Structures of the scanning and engaged states of the mammalian SRP-ribosome complex

open access: yeseLife, 2015
The universally conserved signal recognition particle (SRP) is essential for the biogenesis of most integral membrane proteins. SRP scans the nascent chains of translating ribosomes, preferentially engaging those with hydrophobic targeting signals, and ...

Early steps in mitochondrial protein import [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
The process of insertion of precursor proteins into mitochondrial membranes was investigated using a hybrid protein (pSc1-c) that contains dual targeting information and, at the same time, membrane insertion activity.

Targeted protein degradation by Trim-Away using cell resealing coupled with microscopic image-based quantitative analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
“Trim-Away” technology enables rapid degradation of endogenous proteins without prior modification of protein-coding genes or mRNAs through delivery of antibodies that target proteins of interest.

DNA Vaccines Encoding Antigen Targeted to MHC Class II Induce Influenza-Specific CD8+ T Cell Responses, Enabling Faster Resolution of Influenza Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Current influenza vaccines are effective but imperfect, failing to cover against emerging strains of virus and requiring seasonal administration to protect against new strains. A key step to improving influenza vaccines is to improve our understanding of

The anaphase promoting complex impacts repair choice by protecting ubiquitin signalling at DNA damage sites

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The choice between homologous recombination and non-homologous end-joining is largely influenced by cell cycle. Here the authors show that APCCdh1 promotes homologous recombination by removing USP1, allowing polyubiquitinated histones to recruit BRCA1.

High confidence proteomic analysis of yeast LDs identifies additional droplet proteins and reveals connections to dolichol synthesis and sterol acetylation[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2014
Accurate protein inventories are essential for understanding an organelle's functions. The lipid droplet (LD) is a ubiquitous intracellular organelle with major functions in lipid storage and metabolism.

Identification of New Degrons in Streptococcus mutans Reveals a Novel Strategy for Engineering Targeted, Controllable Proteolysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Recently, controllable, targeted proteolysis has emerged as one of the most promising new strategies to study essential genes and otherwise toxic mutations.

Insights Into the Peroxisomal Protein Inventory of Zebrafish

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Peroxisomes are ubiquitous, oxidative subcellular organelles with important functions in cellular lipid metabolism and redox homeostasis. Loss of peroxisomal functions causes severe disorders with developmental and neurological abnormalities.

Targeted Antithrombotic Protein Micelles [PDF]

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, 2014
AbstractActivated platelets provide a promising target for imaging inflammatory and thrombotic events along with site‐specific delivery of a variety of therapeutic agents. Multifunctional protein micelles bearing targeting and therapeutic proteins were now obtained by one‐pot transpeptidation using an evolved sortase A.

Allo-network drugs: Extension of the allosteric drug concept to protein-protein interaction and signaling networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Allosteric drugs are usually more specific and have fewer side effects than orthosteric drugs targeting the same protein. Here, we overview the current knowledge on allosteric signal transmission from the network point of view, and show that most ...
