Using a decapitation ischemia model, we studied translocation of proteins to and from the cytosol in normothermic (NT) and hypothermic (HT) rat brains. 2D gel analysis identified 74 proteins whose cytosolic level changed significantly after 15 min of ischemia. HT preserved the cytosolic levels of several glycolytic enzymes, as well as many plasticity related proteins, otherwise decreased following NT ischemia. The levels of redox-related proteins was lower in HT than in NT. Our results indicate that translocation of proteins to and from the cytosol is an important issue during ischemia.

Background: Bed bugs are blood-feeders that rapidly proliferate into large indoor infestations. Their bites can cause allergies, secondary infections and psychological stress, among other problems. Although several tactics for their management have been used, bed bugs continue to spread worldwide wherever humans reside.

Vacuolization of hematopoietic precursors cells is a common future of several otherwise non-related clinical settings such as VEXAS, Chediak-Higashi syndrome and Danon disease. Although these disorders have a priori nothing to do with one other from a clinical point of view, all share abnormal vacuolization in different cell types including cells of the erythroid/myeloid lineage that is likely the consequence of moderate to drastic dysfunctions in the ubiquitin proteasome system and/or the endo-lysosomal pathway. Indeed, the genes affected in these three diseases UBA1, LYST or LAMP2 are known to be direct or indirect regulators of lysosome trafficking and function and/or of different modes of autophagy.

Identification and analysis of repetitive elements (motifs) in DNA, RNA, and protein macromolecules is an important step in studying structure and functions of these biopolymers. Functional role of NA-BSE (non-adjacent base-stacking element, a widespread tertiary structure motif in various RNAs) in RNA-RNA interactions at various stages of the ribosome function during translation has been investigated in this work. Motifs of this type have been described to date that are reversibly formed during mRNA decoding, moving of the ribosome subunits relative to each other, and moving mRNA and tRNA along the ribosome during translocation.

Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular and parasitic protozoon that harbors specialized cellular structures and molecular mechanisms, including the Plant-like Vacuolar Compartment (PLVAC). The PLVAC performs multifaceted roles in the parasite, contributing to ion homeostasis, proteolysis, pH regulation, and autophagy. Despite significant efforts over the past decade to characterize the PLVAC, the proteins localized to this organelle remain largely unidentified.

Truncated hemoglobins (TrHbs) have an ancient origin and are widely distributed in microorganisms where they often serve roles other than dioxygen transport and storage. In extremophiles, these small heme proteins must have features that secure function under challenging conditions: at minimum, they must be folded, retain the heme group, allow substrates to access the heme cavity, and maintain their quaternary structure if present and essential. The genome of the obligate psychropiezophile Shewanella benthica strain KT99 harbors a gene for a TrHb belonging to a little-studied clade of globins (subgroup 2 of group N).
