This project primarily investigates the interactome of SNX18, a key mediator protein in the degradation of extracellular vesicles (EVs), as well as the degradation efficiency of EGFR and PDL1 using an SNX18-LIR motif-based overexpression platform for targeted protein degradation.
Lei et al. screen out Lactococcus lactis OMVs (Lac-OMVs) and develop metabolic-engineered NAD+-Lac-OMVs nanovaccine with potent tissue repair therapeutic effect. NAD+-Lac-OMVs sequentially activate dendritic cells by membrane component and reprogram inflammatory macrophages for anti-inflammation and...
Low back pain (LBP), often caused by intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD), poses a major challenge in aging populations. DDX1, an RNA-binding protein, plays key roles in RNA metabolism but its function in IVDD remains unclear. We identify DDX1 as a non-histone substrate of lysine methyltransferas...
To identify the proteins within the EVs that play major roles in mediating EV sorting into lysosomes, we used a biotin-labelled method to monitor the proteomic change associated with EVs during their degradation.
