Structure-function relationships of tumor suppresor ING5
(2017-07-04)
La familia ING (INhibitor of Growth) de supresores tumorales está formada por cinco proteínas homólogas que regulan el estado transcripcional de la cromatina por medio del reclutamiento de complejos remodeladores de cromatina ...
Proteoliposomal formulations of an HIV-1 gp41-based miniprotein elicit a lipid-dependent immunodominant response overlapping the 2F5 binding motif
(2017-01-13)
The HIV-1 gp41 Membrane Proximal External Region (MPER) is recognized by broadly neutralizing antibodies and represents a promising vaccine target. However, MPER immunogenicity and antibody activity are influenced by ...
Identification and in vitro characterization of two new PCSK9 Gain of Function variants found in patients with Familial Hypercholesterolemia
(Nature, 2017-11)
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by pathogenic variants in genes encoding for LDL receptor (LDLR), Apolipoprotein B and Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9). Among ...
Lipid regulation of Atg8 family protein recruitment and membrane modulation of mitophagy and autophagic cell death

G protein-membrane interactions II: Effect of G Protein-linked Lipids on Membrane Structure and G Protein-membrane Interactions
(Elsevier, 2017-07-03)
[EN] G proteins often bear myristoyl, palmitoyl and isoprenyl moieties, which favor their
association with the membrane and their accumulation in G Protein Coupled Receptor-rich
microdomains. These lipids influence the ...
Conformational stabilization as a strategy to prevent nucleophosmin mislocalization in leukemia
(Nature Research, 2017-10-24)
Nucleophosmin (NPM) is a nucleolar protein involved in ribosome assembly and cell homeostasis. Mutations in the C-terminal domain of NPM that impair native folding and localization are associated with acute myeloid leukemia ...
Human ATG3 binding to lipid bilayers: role of lipid geometry, and electric charge
(Nature Publishing, 2017-11-15)
Specific protein-lipid interactions lead to a gradual recruitment of AuTophaGy-related (ATG) proteins to the nascent membrane during autophagosome (AP) formation. ATG3, a key protein in the movement of LC3 towards the ...
Triacylglycerol mimetics regulate membrane interactions of glycogen branching enzyme: implications for therapy
(Elsevier, 2017-06-19)
Adult polyglucosan body disease (APBD) is a neurological disorder characterized by adult-onset neurogenic bladder, spasticity, weakness, and sensory loss. The disease is caused by aberrant glycogen branching enzyme (GBE) ...
