Hsp90, DnaK, and ClpB collaborate in protein reactivation.

Hsp70, Hsp90, and ClpB/Hsp100 are molecular chaperones that help regulate proteostasis. Bacterial and yeast Hsp70s and their cochaperones function synergistically with Hsp90s to reactivate inactive and aggregated proteins by a mechanism that requires a direct interaction between Hsp90 and Hsp70 both in vitro and in vivo. and yeast Hsp70s also collaborate in bichaperone systems with ClpB and Hsp104, respectively, to disaggregate and reactivate aggregated proteins and amyloids such as prions.

Enhancing West African family medicine curriculum through entrustable professional activities.

The training of Family Medicine residents in the West Africa College of Physicians (WACP) has steadily upscaled to a competency-based approach over the years. The latest review of the curriculum (2022) includes self-directed online modules on clinical postings, health management, patient safety, quality assurance research and medical education among others. The operationalisation of the revised curriculum involves the use of workplace-based tools for formative assessments.

Neurophysiological Markers of Regulation Success in Everyday Life in Depression.

Background: Self-regulation often is disrupted in depression and is characterized by negative affect and inflexible parasympathetic responses. Yet, our understanding of brain mechanisms of self-regulatory processes largely has been limited to laboratory contexts. Measuring individual differences in self-regulatory processes in everyday life - and their neural correlates - could inform our understanding of depression phenotypes and reveal novel intervention targets that impact everyday functioning.

Flap endonuclease 1 repairs DNA-protein cross-links via ADP-ribosylation-dependent mechanisms.

DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs) are among the most detrimental genomic lesions. They are ubiquitously produced by formaldehyde (FA), and failure to repair FA-induced DPCs blocks chromatin-based processes, leading to neurodegeneration and cancer. The type, structure, and repair of FA-induced DPCs remain largely unknown.
