The consequence of ATP synthase dimer angle on mitochondrial morphology studied by cryo-electron tomography
Biochem J. 2024 Jan 2:BCJ20230450. doi: 10.1042/BCJ20230450. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMitochondrial ATP synthases form rows of dimers, which induce membrane curvature to give cristae their characteristic lamellar or tubular morphology. The angle formed between the central stalks of ATP synthase dimers varies between species. Using cryo-electron tomography and sub-tomogram averaging, we determined the structure of the ATP synthase dimer from the nematode worm C. elegans and show that the dimer angle differs from previously determined structures. The consequences of this species-specific difference at the dimer interfac...

Non-crosslinking advanced glycation end products affect prohormone processing
Biochem J. 2023 Dec 19:BCJ20230321. doi: 10.1042/BCJ20230321. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAdvanced glycation end products (AGEs) are non-enzymatic post-translational modifications of amino acids. and are associated with diabetic complications. One proposed pathomechanism is the impaired processing of AGE-modified proteins or peptides including prohormones. Two approaches were applied to investigate whether substrate modification with AGEs affects the processing of substrates like prohormones to the active hormones. First, we employed solid phase peptide synthesis to generate unmodified as well as AGE-modified protease su...

They are central to the organization of polarized cells and are deregulated in several cancers. aPKC recruitment to the plasma membrane compartment is crucial to their encounter with substrates associated with polarizing functions. However, in contrast with other PKCs, the mechanism by which atypical PKCs are recruited there has remained elusive until recently. Her...
