Studies on muscular dystrophy associated genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
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

Novel role for proteinase-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) in membrane trafficking of proteinase-activated receptor 4 (PAR4)

open access: yes, 2012
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]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, 2008
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.

Potential role of the cell‐penetrating peptide‐conjugated soluble N‐ethylmaleimide‐sensitive factor attachment protein receptor motif of vesicle‐associated membrane protein 2‐patterned peptide in novel cosmeceutical skin product development

open access: yesJournal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2023
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 ...

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2012
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).

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
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

open access: yesCells, 2020
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 ...
