Protocol for Reconstituting Adaptor‐Mediated Activation of Full‐Length Kinesin‐1

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kinesin‐1 is a member of the kinesin superfamily that plays an essential role in intracellular cargo transport. In the absence of cargo, Kinesin‐1 exhibits low motor activity due to autoinhibition. Multiple studies have demonstrated that adaptor proteins, which link cargos to Kinesin‐1, can activate Kinesin‐1 by releasing the autoinhibition ...

Peach Kernel Oil Modulates Lipid Metabolism Disorder in ApoEa CRISPR/Cas9 Gene‐Disrupted Zebrafish

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
In this study, we used CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology to establish a lipid metabolism disorder model of ApoEa mutant zebrafish. We applied peach kernel oil to this model and studied the mechanism of peach kernel oil regulating lipid disorder in combination with transcriptomics.
