摘要:The 84 variant of human apolipoprotein E (APOE4) is a key genetic risk factor for neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease and elevated all- cause mortality in humans. Understanding the factors and mechanisms that can mitigate the harmful effects of APOE4 has significant implications. In this study, we find that inactivating the VHL- 1 (Von Hippel-Lindau) protein can suppress mortality, neural and behavioral pathologies caused by transgenic human APOE4 in Caenorhabditis elegans. The protective...

摘要:The design of organic-peptide hybrids has the potential to combine our vast knowledge of protein design with small molecule engineering to create hybrid structures with complex functions. Here, we describe the computational design of a photoswitchable Ca2+- binding organic-peptide hybrid. The designed molecule, designated Ca2+- binding switch (CaBS), combines an EF- hand motif from classical Ca2+- binding proteins such as calmodulin with a photoswitchable group that can be reversibly isomerize...

摘要:HIV- 1 envelope broadly neutralizing antibodies represent a promising component of HIV- 1 cure strategies. To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of combination monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) in a rigorous nonhuman primate model, we tested different combinations of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) neutralizing mAbs in SIVmac251- infected rhesus macaques. Antiretroviral therapy- suppressed animals received anti-SIV mAbs targeting multiple Env epitopes spanning analytical treatment interruption (...

摘要:The cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria is composed of a phospholipid bilayer made up of a diverse set of lipids. Phosphatidylglycerol (PG) is one of the principal constituents and its production is essential for growth in many bacteria. All the enzymes required for PG biogenesis in Escherichia coli have been identified and characterized decades ago. However, it has remained poorly understood how gram- positive bacteria perform the terminal step in the pathway that produces this essential lipid. ...

摘要:Climate change is impacting forests in complex ways, with indirect effects arising from interactions between tree growth and reproduction often overlooked. Our 43- y study of European beech (Fagus sylvatica) showed that rising summer temperatures since 2005 have led to more frequent seed production events. This shift increases reproductive effort but depletes the trees' stored resources due to insufficient recovery periods between seed crops. Consequently, annual tree ring increments have decl...

摘要:The stinkbug Riptortus pedestris, notorious for inducing soybean staygreen-like syndrome, employs a range of salivary proteins to manipulate the host plant for its benefit. Here, we show that RpSP1, a salivary protein specific to Pentatomomorpha, triggers plant defense responses in multiple plant species. RpSP1 interacts with and stabilizes a HSP40 family protein GmSPIP1 and is dependent on GmSPIP1 to induce cell death. We show that a critical 22-amino acid peptide within RpSP1 acts as an intr...
