Self-organization of intrinsically disordered proteins with folded N-termini [PDF]
Thousands of human proteins lack recognizable tertiary structure in most of their chains. Here we hypothesize that some use their structured N-terminal domains (SNTDs) to organise the remaining protein chain via intramolecular interactions, generating ...

ABSTRACT Nitrooxidative stress, driven by excess reactive nitrogen species like peroxynitrite, contributes to the pathogenesis of many chronic diseases. Among its molecular footprints, 3‐nitrotyrosine (3NT) has emerged as a biologically relevant marker of protein nitration.

Multiomics Insights Into AL Amyloidosis
ABSTRACT Light chain amyloidosis is a systemic or localized protein conformational disorder triggered by misfolded immunoglobulin light chains, leading to amyloid fibril deposition. The disease is characterized by multiorgan involvement and delayed diagnosis, contributing to poor prognosis and high mortality rates.

Abstract Background Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation (NBIA) is a heterogeneous group of heritable, mostly recessive, progressive neurodegenerative diseases characterized by iron deposition in the basal ganglia and brainstem. There are no solid global epidemiological data on prevalence and incidence of NBIA subtypes, but registry data and ...

SPG4 Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia: From Etiology to Therapy
Abstract Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) comprise a heterogeneous group of heritable neurodegenerative disorders resulting from mutations in a wide variety of genes. HSP locomotor symptoms include lower limb weakness and spasticity that arise from progressive degeneration of corticospinal axons projecting from the motor cortex to the distal ...

Parkinson's Disease and Retinal Age Gap: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis
Abstract Background Deep‐learning models are capable of predicting age from retinal scans and the difference between this and chronological age, retinal age gap, has been shown to be significantly associated with risk of mortality, cardiovascular diseases, and kidney failure.

Prediction of Prion Proteins in E. coli Based on Bimodal Sequence Characteristics
ABSTRACT Prions are infectious proteins that bear misfolded conformations capable of converting folded states into misfolded aggregates under physiologically relevant conditions. In mammals, prions cause deadly maladies including Creutzfeldt‐Jakob and chronic wasting disease. To date, several prion proteins have been identified in eukaryotes, primarily
