Regulated Protein Degradation02:58

Regulated Protein Degradation

8.9K
It is vital to regulate the activity of enzymatic as well as non-enzymatic proteins inside the cell. This can be achieved either through creating a balance between their rate of synthesis and degradation or regulating the intrinsic activity of the protein. Both these regulation mechanisms play an essential role in the normal functioning of cells.
Protein degradation plays two important roles in the cells. It helps to protect cells from misfolded or damaged proteins before they lead to a...

Covalently Linked Protein Regulators

9.6K
Proteins can undergo many types of post-translational modifications, often in response to changes in their environment. These modifications play an important role in the function and stability of these proteins. Covalently linked molecules include functional groups, such as methyl, acetyl, and phosphate groups, and also small proteins, such as ubiquitin. There are around 200 different types of covalent regulators that have been identified.
These groups modify specific amino acids in a protein....

GTPases and their Regulation

9.8K
Guanine nucleotide-binding proteins (G-proteins), also known as GTPases, are a superfamily of proteins that regulate many cellular processes, such as cell signaling, vesicular transport, and the regulation of cell shape and motility. Mutation or dysfunction of these proteins can lead to disease. There are around 40,000 known G-proteins that can broadly be classified into two groups ‒  small G-proteins consisting of a single domain and large multi-domain G-proteins.
Large G-proteins,...

Switching of BJT01:22

Switching of BJT

861
Switching behavior in Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJTs) is a fundamental aspect utilized in various electronic circuits, particularly for digital logic applications like switches and amplifiers. In a typical switching circuit, a BJT alternates between cut-off and saturation modes, corresponding to the "off" and "on" states, respectively, thus behaving like an ideal switch.
Cut-off Mode ("Off" State): In this state, both the emitter-base and collector-base junctions are...

Area of Science:

  • Immunology
  • Molecular Biology
  • Cell Biology

Background:

  • Class switch recombination (CSR) is crucial for antibody isotype diversification during adaptive immune responses.
  • CSR involves DNA deletion-recombination events within switch (S) region DNA in B cells.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify novel regulators of class switch recombination (CSR).
  • To investigate the role of NM23/NDPK (NME) isoforms in CSR.

Main Methods:

  • Gene knockdown of NME1 and NME2 in B cells.
  • Analysis of CSR efficiency following NME knockdown.
  • Assessment of NME protein occupancy at S regions before and after stimulation.

Main Results:

  • Knockdown of NME2 decreased CSR, while knockdown of NME1 increased CSR.
  • NME1 and NME2 exhibit differential binding to S regions during CSR.
  • NME1 binds S regions pre-stimulation; NME2 binds post-stimulation.

Conclusions:

  • NME1 and NME2 are novel regulators of B cell class switch recombination.
  • Differential roles of NME isoforms are critical for proper CSR regulation.
  • This study reveals a previously unknown mechanism in antibody diversification.
