The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Molecular mechanisms of follicular lymphoma and its transformation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
PhDFollicular lymphoma (FL) is the second most common form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and at least a third of cases undergo aggressive transformation (t-FL), most frequently to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.

Genetic Transformation of Yeast

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2001
Genetic transformation was first described by Griffith in 1928 and has since been demonstrated in a variety of organisms, including many species of fungi. This review focuses on the history and technology of the transformation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Transformation of Rhizoctonia solani [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The aim of this study was to develop a genetic transformation system for the plant pathogenic fungus Rhizoctonia solani (teliomorph, Thanatephprus cucumeris Frank [Donk]). The availability of a transformation system would allow us to study gene exchange,

A DNase encoded by integrated element CJIE1 inhibits natural transformation of Campylobacter jejuni [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The species Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni) is considered naturally competent for DNA uptake and displays strong genetic diversity. Nevertheless, non-naturally transformable strains and several relatively stable clonal lineages exist.

Leaf rust resistance in wheat and interpretation of the antifungal activity of silver and copper nanoparticles

open access: yesScientific Reports
Wheat production is jeopardized by Puccinia triticina, the pathogen responsible for wheat leaf rust. This study assessed the impact of silver (Ag) and copper (Cu) nanoparticles (NPs) on the control of wheat leaf rust disease and the underlying mechanisms
