Combined 5‐aminolevulinic acid and ferric ammonium citrate treatment promotes hair follicle growth by activating dermal papilla cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
5‐Aminolevulinic acid combined with ferric ammonium citrate (5‐ALA/FAC) stimulates dermal papilla cell activity and promotes hair follicle growth. The treatment enhances ERK and AKT signaling, increases hair‐inductive gene expression, and restores dermal papilla function suppressed by dihydrotestosterone and oxidative stress, resulting in enhanced hair

Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.

Translocation arrest by reversible folding of a precursor protein imported into mitochondria [PDF]

, 1989
Passage of precursor proteins through translocation contact sites of mitochondria was investigated by studying the import of a fusion protein consisting of the NH2-terminal 167 amino acids of yeast cytochrome b2 precursor and the complete mouse ...

Do post-translational and processing-born food protein modifications affect protein digestibility and their immune properties? [PDF]

, 2023
Protein post-translational modifications and those induced by food processing (PTMs) occur in many forms and can widely influence protein structure and behaviour. Yet, their structural and functional aspects in protein architecture are mainly overlooked.

Blood‐based proteomic profiling reveals context‐dependent changes in BCL2‐associated signaling during taxane therapy in breast cancer patients

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapy side effects significantly impact cancer survivors' quality of life. Using protein levels in blood samples from breast cancer patients before and after 12 weeks of taxane treatment, we detected treatment‐dependent changes in calcium signaling and aging pathways associated with cancer recurrence.

Protein Prenylation in Plants: Mechanisms and Functional Implications

Plants
Protein prenylation is a crucial post-translational modification that involves the formation of a covalent bond between isoprenoid lipids and the cysteine residues of specific proteins.

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.

Trafficking and localization of Golgi-resident N-glycan processing enzymes in plants

Frontiers in Plant Science
Asparagine (N)-linked glycosylation is a fundamental co- and post-translational modification of proteins, playing a crucial role in protein folding, stability and function, protein-protein interactions, biotic and abiotic stress response as well as ...

YIPFα1A expression is regulated by multilayered molecular mechanisms

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
YIPFα1A, a five‐pass Golgi protein, is regulated at multiple layers. (1) Rare‐codon enrichment drives translation‐coupled mRNA decay. (2) A proximal 3′‐UTR element stabilizes mRNA. (3) A distal 3′‐UTR element included by alternate poly(A) site usage represses translation, which can be overridden by the proximal 3′‐UTR element.

A preliminary study towards the construction of Carboxypeptidase Y - Legumin gene fusions to facilitate an analysis of protein sorting in yeast [PDF]

, 1987
In an attempt to isolate and clone the promotor and preprosequence of the yeast vacuolar protease carboxypeptidase Y, three, PRC-1-derived, Bsc I - Bam HI restriction fragments were ligated into a vector plasmid (pKS(^+)) and separately transformed into ...
