What Is the Role of Giant Endosomal Sorting Complexes Required for Transport (ESCRT) Structures in T Cell Activation?

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
The article explores the discovery of unusually large, ring‐shaped ESCRT protein structures formed by immune and stromal cells. It investigates their formation, composition, and potential roles in immune synapse formation. The findings challenge assumptions about their function in immunological synapses, suggesting an exclusive role in maintaining ...

Screening of DUB activity and specificity by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry [PDF]

, 2014
Deubiquitylases (DUBs) are key regulators of the ubiquitin system which cleave ubiquitin moieties from proteins and polyubiquitin chains. Several DUBs have been implicated in various diseases and are attractive drug targets. We have developed a sensitive

A Spatially Resolved View on the Aging Substantia nigra: An Exploratory Proteomic Study

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
Although aging is the most important risk factor for several neurodegenerative diseases, the molecular effects of physiological aging are still understudied. By applying spatially‐resolved proteomic analyses of the human substantia nigra pars compacta, alterations in vesicular trafficking and mitochondrial proteins are observed, as well as reduced ...

The Ligation Systems for Ubiquitin and Ubiquitin-like Proteins

Molecules and Cells, 1998
Ubiquitin (Ub) is a highly conserved small protein present universally in eukaryotic cells, which is covalently attached to substrate proteins by a cascade system, consisting of activating (E1), conjugating (E2), and/or ligating (E3) enzymes. The modification of cellular proteins with Ub targets them for degradation by a large multisubunit protease ...

Bioinspired Design of a Wet‐Adhesive Cornea Glue Based on Recombinant Human Protein Networks

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Natures protein‐based high performance materials e.g. elastin, silk and muscle proteins have been mimicked by a new protein‐hybrid material based on redesigned human partial sequences only, showing high wet‐adhesiveness and elasticity for biomedical applications.

Towards a Universal Translator: Decoding the PTMs That Regulate Orthoflavivirus Infection

Viruses
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) serve as critical regulators of protein function across biological systems, including during viral infection. For orthoflaviviruses, including human pathogens like dengue, Zika, and West Nile viruses, PTMs on viral

DEEPN as an Approach for Batch Processing of Yeast 2-Hybrid Interactions

Cell Reports, 2016
We adapted the yeast 2-hybrid assay to simultaneously uncover multiple transient protein interactions within a single screen by using a strategy termed DEEPN (dynamic enrichment for evaluation of protein networks).

The Expanding Universe of Ubiquitin and Ubiquitin-Like Modifiers [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2012
The post-translation addition of ubiquitin (Ub) and structurally related polypeptide modifiers to other intracellular constituents is now known to be an important intermediate driving a wide assortment of metabolic and regulatory processes in plants. Although the most common targets are other proteins, conjugation of specific modifiers to lipids and ...
