Bacterial Outer Membrane Vesicles in Potentiating Cancer Vaccines: Progress and Prospects

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) have emerged as versatile platforms for cancer vaccine development owing to their intrinsic immunostimulatory properties and high engineering flexibility. This review summarizes OMV biology, immune mechanisms, and engineering strategies that enhance vaccine efficacy, discusses key translational challenges, and ...

Fatty acylation of proteins

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Reviews on Biomembranes, 1989
The various biosynthetic modifications of proteins, as for instance the addition of oligosaccharides, phosphate groups and fatty acid chains have become an important area of study in the biomedical sciences. Especially in a time where cloned eukaryotic genes are expressed in bacterial (or other alien) systems yielding non-modified protein products for ...

PIK3CA Mutations Downregulate PPT1 to Promote Adipogenesis by Suppressing P300 Depalmitoylation and Phase Separation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that somatic PIK3CA mutations suppress PPT1 expression via activation of the PI3K–AKT–c‐JUN axis. This reduction in PPT1 weakens its interaction with P300, thereby increasing palmitoylation at C1176 of P300 and protecting P300 from lysosomal degradation.

Acylated proteins in Acholeplasma laidlawii [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1985
The covalent modification of membrane proteins by long-chain fatty acids was determined in two strains of Acholeplasma laidlawii by one-dimensional gel electrophoresis of radiolabeled membranes. Of the more than 50 membrane polypeptides detected, approximately 30 were labeled with [3H]palmitate, whereas covalent binding of [3H]oleate to membrane ...

The enzyme activity of mitochondrial trifunctional protein is not altered by lysine acetylation or lysine succinylation.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Mitochondrial trifunctional protein (TFP) is a membrane-associated heterotetramer that catalyzes three of the four reactions needed to chain-shorten long-chain fatty acids inside the mitochondria.

Molecularly Engineered Phenoxazinone‐Skeleton Cascade‐Activated NIR Probes for Monitoring Fe2+/Viscosity in Ferroptosis‐Mediated Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A series of Fe2+/viscosity cascade‐activated NIR fluorescence probes (NP1–5) are synthesized, and NP3 is selected for its optimal properties. To verify application of NP3 in ferroptosis intervention in PD, PQR NPs, is constructed by NP3 and quercetin self‐assembling.

Acyl Carrier Protein in Mycoplasmas [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1973
Acyl carrier protein (ACP) activity was determined by the malonyl-coenzyme A–CO 2 exchange reaction. It was highest in Acholeplasma laidlawii , lower in A. granularum , and lowest in A. axanthum . The sterol-requiring Mycoplasma

Ferroptosis: The Demise of Cells Through Phospholipid Peroxidation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The relative abundance of peroxidation‐resistant monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) vs. peroxidation‐sensitive polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) incorporated into phospholipid (PL) is a key determinant of ferroptosis sensitivity, as the peroxidation of PL PUFA acyl chains (PUFA‐PL) disrupts membrane integrity, causing ferroptotic cell death ...

Trapping of the Enoyl-Acyl Carrier Protein Reductase–Acyl Carrier Protein Interaction [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2016
An ideal target for metabolic engineering, fatty acid biosynthesis remains poorly understood on a molecular level. These carrier protein-dependent pathways require fundamental protein-protein interactions to guide reactivity and processivity, and their control has become one of the major hurdles in successfully adapting these biological machines.
