Ferroptosis inducers enhanced cuproptosis induced by copper ionophores in primary liver cancer
Introduction Cuproptosis and ferroptosis are the two newly defined metal-related regulated cell death. However, the crosstalk between cuproptosis and ferroptosis is obscure.

Redox‐dependent lipoylation of mitochondrial proteins in
SummaryLipoate scavenging from the human host is essential for malaria parasite survival. Scavenged lipoate is covalently attached to three parasite proteins: the H‐protein and the E2 subunits of branched chain amino acid dehydrogenase (BCDH) and α‐ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (KDH). We show mitochondrial localization for the E2 subunits of BCDH and KDH,

Protein-Interaction Affinity Gradient Drives [4Fe–4S] Cluster Insertion in Human Lipoyl Synthase
Human lipoyl synthase (LIAS) is an enzyme containing two [4Fe-4S] clusters (named FeSRS and FeSaux) involved in the biosynthesis of the lipoyl cofactor. The mechanism by which a [4Fe-4S] cluster is inserted into LIAS has thus far remained elusive. Here we show that NFU1 and ISCA1 of the mitochondrial iron-sulfur cluster assembly machinery, via forming ...

Ilipo-pseaac: Identification of lipoylation sites using statistical moments and general pseaac
Lysine Lipoylation is a protective and conserved Post Translational Modification (PTM) in proteomics research like prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is connected with many biological processes and closely linked with many metabolic diseases.

CHAPTER 1.1. Disulfide Bonds in Protein Folding and Stability [PDF]
Disulfide bonds are unique among post-translational modifications, as they add covalent crosslinks to the polypeptide chain. Accordingly, they can exert pronounced effects on protein folding and stability. This is of particular importance for secreted or

Expression, Lipoylation and Structure Determination of Recombinant Pea H‐Protein in Escherichia coli [PDF]
A synthetic gene encoding the entire mature H protein of the glycine decarboxylase complex from pea (Pisum sativum L.) was constructed and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant H protein, which after the induction period constituted more than half of the E. coli protein, was found in a soluble form.

Lipidomic Analysis of Plastidial Octanoyltransferase Mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana
Plant de novo fatty acid synthesis takes place in the plastid using acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) as the main precursor. This first intermediate is produced from pyruvate through the action of the plastidial pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDH), which ...

Cuproptosis predicts the risk and clinical outcomes of lung adenocarcinoma
Copper is an essential microelement for the body and a necessary coregulator for enzymatic reactions, yet an unbalanced copper level promotes reactive oxidation and cytotoxicity, which ultimately induces cell death.

Mitochondrial lipoylation integrates age-associated decline in brown fat thermogenesis [PDF]
Thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue (BAT) declines with age; however, what regulates this process is poorly understood. Here, we identify mitochondrial lipoylation as a previously unappreciated molecular hallmark of aged BAT in mice.
