Uridine diphosphate glucose confers oxidative stress tolerance in microalgae [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Background Microalgae, as major primary producers on Earth, are constantly exposed to oxidative stresses from various natural environments. These oxidative stresses often seriously threaten the productivity and species composition of microalgae. However,

Uridine Diphosphate Glucose (UDP-G) Activates Oxidative Stress and Respiratory Burst in Isolated Neutrophils [PDF]

Pharmaceuticals, 2023
The extracellular purinergic agonist uridine diphosphate glucose (UDP-G) activates chemotaxis of human neutrophils (PMN) and the recruitment of PMN at the lung level, via P2Y14 purinergic receptor signaling.

UDP-glucose and MRS2905 agonist-bound states of the purinergic P2Y14 receptor [PDF]

Communications Biology
P2Y14 receptors respond to uracil-diphosphate-hexose conjugates, yet how this receptor selectively recognizes both uracil-nucleotides and hexose moieties of diverse agonists remains unclear.

Structural basis of collagen glucosyltransferase function and its serendipitous role in kojibiose synthesis [PDF]

Nature Communications
Collagen glucosyltransferases catalyze collagen glucosylation critical for biology and diseases, yet their structural regulation remains unclear. Here, we report crystal structures of a mimiviral collagen glucosyltransferase in its apo form and in ...
