Molecular recognition of the HIV-1 neutralizing MPER epitope reconstituted in membranes. Contribution of lipid composition and transmembrane domain inclusion.
(2022-04-08)
GIBaren gainazalean kokatzen den Env proteina da birusaren infekzioa hasteko gertatu behar den birusaren eta itu zelularen mintzen arteko fusioa eragiten duena eta immunitate sistemarentzako eskuragarri dagoen proteina ...
Descubrimiento de nuevas dianas terapéuticas en cáncer de mama basado en el análisis de metilación del ARNm.
(2022-04-07)
N6-metiladenosina (m6A) es una de las modificaciones más abundante del ARNm presente en los organismos eucariotas. Distintos estudios han revelado que la modificación m6A está involucrada en la regulación de la mayoría de ...
Regulation of macrophage and preadipocyte proliferation and migration by C1P
(2022-03-25)
Chronic inflammatory diseases are the most significant cause of death in the world. Indeed, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), 3 out of 5 people die due to chronic inflammatory diseases such as stroke, chronic ...
The P. aeruginosa effector Tse5 forms membrane pores disrupting the membrane potential of intoxicated bacteria
(Nature, 2022)
The type VI secretion system (T6SS) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa injects effector proteins into neighbouring competitors and host cells, providing a fitness advantage that allows this opportunistic nosocomial pathogen to ...
Functional Delineation of a Protein–Membrane Interaction Hotspot Site on the HIV-1 Neutralizing Antibody 10E8
(MDPI, 2022-09-15)
Antibody engagement with the membrane-proximal external region (MPER) of the envelope glycoprotein (Env) of HIV-1 constitutes a distinctive molecular recognition phenomenon, the full appreciation of which is crucial for ...
Erythrocyte Membrane Nanomechanical Rigidity Is Decreased in Obese Patients
(MDPI, 2022-02-08)
This work intends to describe the physical properties of red blood cell (RBC) membranes in obese adults. The hypothesis driving this research is that obesity, in addition to increasing the amount of body fat, will also ...
Plasma membrane effects of sphingolipid-synthesis inhibition by myriocin in CHO cells: a biophysical and lipidomic study
(Nature Research, 2022)
[EN] Suppression of a specific gene effect can be achieved by genetic as well as chemical methods. Each approach may hide unexpected drawbacks, usually in the form of side effects. In the present study, the specific inhibitor ...
Phase behaviour of C18-N-acyl sphingolipids, the prevalent species in human brain.
(Elsevier, 2022-11)
Lipidomic analysis of the N-acyl components of sphingolipids in different mammalian tissues had revealed that brain tissue differed from all the other samples in that SM contained mainly C18:0 and C24:1N-acyl chains, and ...
Liquid-crystalline, liquid-ordered, rippled and gel lipid bilayer phases as observed with nile red fluorescence
(Elsevier, 2022-10)
The basic matrix of cellular membranes consists of a double layer (bilayer) of phospholipids. Semisynthetic lipid bilayers are commonly used in biophysical studies of membranes. According to tem-perature and composition, ...
LC3 subfamily in cardiolipin-mediated mitophagy: a comparison of the LC3A, LC3B and LC3C homologs
(Taylor & Francis, 2022-12)
Externalization of the phospholipid cardiolipin (CL) to the outer mitochondrial membrane has been proposed to act as a mitophagy trigger. CL would act as a signal for binding the LC3 macroauto-phagy/autophagy proteins. As ...
