Protein aggregation and neurodegeneration [PDF]

open access: yesMethods, 2011
In 1997 Carrell and Lomas put forth the concept that many disorders, which appeared to be unlinked, arose from the same general mechanism that involved the abnormal unfolding and aggregation of various underlying proteins [1]. The flux of proteins through pathways for formation of amyloid-like aggregates was proposed to be the mechanism for ...

Protein aggregation in silico [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Biotechnology, 2007
Protein aggregation is a challenge to the successful manufacture of protein therapeutics; it can impose severe limitations on purification yields and compromise formulation stability. Advances in computer power, and the wealth of computational studies pertaining to protein folding, have facilitated the development of molecular simulation as a tool to ...

Single-molecule techniques for mapping protein aggregates

open access: yes, 2023
Proteins in our body are usually folded to carry out their physiological functions. However, they can become misfolded and aggregated throughout the lifetime of a cell.

Glutamine Synthetase 1 Increases Autophagy Lysosomal Degradation of Mutant Huntingtin Aggregates in Neurons, Ameliorating Motility in a Drosophila Model for Huntington’s Disease

open access: yesCells, 2020
Glutamine Synthetase 1 (GS1) is a key enzyme that catalyzes the ATP-dependent synthesis of l-glutamine from l-glutamate and is also member of the Glutamate Glutamine Cycle, a complex physiological process between glia and neurons that controls glutamate ...

Mutational probing of protein aggregates to design aggregation‐resistant proteins [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2016
Characterization of amorphous protein aggregates may offer insights into the process of aggregation. Eleven single amino acid mutants of lipase (LipA of Bacillus subtilis) were subjected to temperature‐induced aggregation, and the resultant aggregates were characterized for recovery of activity in the presence of guanidinium chloride (GdmCl).

Protein aggregates in Huntington's disease [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Neurology, 2012
Huntington's disease (HD) is an incurable neurodegenerative disease characterized by abnormal motor movements, personality changes, and early death. HD is caused by a mutation in the IT-15 gene that expands abnormally the number of CAG nucleotide repeats.
