Abstract
Oil pollution is still a problem that is very difficult to control. To this end, this study investigates the application effect of microbial degradation technology in oil pollution control. First, the degradation microbial strains and substrates were determined according to the type of microorganisms. Then, ultraviolet spectrophotometry was used to determine the concentration of crude oil in the culture medium. After that, the authors designed the flow chart of crude oil standard curve, extracted organic phase, determined the residual oil composition in the culture medium, and calculated the degradation rate of mixed bacteria to crude oil. By studying the degradation mechanism of aerobic bacteria, anaerobic bacteria, and fungi, the degradation products were confirmed and the treatment of oil pollution on the water surface was carried out. It can be seen from the experimental results that the microbial degradation technology is effective in solving the problem of oil pollution.

[PMID: 33506611 PMCID: PMC8872633 DOI: 10.1111/febs.15728] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2020] [Revised: 12/24/2020] [Accepted: 01/25/2021] [Indexed: 07/24/2023]
Abstract
Protein cysteine palmitoylation, or S-palmitoylation, has been known for about 40 years, and thousands of proteins in humans are known to be modified. Because of the large number of proteins modified, the importance and physiological functions of S-palmitoylation are enormous. However, most of the known physiological functions of S-palmitoylation can be broadly classified into two categories, neurological or immunological. This review provides a summary on the function of S-palmitoylation from the immunological perspective. Several important immune signaling pathways are discussed, including STING, NOD1/2, JAK-STAT in cytokine signaling, T-cell receptor signaling, chemotactic GPCR signaling, apoptosis, phagocytosis, and endothelial and epithelial integrity. This review is not meant to be comprehensive, but rather focuses on specific examples to highlight the versatility of palmitoylation in regulating immune signaling, as well as the potential and challenges of targeting palmitoylation to treat immune diseases.

Abstract
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs), as an important component of the innate immune system, arise from a common lymphoid progenitor and are located in mucosal barriers and various tissues, including the intestine, skin, lung, and adipose tissue. ILCs are heterogeneous subsets of lymphocytes that have emerging roles in orchestrating immune response and contribute to maintain metabolic homeostasis and regulate tissue inflammation. Currently, more details about the pathways for the development and differentiation of ILCs have largely been elucidated, and cytokine secretion and downstream immune cell responses in disease pathogenesis have been reported. Recent research has identified that several distinct subsets of ILCs at skin barriers are involved in the complex regulatory network in local immunity, potentiating adaptive immunity and the inflammatory response. Of note, additional studies that assess the effects of ILCs are required to better define how ILCs regulate their development and functions and how they interact with other immune cells in autoimmune-related and inflammatory skin disorders. In this review, we will distill recent research progress in ILC biology, abnormal functions and potential pathogenic mechanisms in autoimmune-related skin diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), scleroderma and inflammatory diseases, as well as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis (AD), thereby giving a comprehensive review of the diversity and plasticity of ILCs and their unique functions in disease conditions with the aim to provide new insights into molecular diagnosis and suggest potential value in immunotherapy.

Palmitoyl Acyltransferase Activity of ZDHHC13 Regulates Skin Barrier Development Partly by Controlling PADi3 and TGM1 Protein Stability. J Invest Dermatol 2019; 140:959-970.e3. [PMID: 31669413 DOI: 10.1016/j.jid.2019.09.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2019] [Revised: 09/17/2019] [Accepted: 09/23/2019] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
Deficiency of the palmitoyl-acyl transferase ZDHHC13 compromises skin barrier permeability and renders mice susceptible to environmental bacterial infection and inflammatory dermatitis. It had been unclear how the lack of ZDHHC13 proteins resulted in cutaneous abnormalities. In this study, we first demonstrate that enzymatic palmitoylation activity, rather than protein scaffolding, by ZDHHC13 is essential for skin barrier integrity, showing that knock-in mice bearing an enzymatically dead DQ-to-AA ZDHHC13 mutation lost their hair after weaning cyclically, recapitulating knockout phenotypes of skin inflammation and dermatitis. To establish the ZDHHC13 substrates responsible for skin barrier development, we employed quantitative proteomic approaches to identify protein molecules whose palmitoylation is tightly controlled by ZDHHC13. We identified over 300 candidate proteins that could be classified into four biological categories: immunological disease, skin development and function, dermatological disease, and lipid metabolism. Palmitoylation of three of these candidates-loricrin, peptidyl arginine deiminase type III, and keratin fiber crosslinker transglutaminase 1-by ZDHHC13 was confirmed by biochemical assay. Palmitoylation was critical for in vivo protein stability of the latter two candidates. Our findings reveal the importance of protein palmitoylation in skin barrier development, partly by promoting envelope protein crosslinking and the filaggrin processing pathway.

Abstract
Protein lipidation, including cysteine prenylation, N-terminal glycine myristoylation, cysteine palmitoylation, and serine and lysine fatty acylation, occurs in many proteins in eukaryotic cells and regulates numerous biological pathways, such as membrane trafficking, protein secretion, signal transduction, and apoptosis. We provide a comprehensive review of protein lipidation, including descriptions of proteins known to be modified and the functions of the modifications, the enzymes that control them, and the tools and technologies developed to study them. We also highlight key questions about protein lipidation that remain to be answered, the challenges associated with answering such questions, and possible solutions to overcome these challenges.

Abstract
Recent years have seen a marked increase in our understanding of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). ILCs can be classified into different groups based on their similarity to T cell subsets in terms of their expression of key transcription factors and cytokine production. Various immunological functions of ILCs have been described, and increasing numbers of studies have implicated these cells in inflammatory disorders. Here, we detail the roles of ILCs in inflammatory diseases; we cover type 2 inflammatory diseases (such as asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis and atopic dermatitis), as well as inflammatory bowel diseases, psoriasis and other systemic or organ-specific inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Future directions in the field are discussed, together with potential avenues of treatment.

Abstract
Post-translational attachment of lipids to proteins is found in all organisms, and is important for many biological processes. Acylation with myristic and palmitic acids are among the most common lipid modifications, and understanding reversible protein palmitoylation dynamics has become a particularly important goal. Linking acyltransferase enzymes to disease states can be challenging due to a paucity of robust models, compounded by functional redundancy between many palmitoyl transferases; however, in cases such as Wnt or Hedgehog signalling, small molecule inhibitors have been identified, with some progressing to clinical trials. In this review, we present recent developments in our understanding of protein acylation in human health and disease through use of chemical tools, global profiling of acylated proteomes, and functional studies of specific protein targets.
