The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Response regulation in bacterial chemotaxis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cellular Biochemistry, 1993
AbstractThe signal transduction system that mediates bacterial chemotaxis allows cells to moduate their swimming behavior in response to fluctuations in chemical stimuli. Receptors at the cell surface receive information from the surroundings. Signals are then passed from the receptors to cytoplasmic chemotaxis components: CheA, CheW, CheZ, CheR, and ...

Fluctuations in Intracellular CheY-P Concentration Coordinate Reversals of Flagellar Motors in E. coli

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Signal transduction utilizing membrane-spanning receptors and cytoplasmic regulator proteins is a fundamental process for all living organisms, but quantitative studies of the behavior of signaling proteins, such as their diffusion within a cell, are ...

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Characterization of two co-regulated response regulators in Clostridioides difficile

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology
As an obligate anaerobe, Clostridioides difficile grows exclusively in the host intestinal tract, necessitating mechanisms to sense and respond to the gut environment.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Genome-wide identification and functional characterization of the two-component system gene family in petunia reveals roles in hormone signaling and stress response

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
The two-component system (TCS) regulates key processes in plant growth, development, and stress response. Although TCS genes have been studied in model plants such as Arabidopsis and tomato, in petunia (Petunia axillaris), a model ornamental species ...

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.

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.
