Structure‐Guided Optimization of PDE9A Inhibitors Tackling Neuroinflammation: A Combined Computational and In Vitro Study

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 17, 14 September 2026.
Computational studies allowed the identification of a PDE9A inhibitor. A novel HPLC‐based assay was developed and optimized to measure enzyme function to assess PDE9A inhibition. Furthermore, in vitro tests supported the activity of the compound against neuroinflammation. Oxidative stress and inflammation are key players in central nervous system (CNS)

Inclusion of PF68 Surfactant Improves Stability of rAAV Titer when Passed through a Surgical Device Used in Retinal Gene Therapy

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2020
Recent advances in recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) gene therapy for choroideremia show gene replacement to be a promising approach. It is, however, well known that contact of vector solution with plastic materials in the surgical device may ...

Double Prenylation by RabGGTase Can Proceed without Dissociation of the Mono-prenylated Intermediate [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2001
Rab geranylgeranyltransferase (RabGGTase) catalyzes the prenylation of Rab proteins. Despite possessing a single active site, RabGGTase is able to add geranylgeranyl moieties onto each of the two C-terminal cysteine residues of Rab. We have studied the kinetics of Rab double prenylation employing a combination of a novel high pressure liquid ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2564-2578, September 2026.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Early-Stage Biosynthesis of Phenalinolactone Diterpenoids Involves Sequential Prenylation, Epoxidation, and Cyclization [PDF]

open access: yes
The chemical logic associated with assembly of many bacterial terpenoids remains poorly understood. We focused our efforts on the early-stage biosynthesis of the phenalinolactone diterpenoids, demonstrating that the anti/anti/syn-perhydrophenanthrene ...

Radiation‐Induced Tumor‐Intrinsic LTβR N‐Glycosylation Suppresses Pyroptosis Through TRIM28‐Mediated PCBP2 SUMOylation to Promote Gastric Cancer Radioresistance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 51, 14 September 2026.
Radiotherapy triggers LTβR N‐glycosylation, enhancing its overall protein stability and nuclear retention. This accumulation drives TRIM28‐mediated PCBP2 SUMOylation, suppressing pyroptosis and conferring gastric cancer radioresistance. Therapeutically, a targeted nanoplatform (cRGD‐Lipo@EMD) effectively disrupts this regulatory axis, offering a highly

Structure, regulation and cellular functions of Rab geranylgeranyl transferase and its cellular partner Rab Escort Protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Rab geranylgeranyl transferase is an enzyme responsible for double geranylgeranylation of Rab proteins in all eukaryotic cells. In the present article we would like to focus on new findings concerning the holoenzyme structure and mechanism of catalytic ...
