Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Heat shock protein A1L restricts influenza A virus by ubiquitination of NA

open access: yesJournal of Virology
Neuraminidase (NA) protein of influenza A virus (IAV), a tetrameric envelope glycoprotein critical for viral release and spread, has well-characterized enzymatic functions but poorly resolved host-pathogen interactions.

Damage-induced phosphorylation of Sld3 is important to block late origin firing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Origins of replication are activated throughout the S phase of the cell cycle such that some origins fire early and others fire late to ensure that each chromosome is completely replicated in a timely fashion.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Nucleocapsid protein captures DDX5 and RNMT facilitating viral RNA synthesis and viral protein translation for coronavirus replication

open access: yesmBio
Coronaviruses (CoVs) hijack host RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) to facilitate their replication, but the viral proteins and host RBDs that participate in the synthesis of viral RNA and protein are unclear.

Interferon-inducible protein SCOTIN interferes with HCV replication through the autolysosomal degradation of NS5A

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) nonstructural 5A (NS5A) protein is a critical factor for HCV RNA replication. Here the authors show that SCOTIN, an interferon beta-inducible host protein, functions to limit HCV replication by targeting viral protein NS5A for ...

DNA Copy-Number Control through Inhibition of Replication Fork Progression

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
Proper control of DNA replication is essential to ensure faithful transmission of genetic material and prevent chromosomal aberrations that can drive cancer progression and developmental disorders.

The respiratory syncytial virus nucleoprotein–RNA complex forms a left-handed helical nucleocapsid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is an important human pathogen. Its nucleocapsid (NC), which comprises the negative sense RNA viral genome coated by the viral nucleoprotein N, is a critical assembly that serves as template for both mRNA synthesis and ...

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Uncovering Flavivirus Host Dependency Factors through a Genome-Wide Gain-of-Function Screen

open access: yesViruses, 2019
Flaviviruses, such as dengue (DENV), West Nile (WNV), yellow fever (YFV) and Zika (ZIKV) viruses, are mosquito-borne pathogens that present a major risk to global public health. To identify host factors that promote flavivirus replication, we performed a
