Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Effect of hypoalbuminemia on drug pharmacokinetics

Frontiers in Pharmacology
Hypoalbuminemia, defined as serum albumin levels below 35 g/L, is common in patients with conditions such as nephrotic syndrome, cirrhosis, or sepsis. This review examines the impact of hypoalbuminemia on the pharmacokinetics of selected drugs—such as ...

The major transcriptional regulatory protein of herpes simplex virus type 1 includes a protease resistant DNA binding domain [PDF]

, 1990
Herpes simplex virus type 1 expresses five immediateearly (IE) polypeptides. In the absence of functional Vmw175 (the product of IE gene 3) activation of transcription of later classes of viral genes and repression of IE gene expression does not occur ...

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

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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

Pre-hybridisation: an efficient way of suppressing endogenous biotin-binding activity inherent to biotin–streptavidin detection system [PDF]

, 2014
Endogenous biotin or biotinylated protein binding activity is a major drawback to biotin-avidin/streptavidin detection system. The avidin/streptavidin conjugate used to detect the complex of the biotinylated secondary antibody and the primary antibody ...

The anti‐CRISPR protein AcrIE8.1 inhibits the type I‐E CRISPR‐Cas system by directly binding to the Cascade subunit Cas11

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we present the structure of AcrIE8.1, a previously uncharacterized anti‐CRISPR protein that inhibits the type I‐E CRISPR‐Cas system. Through a combination of structural and biochemical analyses, we demonstrate that AcrIE8.1 directly binds to the Cas11 subunit of the Cascade complex to inhibit the CRISPR‐Cas system.

Anti-phospholipase A2 receptor antibodies directly induced podocyte damage in vitro

Renal Failure, 2022
Background The pathogenesis of primary membranous nephropathy (MN) involves the antibodies against antigens on the cell surface of podocytes, with the majority of M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R), and a profound podocyte dysfunction.

Identifying Interaction Sites in "Recalcitrant" Proteins: Predicted Protein and Rna Binding Sites in Rev Proteins of Hiv-1 and Eiav Agree with Experimental Data [PDF]

, 2005
Protein-protein and protein nucleic acid interactions are vitally important for a wide range of biological processes, including regulation of gene expression, protein synthesis, and replication and assembly of many viruses.

Molecular principles underlying dual RNA specificity in the Drosophila SNF protein [PDF]

, 2018
The first RNA recognition motif of the Drosophila SNF protein is an example of an RNA binding protein with multi-specificity. It binds different RNA hairpin loops in spliceosomal U1 or U2 small nuclear RNAs, and only in the latter case requires the ...

How proteins bind macrocycles [PDF]

Nature Chemical Biology, 2014
The potential utility of synthetic macrocycles (MCs) as drugs, particularly against low-druggability targets such as protein-protein interactions, has been widely discussed. There is little information, however, to guide the design of MCs for good target protein-binding activity or bioavailability.
