Atomistic Insights of Calmodulin Gating of Complete Ion Channels
(MDPI, 2020-02-14)
Intracellular calcium is essential for many physiological processes, from neuronal signaling and exocytosis to muscle contraction and bone formation. Ca<sup>2+</sup> signaling from the extracellular medium depends both on ...
Elucidating Angelman syndromes,s molecular mechanisms by identifying the substrates, interactors and counteracting DUBs of UBE3A
(2022-07-11)
Tesi honetan, aurretiaz Drosophila melanogaster eulian eta saguetan identifikatutako UBE3Aren balizko substratuak balioztatu ditugu, horretarako moldatutako purifikazio estrategia bat erabiliz ¿GFP pull-down estrategia¿. ...
A Proteomic Approach for Systematic Mapping of Substrates of Human Deubiquitinating Enzymes
(MDPI, 2021-05-03)
The human genome contains nearly 100 deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) responsible for removing ubiquitin moieties from a large variety of substrates. Which DUBs are responsible for targeting which substrates remain mostly ...
The Ubiquitin Ligase Ariadne-1 Regulates Neurotransmitter Release Via Ubiquitination of NSF
(Elsevier, 2021-02-10)
Ariadne-1 (Ari-1) is an E3 ubiquitin-ligase essential for neuronal development, but whose neuronal substrates are yet to be identified. To search for putative Ari-1 substrates, we used an in vivo ubiquitin biotinylation ...
How to Inactivate Human Ubiquitin E3 Ligases by Mutation
(Frontiers Media, 2020-02-04)
E3 ubiquitin ligases are the ultimate enzymes involved in the transfer of ubiquitin to substrate proteins, a process that determines the fate of the modified protein. Numerous diseases are caused by defects in the ...
Analysis on the Characterization of Multiphoton Microscopy Images for Malignant Neoplastic Colon Lesion Detection under Deep Learning Methods
(Wolters Kluwer, 2021-06-21)
Background: Colorectal cancer has a high incidence rate worldwide, with over 1.8 million new cases and 880,792 deaths in 2018. Fortunately, its early detection significantly increases the survival rate, reaching a cure ...
Unzipping the Secrets of Amyloid Disassembly by the Human Disaggregase
(MDPI, 2021-10-14)
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) are increasingly positioned as leading causes of global deaths. The accelerated aging of the population and its strong relationship with neurodegeneration forecast these pathologies as a ...
HERC2 deficiency activates C-RAF/MKK3/p38 signalling pathway altering the cellular response to oxidative stress
(Springer, 2022)
HERC2 gene encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase involved in several cellular processes by regulating the ubiquitylation of different protein substrates. Biallelic pathogenic sequence variants in the HERC2 gene are associated ...
SPANX-A/D protein subfamily plays a key role in nuclear organisation, metabolism and flagellar motility of human spermatozoa
(Nature Publishing Group, 2020-03-27)
Human sperm protein associated with the nucleus on the X chromosome (SPANX) genes encode a protein family (SPANX-A, -B, -C and -D), whose expression is limited to the testis and spermatozoa in normal tissues and to a wide ...
HuR/ELAVL1 drives malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor growth and metastasis
(The American Society for Clinical Investigation, 2020-07-01)
Cancer cells can develop a strong addiction to discrete molecular regulators, which control the aberrant gene expression programs that drive and maintain the cancer phenotype. Here, we report the identification of the ...
