The Actin‐Binding Prolyl‐Isomerase Par17 Sustains Its Substrate Selectivity by Interdomain Allostery

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 93, Issue 9, Page 1481-1497, September 2025.
ABSTRACT The human peptidyl‐prolyl‐cis/trans isomerases (PPIases), Parvulin 14 and Parvulin 17, accelerate the cis/trans isomerization of Xaa‐Pro moieties within protein sequences. By modulating the respective binding interfaces of their target proteins, they play a crucial role in determining the fate of their substrates within the cell. Although both

The Ins and Outs of miRNA-Mediated Gene Silencing during Neuronal Synaptic Plasticity [PDF]

, 2016
Neuronal connections through specialized junctions, known as synapses, create circuits that underlie brain function. Synaptic plasticity, i.e., structural and functional changes to synapses, occurs in response to neuronal activity and is a critical ...

Proteomic Profiling Informs Mechanisms of Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Inhibition by Cranberry Proanthocyanidins

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 69, Issue 15, August 2025.
In this study we utilized proteomic profiling to investigate mechanisms linked to the cancer‐inhibitory effect of cranberry proanthocyanidins (CPACs) on reflux‐induced esophageal adenocarcinoma in a rat model. The results indicate that CPAC inhibits cancer through targeting multiple hallmarks of cancer known to be dysregulated in progression to ...

A New method for the capture of surface proteins in Plasmodium falciparum parasitized erythrocyte [PDF]

, 2012
Introduction: We propose a new method for the selective labeling, isolation and electrophoretic analysis of the Plasmodium falciparum protein exposed on the erythrocyte cell surface.

Comparative Analysis of Primary Sarcopenia and End‐Stage Renal Disease–Related Muscle Wasting Using Multi‐Omics Approaches

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Age‐related primary sarcopenia and end‐stage renal disease (ESRD)–related muscle wasting are discrete entities; however, both manifest as a decline in skeletal muscle mass and strength. The etiological pathways differ, with aging factors implicated in sarcopenia and a combination of uremic factors, including haemodialysis ...

M-band: a safeguard for sarcomere stability? [PDF]

, 2018
The sarcomere of striated muscle is a very efficient machine transforming chemical energy into movement. However, a wrong distribution of the generated forces may lead to self-destruction of the engine itself.

Applying antibodies inside cells: Principles and recent advances in neurobiology, virology and oncology [PDF]

, 2020
To interfere with cell function, many scientists rely on methods that target DNA or RNA due to the ease with which they can be applied. Proteins are usually the final executors of function but are targeted only indirectly by these methods.

Key Pathophysiological Role of Skeletal Muscle Disturbance in Post COVID and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS): Accumulated Evidence

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 1, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Recent studies provide strong evidence for a key role of skeletal muscle pathophysiology in myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). In a 2021 review article on the pathophysiology of ME/CFS, we postulated that hypoperfusion and ischemia can result in excessive sodium and calcium overload in skeletal muscles of ...

Tropomodulins and Leiomodins: Actin Pointed End Caps and Nucleators in Muscles [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2017
Cytoskeletal structures characterized by actin filaments with uniform lengths, including the thin filaments of striated muscles and the spectrin-based membrane skeleton, use barbed and pointed-end capping proteins to control subunit addition/dissociation at filament ends.

Actin Dynamics in Muscle Cells [PDF]

, 2009
In every cell, actin is a key component involved in migration, cytokinesis, endocytosis and generation of contraction. In non-muscle cells, actin filaments are very dynamic and regulated by an array of proteins that interact with actin filaments and/or ...
