Interestingly, this strategy has gained huge importance in recent decades, leading to substantial advancements in the biomedical field, including drug delivery, biosensing, tissue engineering, etc. The unique role of “FF” moiety in promoting self-aggregation in larger proteins is well established owing to its frequent occurrence in amyloids. This finding comes as a breakthrough in peptide nanotechnology research leading to the exploration of various peptide-based supramolecular structures demonstrating exceptional functional roles with futuristic applications. In this regard, since amino acids are the building blocks of peptides, the detailed investigation and discussion regarding their self-assembly behavior are expected to provide important insights into designing advanced functional materials from amino acids and peptides. This review provides a systematic overview of various latest findings on amino acid–based self-assembly and its pathological as well as functional role.

In this article, a photoactivatable alkyne tag is developed by modifying an unstable intermediate of the alkyne-forming reaction with a photodegradable protecting group; the photodegradation triggers the conversion of the intermediate into a linear alkyne in an aqueous solution. The developed photoactivatable alkyne tag is incorporated into a cholesterol analog, introduced into living cells, and exposed to a biocompatible dose of 365 nm light. Subsequently, the cholesterol analog in light-irradiated cells is microscopically visualized through alkyne-specific biotinylation via copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition and biotin-specific labeling with fluorescence-labeled streptavidin. The obtained results indicate that the photoactivatable alkyne tag can be photoconverted into alkyne derivatives inside cells and applied to the light-induced intracellular imaging of biomolecules. This photoactivatable chemical tag can potentially expand the range of applications of light-induced molecular imaging of various biomolecules.","PeriodicalId":140,"journal":{"name":"ChemBioChem","volume":" ","pages":"e2500190"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144075146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, several aspects of this enzyme remain unexplored, such as its activity with industrial organophosphates, its molecular structure, and its thermostability. In this work, the crystal structure of C-PTE is reported, which is solved to 2.3 Å resolution, providing insight into the enzyme's mechanism of action, revealing a binuclear Zn2+ active site and distant similarity to other phosphotriesterases from the amidohydrolase superfamily. It is shown that C-PTE catalyzes the hydrolysis of the OP plasticizers triphenyl phosphate (TPhP) and tris(2-chloropropyl) phosphate (TCPP), albeit with low efficiency, but not the sterically bulkier tri-o-tolyl phosphate (ToTP). Finally, it is demonstrated that, even though Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS-3 is not a thermophile, C-PTE exhibits remarkable thermostability and retains structure up to 90 °C. Overall, these findings advance the understanding of C-PTE, suggesting that it is a good candidate for engineering owing to its thermostability and that it could contribute to bioremediation strategies to reduce the impact of pollution by industrial organophosphates.","PeriodicalId":140,"journal":{"name":"ChemBioChem","volume":"26 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cbic.202500055","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143957507","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Folic acid and folate-loaded nanoparticles are extensively evaluated for sustained release and enhanced stability of the molecule; however, malfunctioning of proton-coupled folate transporters (PCFTs) present on the intestinal cells and subsequent folate deficiency remain a major issue in this context. This study provides the first demonstration where cell-penetrating peptide-conjugated folic acid mediates PCFT-independent folic acid permeabilization and intracellular bioavailability in vitro in the intestinal cells and macrophages. Cyclic-transactivating transcriptional activator (cTAT) folic acid conjugates are prepared by solid-phase peptide synthesis and are evaluated for the cellular uptake and bioavailability in the presence and absence of PCFT inhibitors. Compared with free folic acid that showed PCFT-mediated cellular uptake, cTAT-folic acid conjugates exhibited enhanced cellular uptake at all studied pH and improved intracellular bioavailability of the cargo, as was determined by dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) assay. Folic acid and cTAT-folic acid conjugates also dampened the production of proinflammatory mediators in the presence of toxins in vitro in macrophage cell lines.","PeriodicalId":140,"journal":{"name":"ChemBioChem","volume":"26 13","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/cbic.202500242","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143951597","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, there is a critical need to precisely address the gap in the biochemical and physiological mechanisms that underlie neurodegenerative diseases to promote advancements in therapeutic interventions. Parkinson's Disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer's, demands further research focused on unravelling the rather intricate molecular mechanisms that drive its progression upon different cell signaling cues. While alpha-synuclein aggregation and mitochondrial dysfunction are two cellular hallmarks of the molecular pathophysiology of PD, few drugs are currently in clinical trials for treatment of PD, which warrants further studies to identify new therapeutic molecular targets. Herein, we briefly highlight some of the reported roles of ferroptosis, a modality of cell death that is driven by iron-dependent phospholipid peroxidation, and its regulation by glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). We discuss the interconnectedness between lipid peroxidation and GPX4 regulation in the context of molecular pathogenesis of PD. Future studies are imperative in investigating the physiological role of ferroptosis and the translational impact of ferroptosis-specific modulators in studying PD biology.","PeriodicalId":140,"journal":{"name":"ChemBioChem","volume":"26 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143938892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
