MetabolomicsATAD3A has a scaffolding role regulating mitochondria inner membrane structure and protein assembly

The ATPase Family AAA Domain Containing 3A (ATAD3A), is a mitochondrial inner membrane protein conserved in metazoans. ATAD3A has been associated with several mitochondrial functions, including nucleoid organization, cholesterol metabolism, and mitochondrial translation. To address its primary ro...

MetabolomicsCardiac disruption of SDHAF4-mediated mitochondrial complex II assembly promotes dilated cardiomyopathy
Succinate dehydrogenase, which is known as mitochondrial complex II, has proven to be a fascinating machinery, attracting renewed and increased interest in its involvement in human diseases. Herein, we find that succinate dehydrogenase assembly factor 4 (SDHAF4) is downregulated in cardiac muscle in...

MetabolomicsDifferent regions of synaptic vesicle membrane regulate VAMP2 conformation for the SNARE assembly
Vesicle associated membrane protein 2 (VAMP2/synaptobrevin2), a core SNARE protein residing on synaptic vesicles (SVs), forms helix bundles with syntaxin-1 and SNAP25 for the SNARE assembly. Prior to the SNARE assembly, the structure of VAMP2 is unclear. Here, by using in-cell NMR spectroscopy, we d...

MetabolomicsThe patatin-like protein PlpD forms novel structurally dynamic homodimers in the Pseudomonas aeruginosa outer membrane

Members of the Omp85 superfamily of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) found in Gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria and chloroplasts are characterized by a distinctive 16-stranded β-barrel transmembrane domain and at least one periplasmic POTRA domain. All previously studied Omp85 proteins promote c...

MetabolomicsTFAM loss induces nuclear actin assembly upon mDia2 malonylation to promote liver cancer metastasis
The mechanisms underlying cancer metastasis remain poorly understood. Here, we report that TFAM deficiency rapidly and stably induced spontaneous lung metastasis in mice with liver cancer. Interestingly, unexpected polymerization of nuclear actin was observed in TFAM-knockdown HCC cells when cytoske...

MetabolomicsPhototrophic biofilm assembly in microbial-mat-derived unicyanobacterial consortia: model systems for the study of autotroph-heterotroph interactions
Microbial autotroph-heterotroph interactions influence biogeochemical cycles on a global scale, but the diversity and complexity of natural systems and their intractability to in situ manipulation make it challenging to elucidate the principles governing these interactions. The study of assembling p...

MetabolomicsPhospholipid acyl chain diversity controls the tissue-specific assembly of mitochondrial cardiolipins

Cardiolipin (CL) is a phospholipid specific for mitochondrial membranes and crucial for many core tasks of this organelle. Its side chain configurations are tissue-specific, functionally important and generated via post-biosynthetic remodeling. However, this process lacks the necessary specificit...

MetabolomicsSimultaneous Membrane and RNA Binding by Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus Capsid Protein

Tick-borne encephalitis virus is an enveloped, pathogenic, RNA virus in the family Flaviviridae, genus Flavivirus. Viral particles are formed when the nucleocapsid, consisting of an RNA genome and multiple copies of the capsid protein, buds through the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and acquires ...

MetabolomicsTEX44 CPT1B Axis Regulates Mitochondrial Sheath Assembly and Fatty Acid Oxidation in Sperm
Mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO) is essential for energy production and cellular homeostasis, yet its specific role in sperm function has remained unclear. Through whole-exome sequencing of 673 patients with asthenozoospermia, we identified biallelic TEX44 variants in six individuals, all ...

Mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO) is essential for energy production and cellular homeostasis, yet its specific role in sperm function has remained unclear. Through whole-exome sequencing of 673800 patients with asthenozoospermia, we identified biallelic TEX44 variants in six individuals...
