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 ...
The Citrobacter rodentium type III secretion system effector EspO affects mucosal damage repair and antimicrobial responses.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2018-10-01)
Infection with Citrobacter rodentium triggers robust tissue damage repair responses, manifested by secretion of IL-22, in the absence of which mice succumbed to the infection. Of the main hallmarks of C. rodentium infection ...
An E2-ubiquitin thioester-driven approach to identify substrates modified with ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like molecules.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-11-14)
Covalent modifications of proteins with ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like molecules are instrumental to many biological processes. However, identifying the E3 ligase responsible for these modifications remains a major bottleneck ...
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 ...
UTX-mediated enhancer and chromatin remodeling suppresses myeloid leukemogenesis through noncatalytic inverse regulation of ETS and GATA programs.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-06-01)
The histone H3 Lys27-specific demethylase UTX (or KDM6A) is targeted by loss-of-function mutations in multiple cancers. Here, we demonstrate that UTX suppresses myeloid leukemogenesis through noncatalytic functions, a ...
Integrative epigenomics, transcriptomics and proteomics of patient chondrocytes reveal genes and pathways involved in osteoarthritis.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2017-08-21)
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common disease characterized by cartilage degeneration and joint remodeling. The underlying molecular changes underpinning disease progression are incompletely understood. We investigated genes and ...
Activation of the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Interferes with Early Embryonic Development.
(CELL PRESS, 2017-10-01)
The transcriptional program of early embryonic development is tightly regulated by a set of well-defined transcription factors that suppress premature expression of differentiation genes and sustain the pluripotent identity. ...
Delineating the HMGB1 and HMGB2 interactome in prostate and ovary epithelial cells and its relationship with cancer.
(Impact Journals, LLC, 2018-04-10)
High Mobility Group B (HMGB) proteins are involved in cancer progression and in cellular responses to platinum compounds used in the chemotherapy of prostate and ovary cancer. Here we use affinity purification coupled to ...
