Autolysis is an important physiological process found in fungal cultivation. However, there is hitherto no report on the autolysis of Pleurotus tuber-regium. We have investigated the enzymes secreted by temperature-induced (40°C as treatment versus 10°C as control) autolysis of the mycelium of P. tuber-regium grown in submerged cultivation. A comparison between the intracellular proteins (inside the mycelium) and the extracellular proteins (in the culture medium) of the treatment and control by proteomic analysis involving 2D PAGE and MALDI-TOF-MS was made. Twenty-two up-regulated protein spots were detected and eight proteins were identified. They included proteasome which participates in the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway; β-1,3-glucanosyltransferase and tubulin which are involved in the renewal and repair of cell wall; protease and endoglucanase which promote the natural degradation of cell wall and cytoplasm; 14-3-3 protein which takes part in cell signal transduction; and two putative proteins presumably relate to the autolysis process. These identified proteins suggest partially the metabolic processes of the autolysis in the P. tuber-regium mycelium.

The globalization of the food industry chain and the increasing complexity of the food supply chain present significant challenges for food authenticity and raw material processing. Food authenticity identification now extends beyond mere adulteration recognition to include quality evaluation, label compliance, traceability determination, and other quality-related aspects. Consequently, the development of high-throughput, accurate, and rapid analytical techniques is essential to meet these diversified needs.

Ligand-Independent Vitamin D Receptor Actions Essential for Keratinocyte Homeostasis in the Skin.

Recently, we demonstrated that the alopecia observed in vitamin D receptor gene-deficient (-KO) rats is not seen in rats with a mutant VDR(R270L/H301Q), which lacks ligand-binding ability, suggesting that the ligand-independent action of VDR plays a crucial role in maintaining the hair cycle. Since -KO rats also showed abnormalities in the skin, the relationship between alopecia and skin abnormalities was examined. To clarify the mechanism of actions of vitamin D and VDR in the skin, protein composition, and gene expression patterns in the skin were compared among -KO, -R270L/H301Q, and wild-type (WT) rats.

Over recent decades, Northern Patagonia in Chile has seen significant growth in agriculture, livestock, forestry, and aquaculture, disrupting lake ecosystems and threatening native species. These environmental changes offer a chance to explore how anthropization impacts zooplankton communities from a molecular-ecological perspective. This study assessed the anthropogenic impact on by comparing its proteomes from two lakes: Llanquihue (anthropized) and Icalma (oligotrophic).

Monkeypox (MPOX) is a zoonotic viral disease caused by the Monkeypox virus (MPXV), which has become the most significant public health threat within the genus since the eradication of the Variola virus (VARV). Despite the extensive attention MPXV has garnered, little is known about its clinical manifestations in humans. In this study, a high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) approach was employed to investigate the transcriptional and metabolic responses of HEK293T cells to the MPXV A5L protein.
