Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) has become a dominant economic and health burden worldwide, and the role of autophagy in CAD requires further clarification. In this study, we comprehensively revealed the association between autophagy flux and CAD from multiple hierarchies. We explored autophagy-associated long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) and the mechanisms underlying oxidative stress-induced human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs) injury.

However, stoichiometric determination of protein complex subunits in their native states presents a significant challenge. This study addresses the limitations of current tools in accuracy and precision by introducing concatemer-assisted stoichiometry analysis (CASA).

Design: A multicentre cross-sectional study.
The E2/E3 hybrid enzyme UBE2O plays important roles in key biological events, but its autoubiquitination mechanism remains largely unclear. In this study, we determined the crystal structures of full-length (FL) UBE2O from Trametes pubescens (tp) and its ubiquitin-conjugating (UBC) domain. The dimeric FL-tpUBE2O structure revealed interdomain interactions between the conserved regions (CR1-CR2) and UBC.
