Studies on muscular dystrophy associated genes [PDF]
Muscular dystrophy is a collective group of genetic disorder that results in progressive wasting of skeletal muscle. Dysferlin, the gene responsible for Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B) and Miyoshi Myopathy (MM) was found to be a member of

Proteinase-activated receptors 4 (PAR(4)) is a class A G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) recognized through the ability of serine proteases such as thrombin and trypsin to mediate receptor activation. Due to the irreversible nature of activation, a fresh

Vesicle associated membrane protein (VAMP)‐7 and VAMP‐8, but not VAMP‐2 or VAMP‐3, are required for activation‐induced degranulation of mature human mast cells [PDF]
AbstractMediator release from mast cells (MC) is a crucial step in allergic and non‐allergic inflammatory disorders. However, the final events in response to activation leading to membrane fusion and thereby facilitating degranulation have hitherto not been analyzed in human MC.

AbstractAimThis study aimed to investigate and verify the effect of cell‐penetrating peptide (CPP)‐conjugated soluble N‐ethylmaleimide‐sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) motif of vesicle‐associated membrane protein 2 (VAMP2)‐patterned peptide (INCI name: Acetyl sh‐Oligopeptide‐26 sh‐Oligopeptide‐27 SP, trade name: M.Biome‐BT) on ...

This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Detection of SNARE complexes with FRET using the tetracysteine system
The three proteins synaptosomal-associated protein 25 (SNAP-25), Syntaxin-1a and vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP-2) are collectively called SNAREs (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors).

We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Phosphoinositides and inositol phosphates as molecular glues
Inositol phosphates (IPs) and phosphoinositides (PIPs) regulate diverse eukaryotic processes. Beyond recruiting signaling proteins or acting as structural cofactors, recent studies suggest they mediate protein–protein interactions as natural molecular glues.

Oxysterole-binding protein targeted by SARS-CoV-2 viral proteins regulates coronavirus replication
IntroductionOxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) is known for its crucial role in lipid transport, facilitating cholesterol exchange between the Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum membranes.

A New Pathway Promotes Adaptation of Human Glioblastoma Cells to Glucose Starvation
Adaptation of glioblastoma to caloric restriction induces compensatory changes in tumor metabolism that are incompletely known. Here we show that in human glioblastoma cells maintained in exhausted medium, SHC adaptor protein 3 (SHC3) increases due to ...
