Article Synopsis
  • Ferritin-based hybrids are large macromolecules with potential uses in drug delivery and vaccines, but their design is complicated.
  • Researchers designed hybrids using ferritin from Helicobacter pylori and a Small Ubiquitin-like Modifier, discovering that their assembly was influenced by varying preparation methods.
  • They developed a quantitative model to analyze how different stoichiometries affected the structure of these hybrids, revealing unexpected patterns and establishing a framework for better design of ferritin-based systems.

Article Synopsis
  • Actin exists in three forms: monomeric globular (G-actin), polymeric fibrillar (F-actin), and an inactivated form called I-actin, which forms without cellular folding machinery.
  • The transformation from G-actin to I-actin can occur through various methods, including removal of divalent ions, mild denaturants, or heat, and I-actin can aggregate into oligomers of about 14-16 G-actin monomers.
  • This study uses small-angle X-ray scattering to investigate the oligomerization process of I-actin, distinguishing it from F-actin and revealing a unique pathway of oligomer formation.

Methods for targeting enzymes exhibiting anticancer properties, such as methionine γ-lyase (MGL), have not yet been sufficiently developed. Here, we present the data describing the physico-chemical properties and cytotoxic effect of fusion protein MGL-S3 - MGL from Clostridium sporogenes translationally fused to S3 domain of the viral growth factor of smallpox. MGL-S3 has methioninase activity comparable to native MGL.

F-type ATP synthases play a key role in oxidative and photophosphorylation processes generating adenosine triphosphate (ATP) for most biochemical reactions in living organisms. In contrast to the mitochondrial FF-ATP synthases, those of chloroplasts are known to be mostly monomers with approx. 15% fraction of oligomers interacting presumably non-specifically in a thylakoid membrane.

Proteorhodopsins (PRs), bacterial light-driven outward proton pumps comprise the first discovered and largest family of rhodopsins, they play a significant role in life on the Earth. A big remaining mystery was that up-to-date there was no described bacterial rhodopsins pumping protons at acidic pH despite the fact that bacteria live in different pH environment. Here we describe conceptually new bacterial rhodopsins which are operating as outward proton pumps at acidic pH.

Article Synopsis
  • Ferredoxins are small proteins that help with important processes in living things, but a specific type called 3Fe-4S ferredoxins hasn't been studied much because they need special conditions to exist.
  • Scientists figured out the structure of two types of these ferredoxins, showing how they work with another protein called CYP143.
  • The study found that when FdxE connects to CYP143, it changes its shape a bit, which helps in making different kinds of important chemicals.
