Exploring the role of post-translational modifications in regulating α-synuclein interactions by studying the effects of phosphorylation on nanobody binding

Hilal Lashuel, Juan Kiwi, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Anass Chiki, Farah El Turk

Intracellular deposits of α-synuclein in the form of Lewy bodies are major hallmarks of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and a range of related neurodegenerative disorders. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of α-synuclein are increasingly thought to be major ...

Characterization of Molecular Determinants of the Conformational Stability of Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor: Leucine 46 Hydrophobic Pocket

Ursula Röthlisberger, Hilal Lashuel, Florence Pojer, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Michele Cascella, Marilisa Neri, Magdalena Zweckstetter, Hajer Ouertatani-Sakouhi, Farah El Turk, Min Kyu Cho, Amer Ashrafi

Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) is a key mediator of inflammatory responses and innate immunity and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The oligomerization of MIF, more specifically trimer f ...

Identification and characterization of novel classes of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) inhibitors with distinct mechanisms of action

Hilal Lashuel, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Magdalena Zweckstetter, Hajer Ouertatani-Sakouhi, Farah El Turk, Min Kyu Cho

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), a proinflammatory cytokine, is considered an attractive therapeutic target in multiple inflammatory and autoimmune disorders. In addition to its known biologic activities, MIF can also function as a tautomerase ...
