Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Functional processing and secretion of Chikungunya virus E1 and E2 glycoproteins in insect cells [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a mosquito-borne, arthrogenic Alphavirus that causes large epidemics in Africa, South-East Asia and India. Recently, CHIKV has been transmitted to humans in Southern Europe by invading and now established Asian ...

Modifications and Trafficking of APP in the Pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s Disease

Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2017
Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the most common neurodegenerative disorder, is the leading cause of dementia. Neuritic plaque, one of the major characteristics of AD neuropathology, mainly consists of amyloid β (Aβ) protein.

Research progress of Nedd4L in cardiovascular diseases

Cell Death Discovery, 2022
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are a covalent processing process of proteins after translation. Proteins are capable of playing their roles only after being modified, so as to maintain the normal physiological function of cells.

Carboxyl-terminal Targeting and Novel Post-translational Processing of JAW1, a Lymphoid Protein of the Endoplasmic Reticulum [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1996
Jaw1 is a lymphoid-restricted protein localized to the cytoplasmic face of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and is a member of a recently recognized class of integral membrane proteins that contain carboxyl-terminal membrane anchors. The carboxyl-terminal 71 amino acids of the Jaw1 protein, which contain a hydrophobic membrane spanning region, are ...

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Impairing the production of ribosomal RNA activates mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 signalling and downstream translation factors [PDF]

, 2014
Ribosome biogenesis is a key process for maintaining protein synthetic capacity in dividing or growing cells, and requires coordinated production of ribosomal proteins and ribosomal RNA (rRNA), including the processing of the latter.

Defying Death: A Multi-Omics Approach to Understanding Desiccation Tolerance and Senescence in Eragrostis nindensis

Plants
Eragrostis nindensis is a resurrection grass capable of surviving near-complete desiccation. We compared non-senescent leaf tissue (NST) and senescent leaf tissue (ST) to investigate the cellular and molecular basis of desiccation tolerance and ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
