Resolving Affinity Purified Protein Complexes by Blue Native PAGE and Protein Correlation Profiling.
(2017-04)
Most proteins act in association with others; hence, it is crucial to characterize these functional units in order to fully understand biological processes. Affinity purification coupled to mass spectrometry (AP-MS) has ...
Ubiquitylation of MLKL at lysine 219 positively regulates necroptosis-induced tissue injury and pathogen clearance.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2021-06-07)
Necroptosis is a lytic, inflammatory form of cell death that not only contributes to pathogen clearance but can also lead to disease pathogenesis. Necroptosis is triggered by RIPK3-mediated phosphorylation of MLKL, which ...
Mutations in FAM50A suggest that Armfield XLID syndrome is a spliceosomopathy.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-07-23)
Intellectual disability (ID) is a heterogeneous clinical entity and includes an excess of males who harbor variants on the X-chromosome (XLID). We report rare FAM50A missense variants in the original Armfield XLID syndrome ...
C9orf72 arginine-rich dipeptide proteins interact with ribosomal proteins in vivo to induce a toxic translational arrest that is rescued by eIF1A.
(SPRINGER, 2019-03-01)
A GGGGCC hexanucleotide repeat expansion within the C9orf72 gene is the most common genetic cause of both amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal dementia. Sense and antisense repeat-containing transcripts undergo ...
The BAF and PRC2 Complex Subunits Dpf2 and Eed Antagonistically Converge on Tbx3 to Control ESC Differentiation.
(CELL PRESS, 2019-01-03)
BAF complexes are composed of different subunits with varying functional and developmental roles, although many subunits have not been examined in depth. Here we show that the Baf45 subunit Dpf2 maintains pluripotency and ...
Landscape of the Plasmodium Interactome Reveals Both Conserved and Species-Specific Functionality.
(CELL PRESS, 2019-08-06)
Malaria represents a major global health issue, and the identification of new intervention targets remains an urgent priority. This search is hampered by more than one-third of the genes of malaria-causing Plasmodium ...
Eros is a novel transmembrane protein that controls the phagocyte respiratory burst and is essential for innate immunity.
(ROCKEFELLER UNIV PRESS, 2017-04-03)
The phagocyte respiratory burst is crucial for innate immunity. The transfer of electrons to oxygen is mediated by a membrane-bound heterodimer, comprising gp91phox and p22phox subunits. Deficiency of either subunit leads ...
Multiple short windows of calcium-dependent protein kinase 4 activity coordinate distinct cell cycle events during Plasmodium gametogenesis.
(ELIFE SCIENCES PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2017-05-08)
Malaria transmission relies on the production of gametes following ingestion by a mosquito. Here, we show that Ca2+-dependent protein kinase 4 controls three processes essential to progress from a single haploid microgametocyte ...
Genomic Determinants of Protein Abundance Variation in Colorectal Cancer Cells.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-08-29)
Assessing the impact of genomic alterations on protein networks is fundamental in identifying the mechanisms that shape cancer heterogeneity. We have used isobaric labeling to characterize the proteomic landscapes of 50 ...
Proteomic navigation using proximity-labeling.
(ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2019-07-15)
The identification of bona fide protein-protein interactions and the mapping of proteomes was greatly enhanced by protein tagging for generic affinity purification methods and analysis by mass spectrometry (AP-MS). The ...
