HIF1a-dependent mitophagy facilitates cardiomyoblast differentiation
Cell Stress, 2020 Mitophagy is thought to play a key role in eliminating damaged mitochondria, with diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration exhibiting defects in this process.

DeepPhos: prediction of protein phosphorylation sites with deep learning
Bioinform., 2019 Motivation Phosphorylation is the most studied post-translational modification, which is crucial for multiple biological processes. Recently, many efforts have been taken to develop computational predictors for phosphorylation site prediction, but most ...

PKCɛ switches Aurora B specificity to exit the abscission checkpoint
Nature Communications, 2016 The Aurora B abscission checkpoint is activated when DNA is retained in the cleavage furrow on completion of anaphase. Here the authors show that PKCɛ directly phosphorylates Aurora B triggering a switch in Aurora B substrate specificity to elicit ...

An Affinity-directed Protein Missile (AdPROM) System for Targeted Destruction of Endogenous Proteins
Bio-Protocol, 2017 We recently reported an Affinity-directed PROtein Missile (AdPROM) system for the targeted proteolysis of endogenous proteins of interest (POI) (Fulcher et al., 2016 and 2017).

The robustness of proofreading to crowding-induced pseudo-processivity in the MAPK pathway [PDF]
Biophys. J. 107, 2425--2435, 2014, 2014 Double phosphorylation of protein kinases is a common feature of signalling cascades. This motif may reduce cross-talk between signalling pathways, as the second phosphorylation site allows for proofreading, especially when phosphorylation is distributive rather than processive.

Positional information readout in $Ca^{2+}$ signaling [PDF]
Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 058102 (2019), 2017 Living cells respond to spatial signals. Signal transmission to the cell interior often involves the release of second messengers like $Ca^{2+}$ . They will eventually trigger a physiological response by activating kinases that in turn activate target proteins through phosphorylation. Here, we investigate theoretically how positional information can be

Robust circadian clocks from coupled protein modification and transcription-translation cycles [PDF]
P Natl Acad Sci Usa (2010) vol. 107 (52) pp. 22540-5, 2010 The cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus uses both a protein phosphorylation cycle and a transcription-translation cycle to generate circadian rhythms that are highly robust against biochemical noise. We use stochastic simulations to analyze how these cycles interact to generate stable rhythms in growing, dividing cells.
