Puromycin-induced kidney injury and subsequent regeneration in adult zebrafish

open access: yesAnimal Cells and Systems, 2023
Puromycin treatment can cause glomerular injury to the kidney, leading to proteinuria. However, the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury and subsequent regeneration after puromycin administration in animal models remain unclear.

Structure-guided selection of puromycin N-acetyltransferase mutants with enhanced selection stringency for deriving mammalian cell lines expressing recombinant proteins

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Puromycin and the Streptomyces alboniger-derived puromycin N-acetyltransferase (PAC) enzyme form a commonly used system for selecting stably transfected cultured cells.

Effects of tacrolimus on autophagy protein LC3 in puromycin-damaged mouse podocytes

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2020

Bifunctional Protein Conferring Enhanced Green Fluorescence and Puromycin Resistance

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2001
A new genetic marker was created in which sequences from enhanced green fluorescent protein were fused to those of puromycin N-acetyl transferase. The resulting fusion protein (EGFP-puro) conferred both green fluorescence and resistance to puromycin when

The science of puromycin: From studies of ribosome function to applications in biotechnology

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2020
Puromycin is a naturally occurring aminonucleoside antibiotic that inhibits protein synthesis by ribosome-catalyzed incorporation into the C-terminus of elongating nascent chains, blocking further extension and resulting in premature termination of ...

Investigation of protein synthesis in Drosophila larvae using puromycin labelling

open access: yesBiology Open, 2017
Translational control of gene expression is an important regulator of growth, homeostasis and aging in Drosophila. The ability to measure changes in protein synthesis in response to genetic and environmental cues is therefore important in studying these ...

Visualisation of in vivo protein synthesis during mycobacterial infection through [68Ga]Ga-DOTA-puromycin µPET/MRI

open access: yesScientific Reports
Radiolabelled puromycin analogues will allow the quantification of protein synthesis through nuclear medicine-based imaging. A particularly useful application could be the non-invasive longitudinal visualisation of mycobacterial activity through direct ...

Rapid cell type-specific nascent proteome labeling in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Controlled protein synthesis is required to regulate gene expression and is often carried out in a cell type-specific manner. Protein synthesis is commonly measured by labeling the nascent proteome with amino acid analogs or isotope-containing amino ...

The Mechanism of Resistance to Puromycin and to the Puromycin-precursor O-Demethyl-puromycin in Streptomyces alboniger [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology, 1985
Ribosomes from Streptomyces alboniger are sensitive in vitro to puromycin and, to a lesser extent, to the puromycin-precursor O-demethyl-puromycin. The puromycin-inactivating enzyme (puromycin N-acetyltransferase) from S. alboniger also N-acetylates O-demethyl-puromycin.

Elongation inhibitors do not prevent the release of puromycylated nascent polypeptide chains from ribosomes

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Puromycin is an amino-acyl transfer RNA analog widely employed in studies of protein synthesis. Since puromycin is covalently incorporated into nascent polypeptide chains, anti-puromycin immunofluorescence enables visualization of nascent protein ...
