Preoperative Tyrosine Levels as Predictive Biomarkers for Excessive Fat-Free Mass Loss Following Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy in Patients with Morbid Obesity

Metabolites
Background/Objectives: Fat-free mass (FFM) loss after metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) is associated with adverse long-term outcomes, including osteoporosis.

MiR‐513a promotes human erythroid differentiation by modulating c‐Jun

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
During early human erythropoiesis, miR‐513a promoted erythroid differentiation in primary human CD34+ hematopoietic stem‐progenitor cells and human TF‐1 erythroleukemic cells by indirectly decreasing c‐Jun and phospho‐c‐Jun expression, which are associated with increased GATA1 expression.

Amino acid supplementation in mitochondrial aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase defects: two case reports of tyrosine supplementation in YARS2-associated disease and a review of the literature

Frontiers in Pediatrics
BackgroundMitochondrial diseases (MDs) caused by pathogenic variants in aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (ARS) genes, either cytosolic (ARS1) or mitochondrial (ARS2), are rare and clinically diverse.

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

Application of a risk score model based on tyrosine-related genes in the prognosis and treatment of patients with lung adenocarcinoma

Frontiers in Immunology
BackgroundTyrosine is associated with alterations in the tricarboxylic acid cycle in lung cancer, and exploring tyrosine-related genes (TRGs) has the potential to contribute to the construction of new sensitive prognostic biomarkers for patients with ...

Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.

Serum tyrosine increases all-cause mortality in an older population

Frontiers in Endocrinology
PurposeAmino acids play crucial roles in metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, especially branched-chain and aromatic amino acids, but their association with mortality remains understudied and inconclusive.

Molecular dynamics simulations of positively selected codons in FcγRI reveal novel biochemical binding properties

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Evolutionary analysis across 32 placental mammals identified positive selection at residues H148 and W149 in the immune receptor FcγR1. Ancestral reconstruction combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveals how these mutations may influence receptor structure and dynamics, providing insight into the evolution of antibody recognition and immune ...

Hypozincemia Is Associated With Increased Tyrosine Levels, Low Handgrip Strength, Increased Incidence of HCC, and Liver Disease Progression—A Cross‐Sectional Study

JGH Open
Background Serum zinc levels decrease in chronic liver disease (CLD), but their effects on liver reserve function, tyrosine, skeletal muscle mass, handgrip strength (HGS), and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development remain poorly understood. Methods A
