CDK4 Phosphorylates AMPK alpha 2 to Inhibit Its Activity and Repress Fatty Acid Oxidation

Anita Nasrallah, Caterina Collodet, Judit Castillo Armengol

The roles of CDK4 in the cell cycle have been extensively studied, but less is known about the mechanisms underlying the metabolic regulation by CDK4. Here, we report that CDK4 promotes anaerobic glycolysis and represses fatty acid oxidation in mouse embry ...

Exploring the inhibition mechanism of adenylyl cyclase type 5 by n-terminal myristoylated Gαi1

Ursula Röthlisberger, Siri Camee van Keulen

Adenylyl cyclase (AC) is an important messenger involved in G-protein-coupled-receptor signal transduction pathways, which is a well-known target for drug development. AC is regulated by activated stimulatory (Gαs) and inhibitory (Gαi) G proteins in the cy ...

Computational Investigation of Intracellular Signalling Cascades : from G-Protein-Coupled Receptors to Adenylyl Cyclase

Siri Camee van Keulen

In order to adjust to changes in the environment, cells can communicate via signalling cascades. A common pathway for intercellular communication is the G-protein-coupled- receptor (GPCR) signal transduction cascade which is triggered by a (chemical or phy ...

Modulation of AMPK's activity via genetic tools and food-derived compounds as a novel approach to Parkinson's disease treatment

Wojciech Janusz Bobela

Aging is considered as a major risk factor for Parkinsonâ s disease (PD) and can be defined as a gradual decline in the ability of biological systems to efficiently renew structural and functional components, which may lead to perturbations in energetic h ...

Learning-Induced Gene Expression in the Hippocampus Reveals a Role of Neuron-Astrocyte Metabolic Coupling in Long Term Memory

Pierre Magistretti, Igor Allaman, Gabriele Grenningloh, Sylvain Eric Lengacher, Monika Tadi

We examined the expression of genes related to brain energy metabolism and particularly those encoding glia (astrocyte)-specific functions in the dorsal hippocampus subsequent to learning. Context-dependent avoidance behavior was tested in mice using the s ...

Small effects of smoking on visual spatiotemporal processing

Michael Herzog

Nicotine is an important stimulant that is involved in modulating many neuronal processes, including those related to vision. Nicotine is also thought to play a key role in schizophrenia: A genetic variation of the cholinergic nicotine receptor gene, alpha ...

Structure of active dimeric human telomerase

Joachim Lingner

Telomerase contains a large RNA subunit, TER, and a protein catalytic subunit, TERT. Whether telomerase functions as a monomer or dimer has been a matter of debate. Here we report biochemical and labeling data that show that in vivo-assembled human telomer ...

Macromolecular Symmetric Assembly Prediction Using Swarm Intelligence Dynamic Modeling

Matteo Dal Peraro, Matteo Thomas Degiacomi

Proteins often assemble in multimeric complexes to perform a specific biologic function. However, trapping these high-order conformations is difficult experimentally. Therefore, predicting how proteins assemble using in silico techniques can be of great he ...

Predicting Novel Binding Modes of Agonists to β Adrenergic Receptors Using All-Atom Molecular Dynamics Simulations

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Marilisa Neri, Stefano Vanni

Understanding the binding mode of agonists to adrenergic receptors is crucial to enabling improved rational design of new therapeutic agents. However, so far the high conformational flexibility of G protein-coupled receptors has been an obstacle to obtaini ...

The role of NCAM in auditory fear conditioning and its modulation by stress: a focus on the amygdala

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Reto Bisaz

Chronic stress in rodents was shown to induce structural shrinkage and functional alterations in the hippocampus that were linked to spatial memory impairments. Effects of chronic stress on the amygdala have been linked to a facilitation of fear conditioni ...
