Pattern recognition receptors and the inflammasome in kidney disease [PDF]
, 2014 Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain receptors (NLRs) are families of pattern recognition receptors that, together with inflammasomes, sense and respond to highly conserved pathogen motifs and endogenous molecules ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.An unexpected alternative interaction site for ethyl viologen was identified in formate dehydrogenase 1 from Methylorubrum extorquens. Combined mutagenesis, kinetic analysis, and docking revealed that aromatic residues near an iron–sulfur cluster enable flavin mononucleotide‐independent electron transfer, offering a framework for engineering improved ...

Electron transfer between complexes III and IV in S. cerevisiae mitochondrial membranes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in S. cerevisiae mitoplasts is limited by complex IV catalytic capacity, rather than two‐dimensional cytochrome c diffusion. At physiological cytochrome c : supercomplex ratios at salinity equivalent to that of 20 mm monovalent salt, activity is maximized, indicating that this low ionic strength accurately mimics

Role of pattern recognition receptors in Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection
International Journal of Mycobacteriology, 2015 Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) is considered a major worldwide health problem with 10 million new cases diagnosed each year. The present understanding of TB immunology has become greater and more refined since the identification of Mycobacterium ...

Mechanisms of allorecognition and xenorecognition in transplantation
Clinical Transplantation and ResearchForeign antigen recognition is the ability of immune cells to distinguish self from nonself, which is crucial for immune responses in both invertebrates and vertebrates.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Pattern Recognition Receptors in Drosophila
, 2003 The foundation of the innate immune system is the recognition of infectious non-self. Janeway (1,2) has proposed that this recognition is mediated by the binding of host pattern recognition proteins to pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). PAMPs were originally defined as structures found on the surfaces of microorganisms but not present on ...

Activation of host pattern recognition receptors by viruses [PDF]
, 2010 Viral recognition by the host innate immune system has become an exciting and growing area of research focus in recent years. It is now apparent that multiple pattern recognition receptor (PRR) families, including Toll-like receptors (TLRs), RIG-I-like ...
