DIG-DUBs: mechanisms and functions of ISG15 deconjugation by human and viral cross-reactive ubiquitin proteases

Sign Up to like & get
recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Biochemical Society Transactions"

DOI: 10.1042/bst20240859

Abstract: Interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) is a ubiquitin-like protein and, as such, acts as a post-translational modifier that plays a critical role during bacterial and viral infections after interferon (IFN) production. As part of the innate… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences"

DOI: 10.1098/rstb.2023.0411

Abstract: The concept of episodic memory (EM) faces significant challenges by two claims: EM might not be a distinct memory system, and EM might be an epiphenomenon of a more general capacity for mental time travel… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2022/2501279

Abstract: Eukaryotic cells can initiate several distinct self-destruction mechanisms to display essential roles for the homeostasis maintenance, development, and survival of an organism. Pyroptosis, a key response mode in innate immunity, also referred to as caspase-1-dependent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1008709

Abstract: As the maternal–foetal interface, the placenta is essential for the establishment and progression of healthy pregnancy, regulating both foetal growth and maternal adaptation to pregnancy. The evolution and functional importance of genomic imprinting are inextricably… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Biological Chemistry"

DOI: 10.1515/hsz-2024-0038

Abstract: Abstract Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) can modulate the activity, localization and interactions of proteins and (re)define their biological function. Understanding how changing environments can alter cellular processes thus requires detailed knowledge about the dynamics of PTMs… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology"

DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2022.967875

Abstract: In multicellular organisms, cells must continuously exchange messages with the right meaning, intensity, and duration. Most of these messages are delivered through cognate interactions between membrane and secretory proteins. Their conformational maturation is assisted by… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2023 at "Frontiers in Immunology"

DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1065181

Abstract: Inflammasomes are multiprotein complexes, which are assembled in response to a diverse range of exogenous pathogens and endogenous danger signals, leading to produce pro-inflammatory cytokines and induce pyroptotic cell death. Inflammasome components have been identified… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms25137398

Abstract: The oral detection of sugars relies on two types of receptor systems. The first is the G-protein-coupled receptor TAS1R2/TAS1R3. When activated, this receptor triggers a downstream signaling cascade involving gustducin, phospholipase Cβ2 (PLCβ2), and transient… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.83044

Abstract: Gamma oscillations are believed to underlie cognitive processes by shaping the formation of transient neuronal partnerships on a millisecond scale. These oscillations are coupled to the phase of breathing cycles in several brain areas, possibly… read more here.
