Development and validation of an expanded antibody toolset that captures alpha-synuclein pathological diversity in Lewy body diseases

Hilal Lashuel, Johannes Burtscher, Melek Firat Altay, Somanath Jagannath

The abnormal aggregation and accumulation of alpha-synuclein (aSyn) in the brain is a defining hallmark of synucleinopathies. Various aSyn conformations and post-translationally modified forms accumulate in pathological inclusions and vary in abundance amo ...

AMP-activated Protein Kinase (AMPK): New molecular insights and novel downstream targets

Katyayanee Neopane

AMP-activated Protein Kinase (AMPK) is a central regulator of energy homeostasis and a promising drug target for metabolic disorders. It exists as complexes of three subunits, a catalytic alpha, and two regulatory beta and gamma subunits. The regulation of ...

Capturing the heterogeneity of alpha-synuclein pathology in synucleinopathies

Melek Firat Altay

Synucleinopathies such as Parkinson's disease, dementia with Lewy bodies and multiple system atrophy (MSA) are detrimental neurodegenerative diseases. Alpha-synuclein (aSyn), the main aggregating protein found in the pathological inclusions of these ailmen ...

Can Precision Electrophile Signaling Make a Meaningful and Lasting Impression in Drug Design?

Yimon Aye, Amogh Kulkarni

For several years, drugs with reactive electrophilic appendages have been developed. These units typically confer prolonged residence time of the drugs on their protein targets, and may assist targeting shallow binding sites and/or improving the drug-prote ...

Phospho-S129 Alpha-Synuclein Is Present in Human Plasma but Not in Cerebrospinal Fluid as Determined by an Ultrasensitive Immunoassay

Hilal Lashuel, Sean Michael Deguire, Lara Petricca

Accumulation and aggregation of misfolded alpha-synuclein is believed to be a cause of Parkinson's disease (PD). Phosphorylation of alpha-synuclein at S129 is known to be associated with the pathological misfolding process, but efforts to investigate the r ...

Multi-phosphorylation reaction and clustering tune Pom1 gradient mid-cell levels according to cell size

Suliana Manley, Anna Archetti, Lina Carlini, Charlotte Sophia Floderer, Thaïs Reichler

Protein concentration gradients pattern developing organisms and single cells. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe rod-shaped cells, Pom1 kinase forms gradients with maxima at cell poles. Pom1 controls the timing of mitotic entry by inhibiting Cdr2, which forms s ...

Mitochondrial Post-translational Modifications and Metabolic Control: Sirtuins and Beyond

Carlos Canto Alvarez

Introduction: In order to maintain metabolic homeostasis, organisms adjust the capacity and efficiency of ATP generation to changes in energetic demand and supply. While the transcriptional control of mitochondrial biogenesis allows to adapt mitochondrial ...

Circadian and Feeding Rhythms Orchestrate the Diurnal Liver Acetylome

Felix Naef, Carlos Canto Alvarez, Jingkui Wang, Loïc Dayon, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Martin Kussmann, Daniel Alain Dominique Marie Mauvoisin, Joanna Ratajczak, Sebastiano Collino, Florian Atger

Lysine acetylation is involved in various biological processes and is considered a key reversible post-translational modification in the regulation of gene expression, enzyme activity, and subcellular localization. This post-translational modification is t ...

AMP-activated protein kinase : strategies for activation and downstream target identification

Serge Thanh Son Ducommun

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an evolutionally conserved key sensor of cellular energy status. Under conditions of cellular energy stress, AMPK is activated and will switch off anabolic processes that consume ATP, while activating catabolic proces ...

Effect of TiO2 Nanoparticles and UV Radiation on Extracellular Enzyme Activity of Intact Heterotrophic Biofilms

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg, Hannah Inka Schug

When introduced into the aquatic environment, TiO2 NP are likely to settle from the water column, which results in increased exposure of benthic communities. Here, we show that the activity of two extracellular enzymes of intact heterotrophic biofilms, bet ...
