Unusual backfolded binding poses of BAZ2A bromodomain binders

Acta Crystallographica Section D, EarlyView.
We identified BAZ2A‐binding compounds assuming a peculiar, almost enclosed, conformation. These molecules pose a basis for the development of potent BAZ2A macrocyclic inhibitors, as performed for other bromodomains.BAZ2A is a large multidomain protein overexpressed in aggressive prostate cancer, where it potentiates migration and invasion of other ...

Covalent fluorescent probes for 2‐arachidonoylglycerol metabolic pathways

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Covalent fluorescent probes have emerged as versatile chemical tools to visualise active enzymes in complex biological systems. When tailored for specific applications, ranging from activity‐based protein profiling for drug development to high spatiotemporal resolution imaging of enzymatic activities, these probes provide unique insights into ...

Evolution of Dermatophytic Fungi: Anthropogenic and Biogenic Environmental Factors

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change presents new challenges to dermatologic care, ranging from anthropogenic factors, such as pollution that select for extremotolerant and potentially antifungal‐resistant fungi, to biogenic factors that can drive zoonotic outbreaks, which have received increased attention since the SARS‐CoV‐2 pandemic.

Deep and disseminated dermatophytosis in immunocompromised populations—A systematic review

Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
Dermatophyte infections of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue (i.e. deep dermatophytosis)—associated with secondary complications including pseudomycetoma and systemic dissemination—affect vulnerable populations with primary or acquired immunodeficiencies.

Arabidopsis inositol polyphosphate kinase activities regulate COP9 deneddylation functions in phosphate homeostasis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Plant phosphate (Pi) homeostasis relies on coordinated activities of the inositol polyphosphate kinases IPK1 and ITPK1, which balance localized InsP7 biosynthesis to control COP9 signalosome (CSN)‐dependent deneddylation of cullin 1 (CUL1). Perturbation of this equilibrium affects the stability of SPX4, a key negative regulator of phosphate starvation ...

A cytochrome P450 gene, GmSUR2a, confers submergence tolerance and improves yield in soybean by modulating auxin homeostasis

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
The key cytochrome P450 gene GmSUR2a enables soybeans to withstand destructive submergence stress. By lowering the level of the plant hormone indole‐3‐acetic acid, this gene improves soybean survival and increases field yield. It offers an important tool for breeding stress‑resilient soybeans, securing food production against extreme weather conditions.

Platelet‐Rich Fibrins as Local Drug‐Delivery Carriers

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Autologous platelet concentrates (APCs), particularly platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF), act as biologically active fibrin scaffolds, capable of entrapping and gradually releasing therapeutic agents in oral and periodontal therapy. The incorporation of bioactive compounds, such as antibiotics, antifungals, vitamins, antidiabetic drugs, and exosomes, enhances ...

Transcriptional Regulation of the Novel Theacrine Synthase Gene CsTcS2 by the CsTINY–CsWRKY33 Module Underpins Theacrine Biosynthesis in Camellia sinensis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Theacrine (1,3,7,9‐tetramethyluric acid) is a purine alkaloid detected in multiple wild and specialised tea germplasms (Camellia sinensis) from South China, including Kucha. However, the molecular mechanisms governing its biosynthesis remain poorly understood. Here, we identify CsTcS2 as a novel theacrine synthase in tea plant.

OsMYB306‐OsRAV11 Regulates Resistance of Rice to Striped Stem Borer by Modulating Serotonin Biosynthesis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Striped stem borer (SSB; Chilo suppressalis Walker) is one of the most destructive pests in rice production. Previous studies have demonstrated that SSB infestation induces transcription of OsT5H (tryptamine‐5‐hydroxylase) and biosynthesis of serotonin, a newly recognised phytohormone, and that disruption of serotonin biosynthesis ...

Natural Variation in GmSL20 Improves Seed Size and Quality in Soybean

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed size plays an important role in determining crop yield, yet the genetic mechanisms underlying the regulation of this agronomic trait remain incompletely understood in soybean. Here, we perform a genome‐wide association study mapping with seed length variations and identify a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 20, named ...
