Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

Effect of sodium compounds on particle adhesion in lime kiln [PDF]

, 2004
One of the problems faced in the operation of a lime kiln in a kraft pulp mill is the particle adhesion on the kiln wall, which may contribute to the formation of a ring. It has long been suspected that sodium compounds makes the particle sticky.

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.

Isolation and reactivity of sodium benzyl cations

Nature Communications
Carbanions are an important class of reactive species used as nucleophiles in C-C bond-forming reactions. Such reactive carbanions are generated by deprotonating relatively acidic C-H bonds using strong bases like sodium/potassium hydroxides or amides ...

Identification of phytoconstituents from Houttuynia cordata Thunb. as dipeptidyl peptidase-IV and sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors guided by molecular docking

Phytomedicine Plus
Purpose: Houttuynia cordata Thunb. is an edible medicinal herb belonging to the Saururaceae family. Although the effects of the plant extracts on several diabetic-related parameters have been documented in the past, there is no documentation of the ...

Hyperosmotic stress‐induced redistribution of pre‐mRNA cleavage factor I subunits is associated with shifts in alternative polyadenylation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Hyperosmotic stress triggers the relocation of the CFIm complex from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. This shift creates a nuclear ‘stoichiometric bottleneck’, limiting CFIm availability for mRNA processing. Consequently, specific mRNAs like NUDT21 and DICER1 undergo targeted 3′UTR shortening, demonstrating how spatial protein dynamics drive rapid ...

Evaluating the involvement of autolysosomes in the nuclear translocation of fluorescent proteins

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Endogenously expressed fluorescent proteins can be degraded by autophagy and transported to cell nuclei via the nuclear pore complex. But in some cell lines, for example, HeLa cells which are positive for immunoreactivity of a receptor ligand, such as UCN I, in cell nuclei, fusion of autolysosome with the nuclear envelope is involved in the nuclear ...
