FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phototrophs evolved light‐harvesting systems adapted for efficient photon capture in habitats enriched in far‐red radiation. A subset of eukaryotic pigment‐binding proteins can absorb far‐red photons via low‐energy chlorophyll states known as red forms.

μ-calpain binds to lipid bilayers via the exposed hydrophobic surface of its Ca2+-activated conformation [PDF]
, 2006 μ- and m-calpain are cysteine proteases requiring micro- and millimolar Ca2+ concentrations for their activation in vitro. Among other mechanisms, interaction of calpains with membrane phospholipids has been proposed to facilitate their activation by ...

Mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation is stimulated by red light irradiation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Light at different wavelengths has distinct effects on keratinocyte viability and metabolism. UVA light abrogates metabolic fluxes. Blue and green light have no effect on metabolic fluxes, while red light enhanced oxidative phosphorylation by promoting fatty acid oxidation. Keratinocytes are the primary constituents of sunlight‐exposed epidermis.

Encapsulation of a polymer by an icosahedral virus
, 2010 The coat proteins of many viruses spontaneously form icosahedral capsids around nucleic acids or other polymers. Elucidating the role of the packaged polymer in capsid formation could promote biomedical efforts to block viral replication and enable use ...

Autoacylation of G Protein α Subunits [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1996 The palmitoylation or S-acylation of at least some G protein alpha subunits is a dynamic process that is regulated in vivo by the activation of associated receptors. Highly purified, myristoylated Gialpha1 and other G protein alpha subunits react spontaneously with palmitoyl-CoA in vitro to form thioesterified proteins.

Vacuolar transport and function of Saccharomyces cerevisiae sterol ester hydrolase Tgl1
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Tgl1, one of yeast sterol ester hydrolases, had been found on the lipid droplets where sterol esters are mainly stored. This study revealed that Tgl1 is transported into the vacuole depending on the ESCRT‐I–III complex, and that it exhibits intra‐vacuolar sterol ester hydrolase activity.

Picosecond time-resolved fluorescence of phycobiliproteins [PDF]
, 1990 The α- and β-subunits of C-phycocyanin from Mastigocladus laminosus were prepared according to revised procedures. Both subunits are isolated as dimers, which can be dissociated into monomers with detergent mixtures.
