Evolutionary divergence of uric acid catabolic enzymes: structure–function constraints and genomic innovations across taxa

Uric acid degradation is a model for understanding how gene duplication, loss, and functional divergence drive metabolic evolution. In hominoids and uricotelic animals, uric acid is the terminal purine catabolite, whereas most other taxa further degrade it to allantoin and beyond. Comparative genomics and structura...

Building Life Block by Block

This thesis uses X-ray crystallography and cryo-EM to show how structure dictates specificity in two unrelated systems: the lipid signalling enzyme Autotaxin and the transcriptional coregulator Zincore, from a single enzyme pocket to a multisubunit complex controlling gene expression. Part A: Autotaxin and lipid signal...

Characterization of cross-family conserved fragments

In a companion study, we introduced ProDive and used it to identify 318,289 high-confidence cross-family segment correspondences across all 25,545 Pfam families. Here we characterize the pervasiveness and biophysical context of the resulting mapped fragment resource. Graph-based community analysis shows that segment re...

DMT1 Facilitates Heme-iron Absorption in Rats and Mice.

Mechanisms of heme-iron (HI) absorption remain uncertain. Heme is probably absorbed by receptor-mediated endocytosis; iron is then enzymatically liberated from heme within endosomes, or in the cytosol. If heme is catabolized in endosomes, a transporter, such as DMT1, would be required to export ionic iron into the cyto...

Collagen-mediated biofilm formation and fibrillar organization in Staphylococcus epidermidis

The symbiotic skin bacterium Staphylococcus epidermidis moisturizes human skin, contributes to protection against external pathogens, and supports innate immune stimulation. However, the interaction between collagen, a major skin protein, and S. epidermidis remains insufficiently explored. In this study, biofilm develo...

A structure-aware generative AI framework for revealing functional relationships in protein families

Significance Protein databases contain millions of rapidly accumulating sequences, while increasingly accurate 3D structure predictions provide unprecedented data for analysis. Predicted structures can also be encoded using a structure-focused alphabet alongside standard amino acid (AA) representations. We introduce a...

Single-molecule chromatin tracing reveals a diversity of megabase heterochromatin domains

Chromosomes fold into distinct domains that regulate transcription, replication and repair. In addition to well-characterized topologically associating domains (TADs) and compartments, the diversity of heterochromatin domains remains poorly defined at the sequence level. Here, using single-molecule tracing of nascent h...

Network analysis and species-specific siRNA design targeting MMP7 in feline chronic kidney disease

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common acquired disorder in older cats and is associated with tubulointerstitial fibrosis, chronic inflammation, hypoxia, oxidative stress, and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. Matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP7), a tubular epithelial-derived endopeptidase, has been implicated in r...

Integrating PBPK Simulation and In Vitro Pharmacodynamics to Model Efavirenz-Associated Hepatic Oxidative Stress in Pregnancy

Background: Certain antiretroviral drugs, including efavirenz, have been associated with mitochondrial and oxidative effects in hepatic cells, but quantitative translation from nominal in vitro concentrations to an in vivo effect-site concentration remains uncertain. Methods: A hypothesis-generating physiologically bas...
