Substrate selectivity of human histidine methyltransferase METTL9
Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Methylation of histidine residues in zinc transporters by histidine methyltransferase METTL9 plays an important role in modulating their metal‐binding properties. Here, we report synthetic, enzymatic, and computational studies on human METTL9‐catalyzed Nπ‐methylation of His375 in zinc transporter SLC39A5‐derived peptides in which the histidine

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 30, 13 April 2026.An oral nanoplatform, MOP@T@D, which can maintain glucose homeostasis and restore islet β cells in diabetic rats is developed. It achieves efficient intestinal absorption and liver‐targeted delivery. The nanoparticle disintegrates only in response to hyperglycemia to release insulin on demand and provides antioxidant protection through selenoprotein ...

Genetic and cellular sensitivity of Caenorhabditis elegans to the chemotherapeutic agent cisplatin [PDF]
, 2018 Cisplatin and derivatives are commonly used as chemotherapeutic agents. Although the cytotoxic action of cisplatin on cancer cells is very efficient, clinical oncologists need to deal with two major difficulties, namely the onset of resistance to the ...

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 20, 9 April 2026.The diagram depicts the endothelial‐protective mechanism of magnesium lithospermate B (MLB) in sepsis‐associated lung injury. MLB binds GPX4 at Gly79, disrupts its interaction with FUNDC1, prevents mitophagy‐mediated GPX4 degradation, restores mitophagic flux, reduces ROS, and limits ferroptosis.

The ins and outs of metal homeostasis by the root nodule actinobacterium Frankia [PDF]
, 2014 Background: Frankia are actinobacteria that form a symbiotic nitrogen-fixing association with actinorhizal plants, and play a significant role in actinorhizal plant colonization of metal contaminated areas.
