Derivatives of MOPS: promising scaffolds for SARS coronaviruses Macro domain‐targeted inhibition

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The SARS‐CoV/CoV‐2 genome encodes non‐structural protein 3, which contains a ‘Macro domain’. This protein domain exhibits antagonistic activity against interferon signaling, which disrupts the host innate immune response and can thus mediate viral escape, highlighting its therapeutic potential.

A steric gate prevents mutagenic dATP incorporation opposite 8‐oxo‐deoxyguanosine in mitochondrial DNA polymerases

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Reactive oxygen species induce mutagenic DNA lesions, such as 8‐oxo‐2′‐deoxyguanosine (8‐oxodG), which acts as a template for dCMP and dAMP incorporation through its anti and syn conformations. Specific residues must regulate the fidelity of templated 8‐oxodG.

Y12C mutation disrupts IMPDH cytoophidia and alters cancer metabolism

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
IMPDH, the rate‐limiting enzyme for de novo GTP synthesis, can form polymers and cytoophidia to enhance activity by reducing GTP inhibition. In this study, a Y12C mutation in IMPDH2 was introduced via ABEmax base‐editing in human cancer cell lines to disrupt IMPDH polymerisation.

Activation of a P2Y4-like purinoceptor triggers an increase in cytosolic [Ca2+] in the red blood cells of the lizard Ameiva ameiva (Squamata, Teiidae)

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2005
An increasing number of pathophysiological roles for purinoceptors are emerging, some of which have therapeutic potential. Erythrocytes are an important source of purines, which can be released under physiological and physiopathological conditions ...

Transcription‐coupled repair: tangled up in convoluted repair

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss recent findings derived from diverse genomic, biochemical and structural, imaging, and functional studies (B–E) that culminated in deep mechanistic insight (A) into the vital cellular process of transcription‐coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC‐NER).

DmdA‐independent lag phase shortening in Phaeobacter inhibens bacteria under stress conditions

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The lag phase is crucial for resuming bacterial growth and can be shortened by fueling the methionine cycle with methyl groups from DMSP or other methylated compounds. While DmdA is the primary DMSP demethylase in Phaeobacter inhibens, stress activates additional enzymes like Bmt. This enzymatic flexibility allows bacteria to exit the lag phase rapidly,
