Dynamic partitioning of branched-chain amino acids-derived nitrogen supports renal cancer progression

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Maria Masid Barcon, Ming Yang

Metabolic reprogramming is critical for tumor initiation and progression. However, the exact impact of specific metabolic changes on cancer progression is poorly understood. Here, we integrate multimodal analyses of primary and metastatic clonally-related ...

GCN2 adapts protein synthesis to scavenging-dependent growth

Pancreatic cancer cells with limited access to free amino acids can grow by scavenging extracellular protein. In a murine model of pancreatic cancer, we performed a genome-wide CRISPR screen for genes required for scavenging-dependent growth. The screen id ...

Hypervalent Iodine-Mediated Late-Stage Peptide and Protein Functionalization

Jérôme Waser, Elija Grinhagena, Emmanuelle Madeline Dominique Allouche

Hypervalent iodine compounds are powerful reagents for the development of novel transformations. As they exhibit low toxicity, high functional group tolerance, and stability in biocompatible media, they have been used for the functionalization of biomolecu ...

Mild inborn errors of metabolism in commonly used inbred mouse strains

Johan Auwerx, Wei Zhang, Evan Graehl Williams

Inbred mouse strains are a cornerstone of translational research but paradoxically many strains carry mild inborn errors of metabolism. For example, alpha-aminoadipic acidemia and branched-chain ketoacid dehydrogenase deficiency are known in C57BL/6J mice. ...

Experimental and theoretical studies on electropolymerization of polar amino acids on platinum electrode

Christophe Roussel

The anodic oxidation of polar amino acids (L-serine, L-threonine, L-asparagine, and L-glutamine) in aqueous electrolyte on smooth platinum electrode was carried out by cyclic voltammetry coupled to electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). pH (zw ...

High levels of ammonia do not raise fine particle pH sufficiently to yield nitrogen oxide-dominated sulfate production

Athanasios Nenes, Hairun Guo

High levels of ammonia (NH3) have been suggested to elevate ambient particle pH levels to near neutral acidity (pH = 7), a condition that promotes rapid SO2 oxidation by NO2 to form aerosol sulfate concentration consistent with "London fog" levels. This po ...

Multilaser Conformer-Selective Spectroscopy of Cold Biomolecular Ions in the Gas Phase

Aleksandr Pereverzev

Proteins and even small peptides play crucial role in almost any biological. Biological activity and functionality of these building blocks of life are determined not only by their primary structure, but also by their 3D orientation â secondary, tertiary ...

SRT1720 improves survival and healthspan of obese mice

Johan Auwerx, Carlos Canto Alvarez

Sirt1 is an NAD1-dependent deacetylase that extends lifespan in lower organisms and improves metabolism and delays the onset of age-related diseases in mammals. Here we show that SRT1720, a synthetic compound that was identified for its ability to activate ...

Enantioselective Aza-Morita-Baylis-Hillman Reaction Using Aliphatic alpha -Amidosulfones as Imine Surrogates

Jieping Zhu

The bifunctional catalyst 6'-deoxy-6'-acylamino-beta -isocupreidine served both as a base to trigger the in situ generation of N-sulfonylimine from readily available alpha -amidosulfones and as a chiral nucleophile to initiate the enantioselective aza-Mori ...
