A Xanthine Derivative With Novel Heat Shock Protein 90‐Alpha Inhibitory and Senolytic Properties

open access: yesAging Cell, EarlyView.
This study aimed to find safe senolytic drugs that selectively eliminate senescent cells. Focusing on HSP90 inhibitors, we employed a virtual screening to identify novel, safer compounds (A). K5, a xanthinic candidate, effectively eliminated senescent cells in various cellular models (B), extended lifespan in flies, and reduced aging signs in mice (C).

Identification and structural characterization of a novel acetyl xylan esterase from Aspergillus oryzae

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A novel acetyl xylan esterase was discovered from Aspergillus oryzae. The deacetylase activity toward wheat arabinoxylan increased synergistically with xylanase addition. The crystal structure exhibited hybrid features between two α/β‐hydrolase families, highlighting its structural uniqueness.

Shifting the substrate scope of dimeric pyranose oxidase from monosaccharide to glycoside preference through oligomeric state modification

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pyranose oxidase (POx) and C‐glycoside oxidase (CGOx) are FAD‐dependent oxidoreductases that share the same sequence space. POxs with a higher oligomerization state exclusively catalyze the oxidation of monosaccharides, whereas monomeric POxs/CGOxs show preference towards glycosides. We engineered the dimeric POx from Kitasatospora aureofaciens (KaPOx)

Structure predictions of MuRF1‐UBE2 complexes identify amino acid residues governing interaction selectivity for each MuRF1‐E2 pair

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
MuRF1 is a major regulator of muscle atrophy, a side effect of chronic pathologies. As a RING‐type E3, MuRF1 depends on E2 enzymes to synthesize ubiquitin chains on substrates. MuRF1 can interact with four E2 enzymes, suggesting different physiological functions depending on the MuRF1‐E2 pair.
