The distinctive color of brown adipose tissue (BAT) is attributed to its high content of heme-rich mitochondria. Despite this, the mechanisms by which BAT regulates intracellular heme levels remain largely unexplored. Here, we demonstrate that heme biosynthesis is the primary source of heme in brown...
Anthropogenic organofluorine compounds are recalcitrant, globally distributed, and a human health concern. Although rare, natural processes synthesize fluorinated compounds, and some bacteria have evolved mechanisms to metabolize organofluorine compounds. Pseudomonas sp. strain 273 grows with...
In this project, we used biotin-labeled compound 1 to pull down proteins in U2OS cell lysates with or without the competition of free compound 1, and then to identify the cellular binding of compound 1.
