Dual-controlled optogenetic system for the rapid down-regulation of protein levels in mammalian cells

Patrick Andreas Gonschorek

Optogenetic switches are emerging molecular tools for studying cellular processes as they offer higher spatiotemporal and quantitative precision than classical, chemical-based switches. Light-controllable gene expression systems designed to upregulate prot ...

Single live cell monitoring of protein turnover reveals intercellular variability and cell cycle dependence of degradation rates

Andrea Brigitta Alber

Cells need to be able to precisely control their proteome composition in order to maintain homeostasis. This is of particular relevance in fast dividing cells, such as embryonic stem cells, since their global protein levels need to be doubled at each divis ...

Dynamic protein-chromatin interactions in heterochromatin and during the DNA damage response on the single molecule level

Andreas Linus Bachmann

Dynamic regulation of chromatin, a structure consisting of DNA and histone proteins, is mediated through histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) and effector proteins. HP1a and PRC2 are recruited to repressive PTMs (H3K9me3, H3K27me3) and enable he ...

ER-to-lysosome-associated degradation of proteasome-resistant ATZ polymers occurs via receptor-mediated vesicular transport

Maurizio Molinari

Maintenance of cellular proteostasis relies on efficient clearance of defective gene products. For misfolded secretory proteins, this involves dislocation from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) into the cytosol followed by proteasomal degradation. However, po ...

Parkin mediates the ubiquitination of VPS35 and modulates retromer-dependent endosomal sorting

Liliane Glauser, Elpida Tsika

Mutations in a number of genes cause familial forms of Parkinson's disease (PD), including mutations in the vacuolar protein sorting 35 ortholog (VPS35) and parkin genes. In this study, we identify a novel functional interaction between parkin and VPS35. W ...

An essential thioredoxin is involved in the control of the cell cycle in the bacterium Caulobacter crescentus

Camille Véronique Bernadette Goemans

Thioredoxins (Trxs) are antioxidant proteins that are conserved among all species. These proteins have been extensively studied and perform reducing reactions on a broad range of substrates. Here, we identified Caulobacter crescentus Trx1 (CCNA_03653; CcTr ...

DNA repair protein Rad18 restricts LINE-1 mobility

Priscilla Turelli

Long interspersed element-1 (LINE-1, L1) is a mobile genetic element comprising about 17% of the human genome. L1 utilizes an endonuclease to insert L1 cDNA into the target genomic DNA, which induces double-strand DNA breaks in the human genome and activat ...

Monomeric Huntingtin Exon 1 Has Similar Overall Structural Features for Wild-Type and Pathological Polyglutamine Lengths

Hilal Lashuel, John Blaine Warner IV

Huntington’s disease is caused by expansion of a polyglutamine (polyQ) domain within exon 1 of the huntingtin gene (Httex1). A popular hypothesis is that the Httex1 protein undergoes sharp conformational changes as the polyQ length exceeds a threshold of 3 ...

Biochemical and biophysical characterization of ruthenation of BRCA1 RING protein by RAPTA complexes and its E3 ubiquitin ligase activity

Paul Joseph Dyson, Laure Menin, Luc Patiny

RAPTA compounds, ([Ru(eta(6)-arene)(PTA)Cl-2], PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane), have been reported to overcome drug resistance in cisplatin resistant cells. However, the exact mechanism of these complexes is still largely unexplored. In this study, ...

Phosphorylation of α-synuclein is crucial in compensating for proteasomal dysfunction

Hilal Lashuel

α-Synuclein can be degraded by both the ubiquitin-proteasomal system and the chaperone-lysosomal system. However, the switching mechanism between the two pathways is not clearly understood. In our study, we investigated the mutual association between the b ...

Cytosolic Proteostasis Networks of the Mitochondrial Stress Response

Johan Auwerx, Vincenzo Sorrentino, Davide D'Amico

Mitochondrial stress requires timely intervention to prevent mitochondria' and cellular dysfunction. Re-establishing the correct protein homeostasis is crucial for coping with mitochondria' stress and maintaining cellular homeostasis. The best-characterize ...
