Lactate as a Chemical Modification on Proteins and Metabolites
Lactate's role in biochemistry and physiology has attracted considerable biochemical interest for over a century. Beyond its classical description as a glycolytic byproduct, lactate is now recognized as a central energy metabolite, a red...

Nucleocytoplasmic Transport
Compartmentalization of the genome within the nucleus of eukaryotic cells emerged alongside a two-component molecular machinery for selective transport of macromolecules: a static yet conformationally flexible channel formed by the ∼120-...

Shaping of the Infant Gut Microbiome by Milk Oligosaccharides
The gut microbiome governs aspects of human growth and development. While human milk's primary purpose is metabolism, it also provides nonnutritious biologics and macromolecules. This mixture includes the human milk oligosaccharides (HMO...

Packaging of Single-Stranded RNA in Viruses and Virus-Like Particles
Our double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genomes are famously compacted by proteins in the nuclei of our cells, resulting in meters of dsDNA being confined in micron-sized volumes. The most prevalent form of viral genomes, however, is single-stra...

Proteostasis Deregulation by Metabolism Drives the Hallmarks of Cancer
Cancer cells acquire hallmark behaviors through adaptations that extend beyond genetic and epigenetic changes. Proteostasis—the biochemical network governing protein synthesis, folding, trafficking, and degradation—is a fundamental, yet ...

From Cancer, Malate–Aspartate Shuttle, RNA Replicase, and mtDNA to Trypanosomes and Back to Cancer Again
I studied medicine to become an endocrinologist but ended up in biochemistry. As a graduate student, I studied tumor mitochondria and discovered the malate–aspartate shuttle (the major route in animal cells for shuttling reducing equival...

JoAnne Stubbe's Radical Path: A Story of Passion, Curiosity, and Persistence
Massachusetts Institute of Technology Professor Emerita JoAnne Stubbe was the chair of Mary O'Reilly's thesis committee. Over a decade later, they became neighbors, and then a global pandemic made them friends. Here they attempt to summa...

Endogenous Sources of Abasic Sites and Implications for DNA Replication: Mechanisms of Fork Stalling and Recovery
Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites, also known as abasic sites, are among the most frequent DNA lesions, arising spontaneously or as intermediates in base excision repair. Their structural impediment to DNA replication fork progression, la...

Membrane Protein Insertion in Mammalian Cells
Integral membrane proteins play critical roles in mammalian cells, ranging from mediating cell–cell interactions to regulating apoptosis. These increasingly diverse functions necessitated the evolution of membrane proteins with more comp...

Radical Chemistry in Metalloenzymes: Bridging Inorganic Centers and Biological Catalysis
Radical chemistry, once deemed too reactive for biological systems, is delicately controlled within metalloenzymes to catalyze challenging chemical transformations under physiological conditions. This review explores the diverse strategi...
