Published in 2020 at "Methods in molecular biology"

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-0716-0389-5_23

Abstract: The proteasome complex is mainly responsible for proteolytic degradation of cytosolic proteins, generating the C-terminus of MHC I-restricted peptide ligands and CD8 T cell epitopes. Therefore, prediction of proteasomal cleavage sites is relevant for anticipating… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Methods in molecular biology"

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4939-7595-2_3

Abstract: Proteolytic cleavage of membrane proteins can alter their functions depending on the cleavage sites. We recently demonstrated that membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP ) converts the tumor suppressor EphA2 into an oncogenic signal transducer… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Molecular cell"

DOI: 10.1016/j.molcel.2017.03.013

Abstract: MicroRNA (miRNA) maturation is initiated by DROSHA, a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-specific RNase III enzyme. By cleaving primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs) at specific positions, DROSHA serves as a main determinant of miRNA sequences and a highly selective… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Bioconjugate chemistry"

DOI: 10.1021/acs.bioconjchem.8b00585

Abstract: Sequence-defined cationic lipo-oligomers are potent siRNA carriers, forming stable lipo-polyplexes based on both electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions and, after endocytosis and endosomal protonation, facilitating the delivery of siRNA into the cytosol. After completion of the… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Molecular Biology of the Cell"

DOI: 10.1091/mbc.e20-08-0524

Abstract: Most mitochondrial proteins are synthesized as precursors that carry N-terminal presequences. After they are imported into mitochondria, these targeting signals are cleaved off by the mitochondrial processing peptidase (MPP). Using the mitochondrial tandem protein Arg5,6… read more here.
