Palmitoylated acyl protein thioesterase APT2 deforms membranes to extract substrate acyl chains

Matteo Dal Peraro, Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg, Florence Pojer, Laurence Gouzi Abrami, Maria Josefina Marcaida Lopez, Francisco De Magalhães Sarmento Ribeiro De Mesquita, Martina Audagnotto, Patrick Alain Sandoz, Sylvia Ho, Giulia Fonti, Muhammad Umair Anwar

Acyl protein thioesterase APT2 interacts with membranes via its charged beta-tongue, becomes palmitoylated by ZDHHC3/7 and deforms the bilayer to extract substrate acyl chains. APT2 deacylation leads to its membrane release and degradation. ...

Insights into the microbial reduction of pentavalent and hexavalent uranium species by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1

Margaux Camille Andréa Molinas

Decades of uranium-related activities such as ore mining, nuclear power generation, weapon manufacture, storage of nuclear wastes, have contributed to the release of U in the environment. U occurrence is concerning, since in surface environments, U is typi ...

Cluster Catalysis with Lattice Oxygen: Tracing Oxygen Transport from a Magnetite (001) Support onto Small Pt Clusters

Wolfgang Harbich, Giulia Elisabetta Pacchioni, Ke Zhang

Oxidation catalysis on reducible oxide-supported small metal clusters often involves lattice oxygen. The present work aims at differentiating whether the reaction takes place at the cluster/support interface or on the cluster. To that purpose, we trace the ...

Detection of myocardial medium‐chain fatty acid oxidation and tricarboxylic acid cycle activity with hyperpolarized [1– 13 C]octanoate

Arnaud Comment, Josefina Adriana Maria Bastiaansen, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara

Under normal conditions, the heart mainly relies on fatty acid oxidation to meet its energy needs. Changes in myocardial fuel preference are noted in the diseased and failing heart. The magnetic resonance signal enhancement provided by spin hyperpolarizati ...

Mono-, Di- and Tetra-iron Complexes with Selenium or Sulphur Functionalized Vinyliminium Ligands: Synthesis, Structural Characterization and Antiproliferative Activity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lucinda Kate Batchelor

A series of diiron/tetrairon compounds containing a S- or a Se-function (2a-d, 4a-d, 5a-b, 6), and the monoiron [FeCp(CO){SeC1(NMe2)(CHC3)-H-2(Me)}] (3) were prepared from the diiron mu-vinyliminium precursors [Fe2Cp2(CO)( mu-CO){mu-eta(1): eta(3)-C-3(R')( ...

Pivotal role of the redox-active tyrosine in driving the water splitting catalyzed by photosystem II

Leonardo Guidoni, Daniele Narzi

Photosynthetic water oxidation is catalyzed by the Mn4Ca cluster in photosystem II (PSII). The nearby redox-active tyrosine (Y-Z) serves as a direct electron acceptor of the Mn4Ca cluster and it forms a low-barrier H-bond (LBHB) with a neighboring histidin ...

PHD3 Loss Promotes Exercise Capacity and Fat Oxidation in Skeletal Muscle

Johan Auwerx, Hao Li, Daniel Garcia

Rapid alterations in cellular metabolism allow tissues to maintain homeostasis during changes in energy availability. The central metabolic regulator acetyl-CoA carboxylase 2 (ACC2) is robustly phosphorylated during cellular energy stress by AMP-activated ...

Accessing the plus IV Oxidation State in Molecular Complexes of Praseodymium

Marinella Mazzanti, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Ivica Zivkovic, Aurélien René Willauer, Chad Thomas Palumbo

Out of the 14 lanthanide (Ln) ions, molecular complexes of Ln(IV) were known only for cerium and more recently terbium. Here we demonstrate that the +IV oxidation state is also accessible for the large praseodymium (Pr) cation. The oxidation of the tetraki ...

Stabilization of the Oxidation State plus IV in Siloxide-Supported Terbium Compounds

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Ivica Zivkovic, Aurélien René Willauer, Chad Thomas Palumbo

The synthesis of lanthanides other than cerium in the oxidation state +IV has remained a desirable but unmet target until recently, when two examples of Tb-IV with saturated coordination spheres were isolated. Here we report the third example of an isolate ...

In vivo detection of d-amino acid oxidase with hyperpolarized d-[1-C-13]alanine

Rolf Gruetter, Hikari Ananda Infinity Yoshihara, Alice Radaelli

d-amino acid oxidase (DAO) is a peroxisomal enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative deamination of several neutral and basic d-amino acids to their corresponding alpha-keto acids. In most mammalian species studied, high DAO activity is found in the kidney, liv ...
