Protein disulfide isomerases – a way to tackle malaria
Protein disulfide isomerases (PDIs) ensure that specific substrate proteins are correctly folded. PDI activity plays an essential role in malaria transmission. Here we provide an overview of the role of PDIs in malaria-causing Plasmodium parasites and outline why PDI inhibition could be a novel way to treat malaria and prevent transmission.

ABSTRACT Top‐down proteomics (TDP) characterizes proteoforms in cells, tissues, and biofluids, in discovery mode and on a global scale, requiring analytical tools with high peak capacity for proteoform separation and high sensitivity for proteoform detection, given the extremely high proteoform complexity and wide proteoform concentration dynamic range.

Inactivation of mammalian Ero 1α is catalysed by specific protein disulfide isomerases [PDF]
Disulfide formation within the endoplasmic reticulum is a complex process requiring a disulfide exchange protein such as protein disulfide isomerase and a mechanism to form disulfides de novo.

Multiple protein disulfide isomerases support thrombosis [PDF]
Purpose of review The present review provides an overview of recent findings on new members of the protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family required for thrombosis. Recent findings Twenty years ago PDI was shown to mediate platelet aggregation, and 10 years ago PDI was shown to ...

Abstract Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) occurs when the protein‐folding capacity of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is overwhelmed, triggering the unfolded protein response (UPR) to restore homeostasis. However, severe or persistent ERS can shift the UPR toward pro‐inflammatory, apoptotic, and fibrotic signaling, thereby exacerbating tissue injury ...

Expression of Functional Human Sialyltransferases ST3Gal1 and ST6Gal1 in Escherichia coli.
Sialyltransferases (STs) are disulfide-containing, type II transmembrane glycoproteins that catalyze the transfer of sialic acid to proteins and lipids and participate in the synthesis of the core structure oligosaccharides of human milk.

Inhibition of thiol isomerase activity diminishes endothelial activation of plasminogen, but not of protein C [PDF]
Highlights •A range of thiol isomerase enzymes were expressed by HMEC-1 endothelial cells. •Inhibition of thiol isomerases reduced plasminogen activation on HMEC-1 cells.

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.
