Controllability of protein-protein interaction phosphorylation-based networks: Participation of the hub 14-3-3 protein family [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Posttranslational regulation of protein function is an ubiquitous mechanism in eukaryotic cells. Here, we analyzed biological properties of nodes and edges of a human protein-protein interaction phosphorylation-based network, especially of those nodes ...

Proteins, Processing, and Properties of Adhesive Fluid Condensates Purified from Mussels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mussels exhibit an unmatched proficiency for adhering to wet surfaces in salty environments—a remarkable ability that could inspire new biomedical and technical glues. The fluid protein condensates used to form the underwater mussel glue are extracted, reconstituted and characterized with advanced spectroscopy and nanomechanical analysis, revealing ...

Post-translational modifications as a key mechanism for herpes simplex virus type I evasion of host innate immunity

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) is a DNA virus that infects humans and establishes long-term latency within the host. Throughout its prolonged interaction with the host, HSV-1 evades the innate immune system by encoding its own proteins.

Post-translational modifications of EZH2 in cancer

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2020
Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), as a main component of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2, catalyzes histone H3K27me3 to silence its target gene expression. EZH2 upregulation results in cancer development and poor prognosis of cancer patients.

Understanding and Exploiting Post-Translational Modifications for Plant Disease Resistance

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Plants are constantly threatened by pathogens, so have evolved complex defence signalling networks to overcome pathogen attacks. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are fundamental to plant immunity, allowing rapid and dynamic responses at the ...

A mass spectrometry-guided genome mining approach for natural product peptidogenomics. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Peptide natural products show broad biological properties and are commonly produced by orthogonal ribosomal and nonribosomal pathways in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Amyloidogenic Peptide Fragments Designed From Bacterial Collagen‐like Proteins Form Hydrogel

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study identified amyloidogenic sequence motifs in bacterial collagen‐like proteins and exploited these to design peptides that self‐assemble into β‐sheet fibers and form hydrogels. One hydrogel supported healthy fibroblast growth, showing promise for biocompatible materials. Our work demonstrates that bacterial sequences can be harnessed to create

Turning the Knobs: The Impact of Post-translational Modifications on Carbon Metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Plants rely on the carbon fixed by photosynthesis into sugars to grow and reproduce. However, plants often face non-ideal conditions caused by biotic and abiotic stresses.

The physics of epigenetics

open access: yes, 2016
In higher organisms, all cells share the same genome, but every cell expresses only a limited and specific set of genes that defines the cell type. During cell division, not only the genome, but also the cell type is inherited by the daughter cells. This
