Plant glutathione transferases
Genome Biology, 2002 SummaryThe soluble glutathione transferases (GSTs, EC 2.5.1.18) are encoded by a large and diverse gene family in plants, which can be divided on the basis of sequence identity into the phi, tau, theta, zeta and lambda classes.

Mutant p53R273H disrupts PDPK1 homodimerization and contributes to PDPK1 activation
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.How mutant p53R273H drives AKT signaling is unclear. We show that p53R273H, but not wild‐type, directly binds PDPK1 via a mutation‐dependent conformational change. This interaction disrupts inhibitory PDPK1 homodimerization and enhances AKT phosphorylation.

Regulation of Signal Transduction by Glutathione Transferases
International Journal of Hepatology, 2012 Glutathione transferases (GST) are essentially known as enzymes that catalyse the conjugation of glutathione to various electrophilic compounds such as chemical carcinogens, environmental pollutants, and antitumor agents.

Biology Direct, 2021 Background The human proteins TMTC1, TMTC2, TMTC3 and TMTC4 have been experimentally shown to be components of a new O-mannosylation pathway. Their own mannosyl-transferase activity has been suspected but their actual enzymatic potential has not been ...

Versatile vector tools for efficient protein screening across multiple expression systems
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.A unified vector toolkit enables rapid protein expression screening across E. coli, insect, and mammalian cells. A single primer pair amplifies the target gene, which is inserted into any vector via a standardized interface. This streamlined workflow eliminates repeated cloning steps, accelerating the identification of optimal expression conditions for

Heterotropic regulation and negative homotropic cooperativity
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We identified a structural module common to some proteins that couple negative cooperativity with heterotropic regulation, two features that rarely coexist. These proteins are ring‐like and present an ordered asymmetry whereby noncontacting subunits are symmetric, and their tertiary structure differs from that of contacting subunits.

Structure and functions of glutathione transferases
The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2014 Data about classification, nomenclature, structure, substrate specificity and role of many glutathione transferase’s isoenzymes in cell functions have been summarised. The enzyme has been discovered more than 50 years ago.

The Phosphopantetheinyl Transferases: Catalysis of a Posttranslational Modification Crucial for Life
Natural product reports (Print), 2014 Although holo-acyl carrier protein synthase, AcpS, a phosphopantetheinyl transferase (PPTase), was characterized in the 1960s, it was not until the publication of the landmark paper by Lambalot et al.

The C‐terminal domain of yeast Arginyltransferase1 is essential for its catalytic activity
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Arginyltransferase 1 (Ate1), a eukaryotic enzyme, catalyses arginylation, transferring arginine from tRNA‐Arg to the amino terminus of the target protein. Overexpression of Ate1 in yeast is lethal and is dependent on arginylation. This study elucidates how mutations in the cofactor‐binding and active site of Ate1 and truncation of its structural ...
