The Structural Characterization and Bioactivity Assessment of Nonspecific Lipid Transfer Protein 1 (nsLTP1) from Caraway (Carum Carvi) Seeds
… no effort has been made to study caraway proteins and their potential pharmacological properties, including nonspecific lipid transfer protein (nsLTP), necessitating further research. The current study aimed to characterize nonspecific lipid transfer protein 1 (nsLTP1) from caraway seed, …

Cytotoxic Activity of Non-Specific Lipid Transfer Protein (nsLTP1) and Proteomic Evaluation of Heparin-Binding Proteins from Ajwain (Trachyspermum ammi) Seeds
… using small molecule extracts, leaving the protein’s bioactivity undiscovered. The present study demonstrated the antiproliferative activity of ajwain nsLTP1 in MCF-7, AsPC-1, and MCF10A cell lines and its structural stability in human serum and high-temperature conditions. The …

Structural Characterization and <em>in vitro</em> Antiproliferative Activity of Non-Specific Lipid Transfer Protein 1 (nsLTP1) from Fennel (<em>Foeniculum vulgare</em>) Seeds
<p>Non-specific lipid transfer proteins (nsLTPs) are cationic proteins involved in intracellular lipid shuttling, in growth and reproduction, as well as in defense against pathogenic microbes. Even though the primary and spatial structures of some nsLTPs from different plants indicate their similar …

Factors Influencing the Formation and Distribution of Cholesterol Esters in Human Plasma
… factors influencing the lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) and lipid transfer protein (LTP) reactions in plasma. These two plasma proteins play important roles in determining the formation and distribution of cholesterol esters in plasma.

Identification and characterization of host genes involved in regulating replication of brome mosaic virus
… (+)RNA viruses is that they all make use of host proteins to aid in their own viral replication. In particular, (+)RNA viruses use host intracellular membranes for their replication and lipid composition of these membranes is crucial for viral replication. I show here that BMV replication protein …

Protein-sphingolipid interactions and their role in immunity and disease
Sphingolipids are a diverse class of lipids involved in fundamental cellular processes. In addition to their role in membrane architecture, sphingolipids can act as bioactive molecules, regulate membrane protein function and be presented to the immune system as lipid antigens by CD1 family …

PROTEINi screens identify ORP9 as a novel regulator of KRAS-driven signalling
KRAS is one of the most frequently mutated proteins in cancer, driving the excessive activation of the downstream RAF-MEK-ERK cascade, alongside additional pathways that promote cellular proliferation, survival and migration. KRAS traffics to the plasma membrane in order to be activated and bind to …

Linking Architecture and Function of Endoplasmic Reticulum - Plasma Membrane Contact Sites
… and thereby promote cellular functions such as lipid metabolism, signalling and organelle biogenesis. The formation of cortical endoplasmic reticulum (cER) - plasma membrane (PM) contacts in budding yeast cells is mediated by a set of six conserved proteins. By combining correlative light and …
