During PINK1- and Parkin-mediated mitophagy, autophagy adaptors are recruited to damaged mitochondria to promote their selective degradation. Autophagy adaptors such as optineurin (OPTN) and NDP52 ...

Immuno-Metabolic Mechanisms of Atherosclerosis (2020) Atherosclerosis remains a leading cause of death worldwide, characterised by plaque build-up in artery walls. Dysregulation of lipid homeostasis ...

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a phospholipid mainly enriched in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane; however, its role in the nucleus remains unclear. This study describes the presence of PS in the ...

imageimageThis study developed a systematic workflow leveraging transcriptomics and metabolomics to identify input signals for 41 transcription factors in E. coli. A systematic workflow was developed ...

Oocytes, female germ cells that develop into eggs, are among the longest-lived cells in the animal body. Recent studies on mouse oocytes highlight unique adaptations in protein homeostasis ...

Xenobiotics like drugs are recognised as key influencers of gut bacterial growth. Yet, their impact on the production of metabolites involved in microbiota–host interactions is largely unknown. Here, ...

imageimageThere are no cellular or molecular biomarkers diagnostic of myalgic encephalomyelitis (also known as chronic fatigue syndrome [ME/CFS]). We find hundreds of blood-based traits are different, ...

De novo protein design is of fundamental interest to synthetic biology, with a plethora of computational methods of various degrees of generality developed in recent years. Here, we introduce ...

Peer ReviewDownload a summary of the editorial decision process including editorial decision letters, reviewer comments and author responses to feedback. This study presents and characterizes a Dnmt3a ...

Algorithms that constrain metabolic network models with enzyme levels to predict metabolic activity assume that changes in enzyme levels are indicative of flux variations. However, metabolic flux can ...

CAR T-cell therapy may lead to secondary malignancies, posing challenges to current pharmacovigilance concepts.

imageimageThis study identifies a pathway for oxidation and assembly of mitochondrial inner membrane proteins. Dbi1 is a conserved mitochondrial inner membrane protein that interacts with the ...
