This study employs an integrated approach, combining <em>in silico</em> proteomics and <em>in vivo</em> investigations, to unravel the molecular mechanisms underlying Tacorin's wound healing properties. In the domain of <em>in silico</em> proteomics, the composition of Tacorin is elucidated through LC/MS-MS protein sequencing, revealing ananain (23.77 kDa) and Jacalin-like lectin (14.99 kDa) as its predominant constituents. Molecular protein-protein docking simulations unveil favorable interactions between Tacorin's components and key regulators of wound healing, including TGF-β, TNF-α, and MMP-2. The calculated free binding energies indicate strong binding affinities between Tacorin proteins and their target receptors. Specifically, ananain demonstrates a binding affinity of −12.2 kcal/mol with TGF-β, suggesting its potential as a potent activator of TGF-β-mediated signaling, while Jacalin-like lectin exhibits the most favorable binding affinity of −8.7 kcal/mol with TNF-α. Subsequent 100 ns molecular dynamics (MD) simulations provide insights into the dynamic behavior and stability of Tacorin-receptor complexes, shedding light on the molecular determinants of Tacorin's therapeutic effects. Complementing the <em>in silico</em> analyses, <em>in vivo</em> studies evaluate Tacorin's efficacy in wound healing using skin and uterine incision models. Tacorin treatment accelerates wound closure and promotes tissue repair in both models, as evidenced by macroscopic observations and histological assessments. Overall, this study provides compelling evidence of Tacorin's therapeutic potential in wound healing and underscores the importance of elucidating its molecular mechanisms for further development and clinical translation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8760,"journal":{"name":"Biochimica et biophysica acta.

However, current tools for identifying 3CL^pro cleavage sites are limited, particularly in <em>Gammacoronaviruses</em> (GammaCoV) and <em>Deltacoronaviruses</em> (DeltaCoV). This study aims to fill this gap by identifying 3CL^pro cleavage sites in these viruses to provide deeper insights into their pathogenic mechanisms. By integrating sequence alignments and structural model comparisons, we developed a position-specific scoring matrix (PSSM) based on self-cleavage motifs, revealing specific preferences for each residue. Utilizing AlphaFold2's predicted alignment error (PAE) and predicted local distance difference test (pLDDT), we found that most cleavage sequences are located in regions with high PAE and low pLDDT values. KEGG pathway analysis showed that potential host protein cleavage targets are mainly concentrated in pathways related to nucleo-cytoplasmic transport and endocytosis. Through <em>in vitro</em> cleavage experiments and mutational analysis, we identified and validated three high-scoring proteins—nucleoporin 58 (NUP58), cell division cycle 73 (CDC73), and signal transducing adaptor molecule 2 (STAM2). These findings suggest that 3CL^pro not only plays a vital role in viral replication but may also influence host cell functions by cleaving host proteins.

RT-PCR revealed that all mAbs consisted of kappa light chains and gamma heavy chains. DNA sequencing and bioinformatic analysis showed that the variable gene and protein sequences of their CDRs shared over 50 % identity with the existing databases. The 3D structures of the mAb variable fragments (Fv) with a QSQE score above 0.7 were constructed using the SWISS-MODEL platform. The structural accuracy was confirmed by Ramachandran plots, with 99 % of amino acid residues falling within acceptable regions. Thrombolytic cleavage of apoB-100 and Western blot analysis demonstrated that hLDL-E8 and hLDL-F5 specifically bind to the T3 fragment (aa 1297–3249), whereas hLDL-2D8 binds to the T4 fragment (aa 1–1297). These findings were supported with epitope-binding assays using inhibition ELISA, which indicated that hLDL-E8 binds at different epitopes from hLDL-2D8 and has some overlap with hLDL-F5. Lastly, the binding affinity of the mAbs was examined by indirect ELISA. The average affinity constants (K_aff) for mAbs hLDL-2D8, hLDL-E8 and hLDL-F5 are 1.51 ± 0.69 × 10⁹ Mol⁻¹, 7.25 ± 3.56 × 10⁸ Mol⁻¹ and 4.39 ± 2.63 × 10⁶ Mol⁻¹, respectively. Additionally, the behavior of the antibodies in the dose-response curve revealed that hLDL-F5 may recognize two epitopes of apoB-100 or have very low binding affinity. In contrast, hLDL-2D8 and hLDL-E8 each recognize a single epitope.

Autoreduction observed in the two isozymes, DHP-A and DHP-B, is explained by the high heme reduction potential and an endogenous source of electrons from methionine (Met) or cysteine (Cys). This study provides evidence of a connection to protein-heme crosslinking that occurs when DHP is activated by H₂O₂ in competition with substrate oxidation and autoreduction. The autoreduction yields of DHP-A and DHP-B are comparable and both are inversely proportional to DHP concentration. Both isoenzymes show an anti-cooperative effect on autoreduction kinetics associated with protein dimerization. Despite the presence of five tyrosine (Tyr) amino acids in DHP-A and four Tyr in DHP-B, the mass spectral evidence does not support a Tyr-heme or interprotein Tyr-Tyr crosslinking event as observed in some mammalian myoglobins. LC-MS and tandem MS/MS studies revealed three amino acids that were involved in the heme-protein crosslink, Cys73, Met63 and Met64. Cys73 facilitates dimer formation in DHP-A which also appears to slow the rate of autoreduction, but is not involved in covalent protein-heme crosslinking. Based on mutational studies, Met63 and 64 are involved in both covalent heme crosslinking and autoreduction. Proton-coupled electron transfer and crosslinking by Met to the heme may serve to regulate DHP function and protect it from uncontrolled oxidative damage.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8760,"journal":{"name":"Biochimica et biophysica acta.

All brain regions displayed greatly reduced levels of two CI structural subunits (NDUFS4, NDUFA12) and an increased level of the CI assembly factor NDUFAF2.
