Moonlighting proteins Hal3 and Vhs3 form a heteromeric PPCDC with Ykl088w in yeast CoA biosynthesis.
Unlike most other organisms, the essential five-step coenzyme A biosynthetic pathway has not been fully resolved in yeast. Specifically, the genes encoding the phosphopantothenoylcysteine decarboxylase (PPCDC) activity still remain unidentified. Sequence homology analyses suggest three candidates-Ykl088w, Hal3 and Vhs3-as putative PPCDC enzymes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Notably, Hal3 and Vhs...
متن کاملHuman connexin26 and connexin30 form functional heteromeric and heterotypic channels.
Mutations in GJB2 and GJB6, the genes that encode the human gap junction proteins connexin26 (Cx26) and connexin30 (Cx30), respectively, cause hearing loss. Cx26 and Cx30 are both expressed in the cochlea, leading to the potential formation of heteromeric hemichannels and heterotypic gap junction channels. To investigate their interactions, we expressed human Cx26 and Cx30 individually or toget...
متن کاملA Microfluidic Culture System for Analysis of Neurotoxicity of Oligomeric Assemblies of Amyloid Beta Proteins
ABSTRACT In this paper, we introduce a microfluidic system to analyze the effect of oligomeric assemblies of amyloid beta on neurons quantitatively with well-organized in vivo-like microenvironment. By generating extremely slow flow rate and gradient of oligomeric assemblies of amyloid beta, our microfluidic platform simulates the regulated intramembrane proteolysis (RIP), a convergence physiol...
متن کاملSeeding of proteins into amyloid structures by metabolite assemblies may clarify certain unexplained epidemiological associations
The accumulation of various metabolites appears to be associated with diverse human diseases. However, the aetiological link between metabolic alteration and the observed diseases is still elusive. This includes the correlation between the abnormally high levels of homocysteine and quinolinic acid in Alzheimer's disease, as well as the accumulation of oncometabolites in malignant processes. Her...
متن کاملInteraction of viral oncogenic proteins with the Wnt signaling pathway
It is estimated that up to 20% of all types of human cancers worldwide are attributed to viruses. The genome of oncogenic viruses carries genes that have protein products that act as oncoproteins in cell proliferation and transformation. The modulation of cell cycle control mechanisms, cellular regulatory and signaling pathways by oncogenic viruses, plays an important role in viral carcinogenes...
