Emerging experimental and computational methods for studying redox‐regulated structural transitions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Redox reactions can reshape proteins and alter how they behave in cells, with important consequences for health and disease. This review explores emerging experimental and computational approaches for discovering these redox‐sensitive protein switches, revealing their structural effects, and predicting their behavior, opening new opportunities to ...

The cross-species prediction of bacterial promoters using a support vector machine

, 2008
Due to degeneracy of the observed binding sites, the in silico prediction of bacterial σ-like promoters remains a challenging problem. A large number of σ-like promoters has been biologically identified in only two species, Escherichia coli and Bacillus ...

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.

Functional analysis of promoter element 2 within the viral polymerase gene of an emerging paramyxovirus, Sosuga virus

Microbiology Spectrum
Paramyxovirus genomes carry bipartite promoters at the 3′ ends of both their genome and antigenome, thereby initiating RNA synthesis, which requires the viral polymerase to recognize two elements: the primary promoter element 1 (PE1) and the secondary ...

Transient expression of the enhanced green fluorescence protein (egfp) gene in Tetraselmis subcordiformis (Chlorodendrales, Chlorophyta) with three exogenous promoters

, 2016
A stable transformation system for Tetraselmis subcordiformis had been established, but a low transformation rate limits its application to this alga.

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Functional comparison of EncB and EncC cargo proteins in iron storage within the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Encapsulins are protein nanocompartments that play an important role in iron storage. In the Myxococcus xanthus encapsulin system, two cargo proteins called EncB and EncC contribute to iron mineralization. Here, we show that EncB and EncC generate iron‐containing minerals with distinct chemical compositions, suggesting that the composition of stored ...

Modulation of Oxygen Vacancies on Cu/ZnO by Promoter for Higher Alcohol Synthesis From Syngas

ChemistryOpen
The influence of promoters on oxygen vacancies (Ovs) within CuZn catalysts is crucial for optimizing CO hydrogenation to higher alcohols (C2+OH). The CuZn catalysts were successfully prepared with controlled Ovs concentrations via a fully liquid‐phase ...

Characterization of the VOC Promoter That Is Active Under Low-Salinity Conditions in the Diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum

Marine Drugs
Microalgae such as Phaeodactylum tricornutum are promising cell biofactories for the production of high-value molecules, including monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). However, to date, the production of mAbs in P.
