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

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

The C‐terminal domain of yeast Arginyltransferase1 is essential for its catalytic activity

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Arginyltransferase 1 (Ate1), a eukaryotic enzyme, catalyses arginylation, transferring arginine from tRNA‐Arg to the amino terminus of the target protein. Overexpression of Ate1 in yeast is lethal and is dependent on arginylation. This study elucidates how mutations in the cofactor‐binding and active site of Ate1 and truncation of its structural ...

Protein Prenylation in Plants: Mechanisms and Functional Implications

open access: yesPlants
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.

TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 attenuates pulmonary fibroblast activation by suppressing mTOR and restoring autophagic flux

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TGF‐β1 stimulation downregulates lysosomal channel TRPML1 in pulmonary fibroblasts. The TRPML1 agonist ML‐SA5 suppressed fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast activation and collagen production. Mechanistically, ML‐SA5 inhibited mTOR phosphorylation, restored autophagic flux, and its effects were enhanced by rapamycin (mTOR inhibitor) and reversed by MHY1485 ...

Beta1 subunits enable fentanyl‐induced BK channel activation and opioid regulation of cerebral artery diameter

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
During the current opioid crisis, the majority of overdose deaths are attributed to ultra‐potent synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. While fentanyl exerts its action via opioid receptors, we propose that potassium channels in the brain blood vessels may also sense fentanyl.

Effect of arginine deficiency on arginine-dependent post-translational protein modifications in mice

open access: yes, 2005
Transgenic mice that overexpress arginase-I in their small-intestinal enterocytes suffer from a pronounced, but selective decrease in circulating arginine levels during the suckling period, resulting in impaired growth and development of hair, muscle and

Quantitative proteomic characterization of redox-dependent post-translational modifications on protein cysteines

open access: yes, 2017
Post-translational modifications on protein cysteines play a crucial role in redox signaling, in the regulation of enzymatic activity and protein function, and in maintaining redox homeostasis in living systems.
