A novel regulator of selective autophagy: TNIP1/ABIN-1 modulates mitophagy

open access: yesAutophagy Reports, 2023
TNIP1/ABIN-1 is a novel inhibitor of inflammation and cell death. In our study, we elucidated the MAP1LC3/LC3 (microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3)-interacting region (LIR) 1 and 2 motifs of TNIP1-dependent direct binding to LC3B-II and ...

Systems analysis of guard cell membrane transport for enhanced stomatal dynamics and water use efficiency [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Stomatal transpiration is at the centre of a crisis in water availability and crop production that is expected to unfold over the next 20-30 years. Global water usage has increased 6-fold in the past 100 years, twice as fast as the human population, and ...

Paraquat Toxicity Induced by Voltage-dependent Anion Channel 1 Acts as an NADH-dependent Oxidoreductase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
Paraquat (PQ), a herbicide used worldwide, causes fatal injury to organs upon high dose ingestion. Treatments for PQ poisoning are unreliable, and numerous deaths have been attributed inappropriate usage of the agent. It is generally speculated that a microsomal drug-metabolizing enzyme system is responsible for PQ toxicity.

Human erythroid differentiation requires VDAC1-mediated mitochondrial clearance

open access: yesHaematologica, 2021
Erythroblast maturation in mammals is dependent on organelle clearance throughout terminal erythropoiesis. We studied the role of the outer mitochondrial membrane protein voltage-dependent anion channel-1 (VDAC1) in human terminal erythropoiesis.

Combining nano-differential scanning fluorimetry and microscale thermophoresis to investigate VDAC1 interaction with small molecules

open access: yesJournal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2023
The mitochondrial voltage-dependent anion channel 1 (VDAC1) plays a central role in metabolism and apoptosis, which makes it a promising therapeutic target. Nevertheless, molecular mechanisms governing VDAC1 functioning remain unclear.

TSPO: kaleidoscopic 18-kDa amid biochemical pharmacology, control and targeting of mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The 18-kDa translocator protein (TSPO) localizes in the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) of cells and is readily up-regulated under various pathological conditions such as cancer, inflammation, mechanical lesions and neurological diseases. Able to bind

The pathogen Moniliophthora perniciosa promotes differential proteomic modulation of cacao genotypes with contrasting resistance to witches´ broom disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Witches' broom disease (WBD) of cacao (Theobroma cacao L.), caused by Moniliophthora perniciosa, is the most important limiting factor for the cacao production in Brazil.

Peripheral benzodiazepine receptor regulates vascular endothelial activations via suppression of the voltage‐dependent anion channel‐1 [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2012
Peripheral benzodiazepine receptor (PBR) is a multifunctional protein mainly found on the outer mitochondrial membrane. PBR expression is increased by tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) in endothelial cells. Adenoviral overexpression of PBR inhibits monocyte adhesion, VCAM‐1, and ICAM‐1 expression in TNF‐α‐activated endothelial cells.

Electrogenic transport and K(+) ion channel expression by the human endolymphatic sac epithelium. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The endolymphatic sac (ES) is a cystic organ that is a part of the inner ear and is connected to the cochlea and vestibule. The ES is thought to be involved in inner ear ion homeostasis and fluid volume regulation for the maintenance of hearing and ...
