Dual targeting of the UPS and autophagy as a novel therapy for neurodegenerative proteinopathies
Frontiers in Cellular NeuroscienceNeurodegenerative proteinopathies are characterized by impaired protein clearance and the accumulation of misfolded or aggregated proteins, ultimately leading to neuronal death.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

One-dimensional SDS-Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (1D SDS-PAGE)
, 2014 This protocol describes a denaturing polyacrylamide gel system utilizing sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) to separate protein molecules based on size as first described by Laemmli (1970). SDS-PAGE can be used to monitor protein purifications, check the purity of samples, and to estimate molecular weights for unknown proteins.

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...
