The redox-dependent inhibition of thioredoxin (TRX) by thioredoxin-interacting protein (TXNIP) plays a pivotal role in various cancers and metabolic syndromes. However, the molecular mechanism this regulation is largely unknown. Here, we present crystal structure TRX–TXNIP complex demonstrate that TRX TXNIP mediated an intermolecular disulphide interaction resulting from novel bond-switching mechanism. Upon binding to TRX, undergoes structural rearrangement involves switching head-to-tail...
Another N-end rule to add Proteins that emerge from a ribosome bear the N-terminal methionine (Met) residue. In bacteria, Met is formylated before translation starts, whereas in eukaryotes, most nascent proteins seemed start with unmodified Met. Working yeast, Kim et al. found formylation of eukaryotic detectable even under normal conditions and greatly increased upon specific stresses, which cause some Fmt1 formyltransferase be retained cytoplasm. The retention this normally mitochondrial...
Abstract The prognostic and therapeutic relevance of molecular subtypes for the most aggressive isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 ( IDH ) wild-type glioblastoma (GBM) is currently limited due to high heterogeneity tumors that impedes patient stratification.

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most severe type of damage and primarily repaired by non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) homologous recombination (HR) in G1 S/G2 phase, respectively. Although CtBP-interacting protein (CtIP) is crucial resection during HR following DSBs, little known about how CtIP levels increase an S phase-specific manner. Here, we show that Serpine mRNA binding 1 (SERBP1) regulates expression at translational level phase. In response to camptothecin-mediated CHK1...
The 5-year survival rate in the early and late stages of ovarian cancer differs by 63%. In addition, a liquid biopsy is necessary because there are no symptoms stage tissue collection difficult without using invasive methods. Therefore, need for biomarkers to achieve this goal. study, we found blood-based metabolite or protein biomarker candidates diagnosis 20 clinical samples (10 patients 10 healthy control subjects). Plasma metabolites proteins were measured quantified mass spectrometry...
The circadian clock orchestrates behavior and physiology through the oscillation of key proteins like PERIOD (PER). Here, we investigate role ubiquitin-specific peptidase 14 (USP14) in modulating PER stability rhythms Drosophila. We find that overexpression USP14 cells reduces protein levels without altering its mRNA whereas knockdown increases levels, suggesting regulates post-translationally. Interestingly, despite these alterations neither nor significantly impacts behavioral rhythms,...
HMGB1 is a nuclear protein that overexpressed and secreted in cancer cells. However, little known about the roles of cytoplasm secretory pathway To clarify this aspect function, we fractionated HCT116 colon cells used proteomic approach to analyze cytoplasmic HMGB1-binding proteins.
