Holding Out for a Model: Rhomboid Superfamily in Vertebrate Development and Disease
ABSTRACT The rhomboid superfamily, comprising both proteases and pseudoproteases, has emerged as a central regulator of membrane biology, mediating diverse functions including protein quality control, signal transduction, trafficking, and more. While molecular mechanisms of rhomboid activity have been well‐characterized in invertebrate and cell‐based ...

New C-Terminal Conserved Regions of Tafazzin, a Catalyst of Cardiolipin Remodeling [PDF]
Cardiolipin interacts with many proteins of the mitochondrial inner membrane and, together with cytochrome C and creatine kinase, activates them. It can be considered as an integrating factor for components of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, which provides for an efficient transfer of electrons and protons.

Cardiomyopathy is the predominant defect in Barth syndrome (BTHS) and is caused by a mutation of the X-linked Tafazzin (TAZ) gene, which encodes an enzyme responsible for remodeling mitochondrial cardiolipin. Despite the known importance of mitochondrial

Emerging Roles for Ciz1 in Cell Cycle Regulation and as a Driver of Tumorigenesis [PDF]
Precise duplication of the genome is a prerequisite for the health and longevity of multicellular organisms. The temporal regulation of origin specification, replication licensing, and firing at replication origins is mediated by the cyclin-dependent ...

Mitochondria as Regulators of Nonapoptotic Cell Death in Cancer
Mitochondrial fission and fusion are key processes in maintaining cellular health. Fission is driven by proteins like, Fis‐1, which recruits DRP‐1, to facilitate the division of mitochondria. Fusion, however, is mediated by mitofusion 1(MFN1), mitofusion 2(MFN2), and optic atrophy 1 (OPA1), which work together to merge mitochondria, allowing functional
