Protein misfolding cyclic amplification

open access: yes, 2013
Prion diseases are caused by a conformational conversion of the cellular prion protein (PrPC) to a pathological conformer (PrPSc). The “prion-only” hypothesis suggests that PrPSc is the infectious agent that propagates the disease acting as a template ...

Mosaic activation of the zebrafish hsp70l heat shock promoter: Implications for interpreting transgenes

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The promoters and enhancers of heat shock genes, such as the 1.5‐kb promoter of the zebrafish hsp70l gene, are valuable tools for temporal activation of transgenes. It has been widely purported that heat shock treatments result in ubiquitous expression of hsp70l‐driven transgenes.

In vivo conformational space and defects of misfolded CFTR variants by covalent protein painting

open access: yesNature Communications
In vivo characterization of protein structures and structural changes after perturbation is still a major challenge and has impacted our understanding of the molecular events involved in protein misfolding diseases.

Computational protein stability analysis of SCN1A missense variants reveals domain‐dependent stability patterns

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To determine whether computational protein‐stability predictions discriminate pathogenic from benign SCN1A missense variants, and to characterize the structural distribution of predicted destabilization among pathogenic variants. Methods On an AlphaFold3‐predicted Nav1.1 structure, FoldX, and Rosetta Cartesian ΔΔG were computed for a

Human biomarker navigator

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
The Human Biomarker Navigator integrates the disease continuum, biomarker dynamics, cross‐organ biomarker networks, biomarker classification, and technology‐driven paradigms. It maps how biomarkers link multi‐system physiology and pathology across the nervous, respiratory, endocrine, circulatory, immune, digestive, urinary, reproductive, and ...

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...
