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. ...

Metabolic Needs and Capabilities of Toxoplasma gondii through Combined Computational and Experimental Analysis

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Stepan Tymoshenko

Toxoplasma gondii is a human pathogen prevalent worldwide that poses a challenging and unmet need for novel treatment of toxoplasmosis. Using a semi-automated reconstruction algorithm, we reconstructed a genome-scale metabolic model, ToxoNet1. The reconstr ...

Transcriptomic characterization of the enzymatic antioxidants FeSOD, MnSOD, APX and KatG in the dinoflagellate genus Symbiodinium

Thomas Krüger

Background The diversity of the symbiotic dinoflagellate Symbiodinium sp., as assessed by genetic markers, is well established. To what extent this diversity is reflected on the amino acid level of functional genes such as enzymatic antioxidants that play ...
