Structural basis of Gip1 for cytosolic sequestration of G protein in wide-range chemotaxis

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Gip1 sequesters heterotrimeric G proteins in the cytosolic pool which regulates G protein-coupled receptor signalling for eukaryotic chemotaxis. Here the authors provide the crystal structure of Gip1's G protein-binding region and show that mutations in ...

Identification of TCR repertoires in functionally competent cytotoxic T cells cross-reactive to SARS-CoV-2

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Kanako Shimizu et al. identify HLA-A24 high-binding epitopes in the SARS-CoV-2 spike region and investigate their cross-reactivity with CD8+ T cell receptors.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Exploring Protein Sequence Space Using Computationally Directed Recombination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Evolution has provided us with many protein sequences. However, these sequences represent a very small fraction of the possible sequences. In the laboratory, scientists have explored areas of sequence space not represented by natural proteins both to ...

3DDPDs: Describing protein dynamics for proteochemometric bioactivity prediction. A case for (mutant) G protein-coupled receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Proteochemometric (PCM) modelling is a powerful computational drug discovery tool used in bioactivity prediction of potential drug candidates relying on both chemical and protein information.

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...
