Cyanobacteria are among the main contributors to global photosynthesis and show a high degree of metabolic plasticity. Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 can grow under photoautotrophic, photomixotrophic or photoheterotrophic conditions. We have characterized a novel periplasmic protein (Slr0280) that tunes the photomixotrophic growth of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Slr0280 is a multi-domain protein consisting...
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect in humans, and the etiology of most CHD remains to be elusive. Atrial septal defect (ASD) makes up 30–40% of all adult CHDs and is thought to be genetically heterogeneous. Previous studies have demonstrated that mutations in transcription factors e.g. NKX2.5, GATA4, and TBX5 contribute to congenital ASD. In this study, we investigate a...
Monocyte-derived macrophages play a central role in atherosclerotic lesion formation and potentially plaque destabilization by expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs); however, mechanisms associated with stimulating MMP production are not clearly understood. EMMPRIN, which is expressed by human cancer cells and macrophages, present in human, mouse and rabbit atherosclerosis and noted to induce...
