Structural and functional dissection of the WH2/DAD motif of INF2, a formin linked to human inherited degenerative disorders

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The INF2 WH2/DAD domain, composed of hydrophobic and basic regions, forms a single α‐helix in solution. The hydrophobic segment is essential for INF2 function, as its deletion disrupts actin dynamics and causes nuclear abnormalities, like those seen in pathogenic INF2 DID variants. In contrast, natural INF2 WH2/DAD variants found in patients with renal

Transglutaminase‐mediated cytokeratin modifications implicated in bile‐acid‐induced hepatocyte death

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Cholestasis and bile‐acid exposure enhance expression and activity of protein crosslinking enzymes TG1 and TG2 in hepatocytes. Substrate proteins were identified by mass spectrometry using biotin‐labeled peptides (pepK5/pepT26) or amine donor (biotinylated pentylamine; BPA). Crosslinking‐induced aggregation and fragmentation of keratin 18 and 8 (K18/K8)

Protein nanoparticles assemble in plants, display antigenic viral peptides, and produce an epitope‐specific immune response

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Current methods to control porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome, a disease affecting pigs, are insufficient and a safer, more effective vaccine is needed. This study describes the design and plant production of a self‐assembling protein nanoparticle vaccine candidate against this disease.
