Daniela Boassa et al.
A protein-fragment complementation assay (PCA) for detecting and localizing intracellular protein-protein interactions (PPIs) was built by bisection of miniSOG, a fluorescent flavoprotein derived from the light, oxygen, voltage (LOV)-2 doma...
Mutant-Specific Targeting of Ras G12C Activity by Covalently Reacting Small Molecules [0.03%]
小分子共价结合特异性靶向Ras G12C活性

Bilirubin is one of the most frequently measured metabolites in medicine, yet its physiologic roles remain unclear. Bilirubin can act as an antioxidant in vitro, but whether its redox activity is physiologically relevant is unclear because ...
Compartmentalized cAMP Generation by Engineered Photoactivated Adenylyl Cyclases [0.03%]

Because small-molecule activators of adenylyl cyclases (AC) affect ACs cell-wide, it is challenging to explore the signaling consequences of AC activity emanating from specific intracellular compartments. We explored this issue using a seri...
Activation of Caspase-6 Is Promoted by a Mutant Huntingtin Fragment and Blocked by an Allosteric Inhibitor Compound [0.03%]
突变型亨廷顿蛋白片段通过激活半胱天冬酶-6导致神经元死亡且其活性被异构调节抑制剂阻断

Dagmar E Ehrnhoefer et al.
Aberrant activation of caspase-6 (C6) in the absence of other hallmarks of apoptosis has been demonstrated in cells and tissues from patients with Huntington disease (HD) and animal models. C6 activity correlates with disease progression in...

In this issue of Cell Chemical Biology, Cook et al. (2019) report a new small-molecule activator that enhances osteogenesis and skeletal regeneration in developmental and adult animal models, respectively. This discovery has therapeutic pot...
Interactome Changes Quantified to Identify the ER Proteostasis Network to Fight Amyloid Diseases [0.03%]
量化互作组的变化以识别内质网蛋白质稳态网络对抗淀粉样疾病
Ya-Juan Wang,Ting-Wei Mu
Ya-Juan Wang
In this issue of Cell Chemical Biology, Plate et al. (2019) used quantitative interactome proteomics to define the molecular mechanism by which ATF6 activation reduces amyloidogenic protein secretion. These results shed light on preventing ...
