine‐Resistant T‐Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
MYC drives nelarabine resistance in T‐ALL via a hyperactive transcriptional program. Pharmacological degradation of BET proteins dismantles this addiction, restoring drug sensitivity and extending survival in vivo. ABSTRACT Acquired resistance represents a fundamental obstacle limiting the long‐term efficacy of cancer chemotherapy.

Intrinsic specificity of a ‘core’ TIP60 acetyltransferase complex in Drosophila

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The intrinsic substrate selectivity of the Drosophila TIP60‐core acetyltransferase was determined using synthetic nucleosome arrays. Targeted mass spectrometry revealed site‐specific acetylation of histones H2A, H2A.V, and H4, uncovering distinct acetylation rates and patterns across individual lysines.

The competitive interplay of 12‐oxophytodienoic acid (OPDA), protein thiols, and glutathione

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
12‐Oxophytodienoic acid (OPDA) is a phytohormone involved in plant growth and stress defense. Due to its cyclopentenone moiety, OPDA can form Michael adducts with thiol‐containing compounds such as glutathione and cysteine residues of proteins, resulting in alterations of the cellular redox regulatory network.

Degradomics for large‐scale mechanistic insights on proteases and proteolysis in human health

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Proteolysis has an important role in human disease but remains relatively unexplored. Degradomics, the uncovering of proteolysis in tissues, cells, and proteins, uses mass spectrometry‐based terminomics to identify protein termini occurring therein (forward degradomics) and to define the actions of proteases (reverse degradomics).

Post‐transcriptional regulatory networks: The dynamic interplay of RNA‐binding proteins

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Post‐transcriptional gene expression regulation is controlled by RNA‐binding proteins (RBPs), which influence many processes including splicing, localization, translation, and decay. Rather than acting alone, RBPs bind RNAs combinatorially, forming complex, context‐dependent regulatory networks.

Spatially resolved mapping of histones reveals selective neuronal response in Rett syndrome

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Loss of Mecp2 function is associated with Rett syndrome (RTT). MeCP2 regulates chromatin, yet its influence on histone composition and dynamics is unclear. Combining MALDI‐MSI with LCM–LC–MS/MS, we mapped histone proteoforms across the dentate gyrus, cornu ammonis, and cerebellum in two mouse models of RTT.

Biogenesis of TNF‐α‐insights into proteostasis and inflammation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
TNF‐α biogenesis, trafficking, and signalling are tightly and reciprocally coupled to cellular proteostasis systems, including ER chaperones and endoplasmic reticulum‐associated degradation. This bidirectional crosstalk determines whether TNF‐α responses are adaptive or proteotoxic.

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...
