ReadAblation of H+/glucose Exporter SLC45A2 Enhances Melanosomal Glycolysis to Inhibit Melanin Biosynthesis and Promote Melanoma Metastasis
Solute carrier transporters are the second largest family of membrane proteins responsible for the transport of various substances such as saccharides, lipids, amino acids, and inorganic ions across cellular membranes (Zhang et al., 2019). One third of all solute carriers such as SLC2, SLC22, and SLC45 subfamily belong to the major facilitator superfamily clan (Chen et al., 2014; Perland et al., 2017).
ReadHybrid AI assistive diagnostic model permits rapid TBS classification of cervical liquid-based thin-layer cell smears
Technical advancements significantly improve earlier diagnosis of cervical cancer, but accurate diagnosis is still difficult due to various factors. We develop an artificial intelligence assistive diagnostic solution, AIATBS, to improve cervical liquid-based thin-layer cell smear diagnosis according to clinical TBS criteria.
ReadAblation of H+/glucose Exporter SLC45A2 Enhances Melanosomal Glycolysis to Inhibit Melanin Biosynthesis and Promote Melanoma Metastasis
Solute carrier transporters are the second largest family of membrane proteins responsible for the transport of various substances such as saccharides, lipids, amino acids, and inorganic ions across cellular membranes (Zhang et al., 2019). One third of all solute carriers such as SLC2, SLC22, and SLC45 subfamily belong to the major facilitator superfamily clan (Chen et al., 2014; Perland et al., 2017). The majority of major facilitator superfamily proteins are generated from a single two-transmembrane segment hairpin structure that triplicated to give a six two-transmembrane segment unit and then duplicated to a 12-two-transmembrane segment protein (Reddy et al., 2012). The most widely accepted working model for transporters is the alternating access mechanism with alternated facilitated access to binding sites on either side of the membrane (Diallinas, 2014).
ReadOrganic cation transporter 3 (Oct3) is a distinct catecholamines clearance route in adipocytes mediating the beiging of white adipose tissue
Beiging of white adipose tissue (WAT) is a particularly appealing target for therapeutics in the treatment of metabolic diseases through norepinephrine (NE)-mediated signaling pathways. Although previous studies report NE clearance mechanisms via SLC6A2 on sympathetic neurons or proinflammatory macrophages in adipose tissues (ATs), the low catecholamine clearance capacity of SLC6A2 may limit the cleaning efficiency.
ReadRole of the N-terminal lid in regulating the interaction of phosphorylated MDMX with p53
Murine double minute 4 protein (MDMX) is crucial for the regulation of the tumor suppressor protein p53. Phosphorylation of the N-terminal domain of MDMX is thought to affect its binding with the transactivation domain of p53, thus playing a role in p53 regulation. In this study, the effects of MDMX phosphorylation on the binding of p53 were investigated using molecular dynamics simulations.
