Amoebae are environmental predators feeding on bacteria, fungi, and other eukaryotic microbes. Predatory interactions alter microbial communities and impose selective pressure toward phagocytic resistance or escape which may, in turn, foster virulence ...

ADVANCED USE OF COENZYME Q10 IN PATIENTS WITH CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES
This report examines interest in compounds that normally prevent the toxic effects of ROS -antioxidants, namely reduced ubiquinone, which is only lipid soluble antioxidant synthesized in cells of animals and humans, and continuously recovered from ...

The site of synthesis of the iron-sulfur subunits of the flavoprotein and iron-protein fractions of human NADH dehydrogenase [PDF]
The site of synthesis of the iron-sulfur subunits of the flavoprotein and iron-protein fractions of the human respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase has been investigated to test the possibility that any of them is synthesized in mitochondria.

A Metabolic Dependency for Host Isoprenoids in the Obligate Intracellular Pathogen Rickettsia parkeri Underlies a Sensitivity to the Statin Class of Host-Targeted Therapeutics. [PDF]
Gram-negative bacteria in the order Rickettsiales have an obligate intracellular growth requirement, and some species cause human diseases such as typhus and spotted fever.

Plant‐type pentatricopeptide repeat proteins capable of C‐to‐U RNA editing perform faithfully when expressed in a new heterologous system, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. They were tested with constitutive and inducible expression and with a set of different solubility tags. PPR56, PPR65, and PPR78 from P.

Cystine (Cys2) deprivation in pancreatic cancer cells induces oxidative stress that destabilizes cytosolic iron–sulfur cluster (ISC) proteins, triggering an iron‐regulatory protein (IRP)‐mediated iron‐starvation response (ISR). This leads to increased iron uptake (via TFRC), an expanded labile iron pool, and ferroptosis.

Characterization of anhydromevalonate phosphate decarboxylase, the UbiD‐family decarboxylase involved in the archaeal mevalonate pathway, was conducted. The enzyme is responsible for the biosynthesis of isoprenoids, such as archaeal membrane lipids, respiratory quinones, and dolichols.

Isoprenoids determine Th1/Th2 fate in pathogenic T cells, providing a mechanism of modulation of autoimmunity by atorvastatin. [PDF]
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase is a critical enzyme in the mevalonate pathway that regulates the biosynthesis of cholesterol as well as isoprenoids that mediate the membrane association of certain GTPases.

Abstract In the context of current global change, variations in water temperature are one of the environmental conditions with serious consequences for marine life, including reproductive processes. In the small spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula, spermatogenesis occurs in spermatocysts composed of synchronously developing germ cells associated ...
