The CRL5-SPSB3 ubiquitin ligase targets nuclear cGAS for degradation

Andrea Ablasser, Baptiste Claude André Guey, Jonathan Jean-Pierre Ricci, Chong Liu, Pauline Ambre Melenec, Pengbiao Xu, Lingyun Li, Ying Liu

Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) senses aberrant DNA during infection, cancer and inflammatory disease, and initiates potent innate immune responses through the synthesis of 2 ' 3 '-cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP)1-7. The indiscriminate activity of cGAS towards DNA d ...

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 ...

KAT Ligation for Rapid and Facile Covalent Attachment of Biomolecules to Surfaces

Nako Nakatsuka, Nicholas Spencer

The efficient and bioorthogonal chemical ligation reaction between potassium acyltrifluoroborates (KATs) and hydroxylamines (HAs) was used for the surface functionalization of a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) with biomolecules. An alkane thioether molecule ...

Real-Time Imaging and Quantification of Peptide Uptake in Vitro and in Vivo

Elena Goun, Hacer Karatas, Aleksey Yevtodiyenko, Tamara Maric, Pier Luca D'Alessandro

Peptides constitute an important class of drugs for the treatment of multiple metabolic, ontological, and neurodegenerative diseases, and several hundred novel therapeutic peptides are currently in the preclinical and clinical stages of development. Howeve ...

Novel systems biology approaches for design and analysis of palmitoylation networks reveal its regulatory effects on protein stability, activity and localization

Tiziano Dallavilla

Communication and environment sensing are fundamental for the regulation of the majority of the cellular functions. In cells there are dedicated networks that are responsible for signalling, which gives the ability to the cell of sensing the external and i ...

Site-Specific Polymer Attachment to HR2 Peptide Fusion Inhibitors against HIV-1 Decreases Binding Association Rates and Dissociation Rates Rather Than Binding Affinity

Harm-Anton Klok, Frederik Roman Wurm, Maarten Danial

A popular strategy for overcoming the limited plasma half-life of peptide heptad repeat 2 (HR2) fusion inhibitors against HIV-1 is conjugation with biocompatible polymers such as poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). However, despite improved resistance to proteoly ...

Capping Motif for Peptide Helix Formation

Thomas Rizzo, Aleksandra Zabuga

It is known that a C-terminal lysine stabilizes helix formation in polyalanine peptides that have seven or more residues. Using a combination of cold ion spectroscopy and DFT calculations, we demonstrate that even a three-residue peptide, Ac-Phe-Ala-LysH+, ...

Assessing the potential of atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to probe reversible protein-protein recognition and binding

Matteo Dal Peraro, Luciano Andres Abriata

Protein-protein recognition and binding are governed by diffusion, noncovalent forces and conformational flexibility, entangled in a way that only molecular dynamics simulations can dissect at high resolution. Here we exploited ubiquitin's noncovalent dime ...

Dissecting the mechanisms of tissue transglutaminase-induced cross-linking of alpha-synuclein: implications for the pathogenesis of Parkinson disease

Hilal Lashuel, Diego Chiappe, Marc Moniatte, Adrian Schmid, Ivan Hang

Tissue transglutaminase (tTG) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Parkinson disease (PD). However, exactly how tTG modulates the structural and functional properties of alpha-synuclein (alpha-syn) and contributes to the pathogenesis of PD remains un ...
