Abstract
Screening α-glucosidase inhibitors with novel structures is an important field in the development of anti-diabetic drugs due to their application in postprandial hyperglycemia control. Boldine is one of the potent natural antioxidants with a wide range of pharmacological activities. Virtual screening and biochemical inhibition kinetics combined with molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to verify the inactivation function of boldine on α-glucosidase. A series of inhibition kinetics and spectrometry detections were conducted to analyze the α-glucosidase inhibition. Computational simulations of molecular dynamics/docking analyses were conducted to detect boldine docking sites' details and evaluate the key binding residues. Boldine displayed a typical reversible and mixed-type inhibition manner. Measurements of circular dichroism and fluorescence spectrum showed boldine changed the secondary structure and loosened the tertiary conformation of target α-glucosidase. The computational molecular dynamics showed that boldine could block the active pocket site through close interaction with binding key residues, and two phenolic hydroxyl groups of boldine play a core function in α-glucosidase inhibition via ligand binding. This investigation reveals the boldine function on interaction with the α-glucosidase active site, which provides a new inhibitor candidate.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Due to its clinical and cosmetic applications, investigators have paid attention to tyrosinase (TYR) inhibitor development. In this study, a TYR inhibition study with acarbose was investigated to gain insights into the regulation of the catalytic function. Biochemical assay results indicated that acarbose was turned to be an inhibitor of TYR in a reversible binding manner and probed as a distinctive mixed-type inhibitor via measurement of double-reciprocal kinetic (Ki = 18.70 ± 4.12 mM). Time-interval kinetic measurement indicated that TYR catalytic function was gradually inactivated by acarbose in a time-dependent behavior displaying with a monophase process that was evaluated by semi-logarithmic plotting. Spectrofluorimetric measurement by integrating with a hydrophobic residue detector (1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonate) showed that the high dose of acarbose derived a conspicuous local structural deformation of the TYR catalytic site pocket. Computational docking simulation showed that acarbose bound to key residues such as HIS61, TYR65, ASN81, HIS244, and HIS259. Our study extends an understanding of the functional application of acarbose and proposes that acarbose is an alternative candidate drug for a whitening agent via direct retardation of TYR catalytic function and it would be applicable for the relevant skin hyperpigmentation disorders concerning the dermatologic clinical purpose.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
As rubber-like elastomers have led to scientific breakthroughs in soft, stretchable characteristics-based wearable, implantable electronic devices or relevant research fields, developments of degradable elastomers with comparable mechanical properties could bring similar technological innovations in transient, bioresorbable electronics or expansion into unexplored areas. Here, we introduce ultra-stretchable, biodegradable elastomers capable of stretching up to ~1600% with outstanding properties in toughness, tear-tolerance, and storage stability, all of which are validated by comprehensive mechanical and biochemical studies. The facile formation of thin films enables the integration of almost any type of electronic device with tunable, suitable adhesive strengths. Conductive elastomers tolerant/sensitive to mechanical deformations highlight possibilities for versatile monitoring/sensing components, particularly the strain-tolerant composites retain high levels of conductivities even under tensile strains of ~550%. Demonstrations of soft electronic grippers and transient, suture-free cardiac jackets could be the cornerstone for sophisticated, multifunctional biodegradable electronics in the fields of soft robots and biomedical implants.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to characterize the functions of the mitochondrial creatine kinases in the Chinese soft-shelled turtle Pelodiscus sinensis (PSCK-MT1 and PSCK-MT2) to characterize function in relation to hibernation. Computational prediction via molecular dynamics simulations showed that PSCK-MT1 had stronger kinase- and creatine-binding affinity than PSCK-MT2. We measured PSCK-MT1 and PSCK-MT2 levels in the myocardium, liver, spleen, lung, kidney, and ovary of P. sinensis before and after hibernation and found that the expression of these enzymes was the most significantly upregulated in the ovary. We enumerated the ovarian follicles and evaluated the physiological indices of P. sinensis and discovered that fat was the main form of energy storage in P. sinensis. Moreover, both PSCK-MTs promoted follicular development during hibernation. Immunohistochemistry was used to study follicular development and revealed that both PSCK-MTs were expressed primarily in the follicular fluid and granulosa layer before and after hibernation. We found that PSCK-MT1 and PSCK-MT2 could play important roles in ovarian follicular development under hibernation. Hence, both PSCK-MTs probably function effectively under the conditions of low temperature and oxygen during hibernation. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
The Chinese soft-shelled turtle, Pelodiscus sinensis (Reptilia: Trionychidae) is a typical seasonal breeding species and its spermatogenesis pattern is complex. In this study, the process of sperm cell development was studied using histology. The process of sperm cell development may be divided into six stages based on a combination of different cell types in the seminiferous epithelium. A close examination revealed two patterns of sperm cell development in the seminiferous tubules during the breeding season. The first is a normal sperm cell development pattern, in which the process of sperm cell development and maturation are completed in the seminiferous epithelium without round spermatozoa in the lumen. The second is rapid sperm cell development, in which the first batches of round spermatozoa fall off the seminiferous epithelium before they mature, thus beginning a second batch of sperm cell development. The round sperm cells are shed into the lumen and further mature in the seminiferous tubules and epididymis. This rapid sperm cell development process of the Chinese soft-shelled turtle is rare in other vertebrate species and may be an adaptation to cope with seasonal breeding. The results of this study provide insight into the theory of seasonal reproduction in reptiles.

Abstract
The soft-shelled turtle, Pelodiscus sinensis, is an important economic aquaculture species. Its reproduction exhibits seasonality; however, there is a lack of systematic studies focused on sperm maturation and epididymal storage. The testes and epididymides of P. sinensis were sampled from March to December. The seasonal reproduction and maturation of the spermatozoa were examined by anatomy, hematoxylin and eosin staining, AB-PAS staining, and immunohistochemistry. Spermatogenesis exhibited obvious seasonality in P. sinensis. It was found that the spermatogenic epithelium was most active during June to September, whereas the diameter of the epididymal tubules was smallest during June to October. As key enzymes of ATP metabolism, creatine kinases were highly expressed in the epididymal tubule epithelium during the breeding season, which may be important for the regulation of sperm maturation. In addition, the epididymal tubule epithelium changed with the season in June to September, the epididymal tubule epithelium proliferated to form villous structures, and secreted a large number of glycoproteins, which may be related to the rapid maturation of sperm during the breeding season. In conclusion, this study provided insights into the spermatogenesis of P. sinensis through histological analysis and enriched our understanding of reproduction in reptiles.

Abstract
Background:
Tyrosinase inhibitor developments have been widely attended by
investigators for their various applications.
Objective:
A combination of virtual screening of docking simulations and biochemical inhibition
kinetics was performed to find a new inhibitor of tyrosinase for the clinical application of an antipigment
agent.
Methods:
We conducted docking simulations to detect tyrosinase key binding residues and used the
detected binding residues to screen the NCBI PubChem database for probing tyrosinase binding
compounds. The serial inhibition kinetics and spectrofluorimetry measurements were performed to
validate the inhibitory effect on tyrosinase.
Results:
We have detected 200 candidates and categorized them into four clusters. Among them, we
successfully confirmed salsalate as a new inhibitor of tyrosinase measured by serial enzyme
kinetics. Salsalate was detected as a reversible inhibitor of tyrosinase displaying a typical mixedtype
inhibition manner (IC50 = 22.19 ± 1.01 mM; Ki = 19.98 ± 2.11 mM). Spectrofluorimetry
measurement by integrating with 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonate showed that salsalate mainly
induced a slight regional conformation distortion of the tyrosinase active site accompanied by a
slight hydrophobic disruption.
Conclusion:
Our study suggests that salsalate is a potential anti-pigment drug via inhibition of
tyrosinase activity and it might be applicable for dermatologic clinical application. Also, our study
enlarges an insight into the salsalate drug application.

Abstract
Euphausia superba (Antarctic krill) serine protease (ESP) was investigated to gain insights into the activity-structural relationship, folding behavior, and regulation of the catalytic function. We purified ESP from the krill muscle and characterized biochemical distinctions via enzyme kinetics. Studies of inhibition kinetics and unfolding in the presence of a serine residue modifier, such as phenylmethanesulfonyl fluoride, were conducted. Structural characterizations were measured by spectrofluorimetry, including 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonate dye labeling for hydrophobic residues. The computational simulations such as docking and molecular dynamics were finally conducted to detect key residues and folding behaviors in a nano-second range. The kinetic parameters of ESP were measured as KmBANH = 0.97 ± 0.15 mM and kcat/KmBANH = 4.59 s-1/mM. The time-interval kinetics measurements indicated that ESP inactivation was transformed from a monophase to a biphase process to form a thermodynamically stable state. Spectrofluorimetry measurements showed that serine is directly connected to the regional folding of ESP. Several osmolytes such as proline and glycine only partially protected the inactive form of ESP by serine modification. Computational molecular dynamics and docking simulations showed that three serine residues (Ser183, Ser188, and Ser207) and Cys184, Val206, and Gly209 are key residues of catalytic functions. Our study revealed the functional roles of serine residues as key residues of catalytic function at the active site and of the structural conformation as key folding factors, where ESP displays a flexible property of active site pocket compared to the overall structure.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We investigated melanogenesis- and anti-apoptosis-related melanoma factors in melanoma cells (TXM1, TXM18, A375P, and A375SM). OBJECTIVE To find melanoma associated hub factor, high-throughput screening-based techniques integrating with bioinformatics were investigated. METHODS Array CGH analysis was conducted with a commercial system. Total genomic DNAs prepared individually from each cell line with control DNA were properly labeled with Cy3-dCTP and Cy5-dCTP and hybridizations and subsequently performed data treatment by the log2 green (G; test) to red (R; reference) fluorescence ratios (G/R). Gain or loss of copy number was judged by spots with log2-transformed ratios. PPI mapping analysis of detected candidate genes based on the array CGH results was conducted using the human interactome in the STRING database. Energy minimization and a short molecular dynamics (MD) simulation using the implicit solvation model in CHARMM were performed to analyze the interacting residues between YWHAZ and YWHAB. RESULTS Three genes (BMP-4, BFGF, LEF-1) known to be involved in melanogenesis were found to lose chromosomal copy numbers, and Chr. 6q23.3 was lost in all tested cell lines. Ten hub genes (CTNNB1, PEX13, PEX14, PEX5, IFNG, EXOSC3, EXOSC1, EXOSC8, UBC, and PEX10) were predicted to be functional interaction factors in the network of the 6q23.3 locus. The apoptosis-associated genes E2F1, p50, BCL2L1, and BIRC7 gained, and FGF2 lost chromosomal copy numbers in the tested melanoma cell lines. YWHAB, which gained chromosomal copy numbers, was predicted to be the most important hub protein in melanoma cells. Molecular dynamics simulations for binding YWHAB and YWHAZ were conducted, and the complex was predicted to be energetically and structurally stable through its 3 hydrogen-bond patterns. The number of interacting residues is 27. CONCLUSION Our study compares genome-wide screening interactomics predictions for melanoma factors and offers new information for understanding melanogenesis- and anti-apoptosis-associated mechanisms in melanoma. Especially, YWHAB was newly detected as a core factor in melanoma cells.

Abstract
Yes-associated protein (YAP) regulates numerous cellular homeostasis processes and malignant transformation. We found that YAP influences ZO-1-mediated cell migration using E-cadherin-restored EC96 cells derived from gastric malignant AGS cells. Ectopic expression of E-cadherin enhanced straightforward migration of cells, in comparison to the meandering movement of parental AGS cells. In EC96 cells, YAP and ZO-1 expression increased but nuclear YAP levels and activity were reduced. Nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) mediated the increase in ZO-1 expression, possibly stabilizing cytoplasmic YAP post-translationally. Downregulation of YAP expression using siYAP RNA or stable knock-down inhibited straightforward cell migration by fragmenting ZO-1 containing tight junctions (TJs) but not adherens junctions, implying involvement of YAP in ZO-1-mediated cell migration. The association of YAP with ZO-1 was mediated by angiomotin (AMOT) because downregulation of AMOT dissociated YAP from ZO-1 and reduced cell migration. E-cadherin restoration in malignant cancer cells induced NF-κB signaling to enhance ZO-1 expression and subsequently stabilize YAP. At high expression levels, YAP associates with ZO-1 via AMOT at TJs, influencing ZO-1-mediated cell migration and maintaining TJ integrity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fibrinolytic protease from Euphausia superba (EFP) was isolated. OBJECTIVE Biochemical distinctions, regulation of the catalytic function, and the key residues of EFP were investigated. METHODS The serial inhibition kinetic evaluations coupled with measurements of fluorescence spectra in the presence of 4-(2-aminoethyl) benzene sulfonyl fluoride hydrochloride (AEBSF) was conducted. The computational molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were also applied for a comparative study. RESULTS The enzyme behaved as a monomeric protein with a molecular mass of about 28.6 kD with Km BApNA = 0.629 ± 0.02 mM and kcat/Km BApNA = 7.08 s-1/mM. The real-time interval measurements revealed that the inactivation was a first-order reaction, with the kinetic processes shifting from a monophase to a biphase. Measurements of fluorescence spectra showed that serine residue modification by AEBSF directly caused conspicuous changes of the tertiary structures and exposed hydrophobic surfaces. Some osmolytes were applied to find protective roles. These results confirmed that the active region of EFP is more flexible than the overall enzyme molecule and serine, as the key residue, is associated with the regional unfolding of EFP in addition to its catalytic role. The MD simulations were supportive to the kinetics data. CONCLUSION Our study indicated that EFP has an essential serine residue for its catalyst function and associated folding behaviors. Also, the functional role of osmolytes such as proline and glycine that may play a role in defense mechanisms from environmental adaptation in a krill's body was suggested.

Abstract
Arginine kinase is a crucial phosphagen kinase in invertebrates, which is associated to the environmental stress response, plays a key role in cellular energy metabolism. In this study, we investigated the Pb2+-induced inhibition and aggregation of Euphausia superba arginine kinase (ESAK) and found that significantly inactivated ESAK in a dose-dependent manner (IC50 = 0.058 ± 0.002 mM). Spectrofluorimetry results showed that Pb2+ induced tertiary structural changes via the internal polarity increased and the non-polarity decreased in ESAK and directly induced ESAK aggregation. The ESAK aggregation process induced by Pb2+ occurred with multi-phase kinetics. The addition of osmolytes did not show protective effect on Pb2+-induced inactivation of ESAK. The computational molecular dynamics (MD) simulation showed that three Pb2+ interrupt the entrance of the active site of ESAK and it could be the reason on the loss of activity of ESAK. Several important residues of ESAK were detected that were importantly contributed the conformation and catalytic function of ESAK. Our study showed that Pb2+-induced misfolding of ESAK and the complete loss of activity irreversibly, which cannot be recovered by osmolytes.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previously, we detected that chloride intracellular channel 1 (CLIC1) was involved in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD). OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed to use high-throughput screening (HTS) approaches to identify critical factors associated with the function of CLIC1 in knock-down cells. METHODS We down-regulated CLIC1 in human A549 cells via siRNA and then conducted serial HTS studies, including proteomics integrated with a microarray and the implementation of bioinformatics algorithms. RESULTS Together, these approaches identified several important proteins and genes associated with the function of CLIC1. These proteins and genes included tumor rejection antigen (gp96) 1, nucleophosmin, annexin I, keratin 1 and 10, FLNA protein, enolase 1, and metalloprotease 1, which were found using two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) proteomics. Separately, NTNG1, SEMA5A, CLEC3A, GRPR, GNGT2, GRM5, GRM7, DNMT3B, CXCR5, CCL11, CD86, IL2, MNDA, TLR5, IL23R, DPP6, DLGAP1, CAT, GSTA1, GSTA2, GSTA5, CYP2E1, ADH1A, ESR1, ARRDC3, A1F1, CCL5, CASP8, DNTT, SQSTM1, PCYT1A, and SLCO4C1 were found using a DNA microarray integrated with PPI mapping. CONCLUSION CCL11 is thought to be a particularly critical gene among the candidate genes detected in this study. By integrating the datasets and utilizing the strengths of HTS, we obtained new insights into the functional role of CLIC1, including the use of CLIC1-associated applications in the treatment of human diseases such as AD.

Abstract
During hibernation of Pelodiscus sinensis, sperm mature and are stored in the epididymis. We investigated seasonal changes in the morphology of epithelial cells of the epididymis of P. sinensis and changes in expression of cytoplasmic creatine kinase (CK). We found that the epididymal epithelium proliferates rapidly to form multiple layers from June to September, while the epididymal epithelial cells are arranged in a single layer from October to May. From the March before the mating period to the end of the mating period in September, a large amount of neutral glycoprotein is secreted in the epididymal epithelium and in the sperm aggregation area; after October, the glycoprotein in the epididymis decreases. At sperm maturation, cytoplasmic CK is expressed abundantly in the villous epithelium, which is formed by proliferation of epididymal epithelial cells. During hibernation and reproduction, the epididymal epithelium of P. sinensis exhibits different proliferation and secretion patterns as the animal adapts to two types of sperm storage. Cytoplasmic CK may participate in regulating the energy metabolism of the epididymal epithelium; it is an important enzyme for regulating sperm maturation.

Abstract
We investigated the tyrosinase-associated melanogenesis in melanoma cells by using OMICS techniques. We characterized the chromosome copy numbers, including Chr 11q21 where the tyrosinase gene is located, from several melanoma cell lines (TXM13, G361, and SK-MEL-28) by using array CGH. We revealed that 11q21 is stable in TXM13 cells, which is directly related to a spontaneous high melanin pigment production. Meanwhile, significant loss of copy number of 11q21 was found in G361 and SK-MEL-28. We further profiled the proteome of TXM13 cells by LC-ESI-MSMS and detected more than 900 proteins, then predicted 11 hub proteins (YWHAZ; HSP90AA1; HSPA5; HSPA1L; HSPA9; HSP90B1; HSPA1A; HSPA8; FKSG30; ACTB; DKFZp686DQ972) by using an interactomic algorithm. YWHAZ (25% interaction in the network) is thought to be a most important protein as a linking factor between tyrosinase-triggered melanogenesis and melanoma growth. Bioinformatic tools were further applied for revealing various physiologic mechanisms and functional classification. The results revealed clues for the spontaneous pigmentation capability of TXM13 cells, contrary to G361 and SK-MEL-28 cells, which commonly have depigmentation properties during subculture. Our study comparatively conducted the genome-wide screening and proteomic profiling integrated interactomics prediction for TXM13 cells and suggests new insights for studying both melanogenesis and melanoma.

Abstract
Agouti signaling protein (ASP) is a secreted paracrine protein that has been widely reported to function in melanogenesis and obesity and could potentially be a core protein that regulates the color and fatty phenotype of P. sinensis. In this study, we screened out interacting proteins of ASP by combined co-immunoprecipitation mass spectrometry (CoIP-MS), yeast two hybrid (Y2H) analysis, and computational predictions. We performed docking of ASP with its well-known receptor melanocortin receptor 4 (MC4R) to predict the binding capacity and to screen out actual ASP interacting proteins, CoIP-MS was performed where identified 32 proteins that could bind with ASP and Y2H confirmed seven proteins binding with ASP directly. CoIP-MS and Y2H screening results including PPI prediction revealed that vitronectin (VTN), apolipoprotein A1 (APOA1), apolipoprotein B (APOB), and filamin B (FLNB) were the key interacting proteins of ASP. VTN, APOA1, and APOB are functional proteins in lipid metabolism and various skin disorders, suggesting ASP may function in lipid metabolism through these partners. This study provided protein-protein interaction information of ASP, and the results will promote further research into the diverse roles of ASP, as well as its binding partners, and their function in different strains of P. sinensis.

Abstract
The expression and localization of different isoforms of creatine kinase in Pelodiscus sinensis (PSCK) were studied to reveal the role of PSCK isozymes (PSCK-B, PSCK-M, PSCK-S) under bacterial infection-induced immunologic stress. The computational molecular dynamics simulations predicted that PSCK-S would mostly possess a kinase function in a structural aspect when compared to PSCK-B and PSCK-M. The assay of biochemical parameters such as total superoxide dismutase (T-SOD), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malondialdehyde (MDA), catalase (CAT), and the content of ATP were measured along with total PSCK activity in different tissue samples under bacterial infection. The expression detections of PSCK isozymes in vitro and in vivo were overall well-matched where PSCK isozymes were expressed differently in P. sinensis tissues. The results showed that PSCK-B mostly contributes to the spleen, followed by the liver and myocardium; PSCK-M mostly contributes to the liver, followed by the myocardium and skeletal muscle, while PSCK-S contributes to the spleen and is uniquely expressed in skeletal muscle. Our study suggests that the various alterations of PSCK isozymes in tissues of P. sinensis are prone to defense the bacterial infection and blocking energetic imbalance before severe pathogenesis turned on in P. sinensis.

Abstract
The function of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1) has been gradually elucidated in several diseases, especially in various cancers. However, the role of ALDH1 in skin-related diseases has been mostly unknown. Previously, we found that ALDH1 is involved in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD). In this study, we used high-throughput screening (HTS) approaches to identify critical factors associated with ALDH1 in human keratinocytes to reveal its functions in skin. We overexpressed ALDH1 in human HaCaT keratinocytes and then conducted serial HTS studies, a DNA microarray and antibody array integrated with bioinformatics algorithms. Together, those tests identified several novel genes associated with the function of ALDH1 in keratinocytes, as well as AD, including CTSG and CCL11. In particular, GNB3, GHSR, TAS2R9, FFAR1, TAS2R16, CCL21, GPR32, NPFFR1, GPR15, FBXW12, CCL19, EDNRA, FFAR3, and RXFP3 proteins were consistently detected as hub proteins in the PPI maps.

Abstract
The inhibition of α-glucosidase is used as a key clinical approach to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus and thus, we assessed the inhibitory effect of α-ketoglutaric acid (AKG) on α-glucosidase with both an enzyme kinetic assay and computational simulations. AKG bound to the active site and interacted with several key residues, including ASP68, PHE157, PHE177, PHE311, ARG312, TYR313, ASN412, ILE434 and ARG439, as detected by protein-ligand docking and molecular dynamics simulations. Subsequently, we confirmed the action of AKG on α-glucosidase as mixed-type inhibition with reversible and rapid binding. The relevant kinetic parameter IC50 was measured (IC50 = 1.738 ± 0.041 mM), and the dissociation constant was determined (Ki Slope = 0.46 ± 0.04 mM). Regarding the relationship between structure and activity, a high AKG concentration induced the slight modulation of the shape of the active site, as monitored by hydrophobic exposure. This tertiary conformational change was linked to AKG inhibition and mostly involved regional changes in the active site. Our study provides insight into the functional role of AKG due to its structural property of a hydroxyphenyl ring that interacts with the active site. We suggest that similar hydroxyphenyl ring-containing compounds targeting key residues in the active site might be potential α-glucosidase inhibitors.

Abstract
Fucoidans are complex sulfated polysaccharides that have a wide range of biological activities. Previously, we reported the various effects of Fucus vesiculosus fucoidan on tyrosinase and B16 melanoma cells. In this study, to identify fucoidan-targeted proteins in B16 melanoma cells, we performed a proteomics study and integrated enzyme kinetics. We detected 19 candidate proteins dysregulated by fucoidan treatment. Among the probed proteins, the enzyme kinetics of two candidate enzymes, namely lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) as an upregulated protein and superoxide dismutase (SOD) as a downregulated enzyme, were determined. The enzyme kinetics results showed that Fucus vesiculosus fucoidan significantly inhibited LDH catalytic function while it did not affect SOD activity even at a high dose, while only slightly decreased activity (up to 10%) at a low dose. Based on our previous and present observations, fucoidan could inhibit B16 melanoma cells growth via regulating proteins/enzymes expression levels such as LDH and SOD known as cell survival biomarkers. Interestingly, both expression level and enzyme catalytic activity of LDH were regulated by fucoidan, which could directly induce the apoptotic effect on B16 melanoma cells along with SOD downregulation. This study highlights how combining proteomics with enzyme kinetics can yield valuable insights into fucoidan targets.

Abstract
Inhibition of α-glucosidase is directly associated with treatment of type 2 diabetes. In this regard, we conducted enzyme kinetics integrated with computational docking simulation to assess the inhibitory effect of raspberry ketone (RK) on α-glucosidase. RK bound to the active site of α-glucosidase and interacted with several key residues such as ASP68, TYR71, HIS111, PHE157, PHE158, PHE177, GLN181, ASP214, THR215, ASP349, ASP408, and ARG439, as detected by protein-ligand docking simulation. Subsequently, we confirmed the action of RK on α-glucosidase as the non-competitive type of inhibition in a reversible and rapidly binding manner. The relevant kinetic parameters were IC50=6.17±0.46mM and Ki=7.939±0.211mM. Regarding the structure-activity relationship, the higher concentration of RK induced slight modulation of the shape of the active site as monitored by hydrophobic exposure. The tertiary conformational change was linked to RK inhibition, and mostly involved regional changes of the active site. Our study provides insight into the functional role of RK due to its structural property of a hydroxyphenyl ring that interacts with the active site of α-glucosidase. We suggest that similar hydroxyphenyl ring compounds targeting the key residues of the active site might be potential α-glucosidase inhibitors.

Abstract
The pharaoh cuttlefish Sepia pharaonis is particularly sensitive to environmental changes in its breeding environment. The breeding of S. pharaonis larvae was carried out in different salinities for 48h, and the changes in survival rate, histological structure, energy metabolism, and anti-oxidative stress parameters were investigated and correlated with arginine kinase (AK) expression changes in muscle and liver tissues. The suitable salinity for larvae cultivation ranged from 24 to 30‰, and the survival rate showed a significant decline at 21‰ salinity. Histological observations of muscle and liver showed that changes in salinity and osmotic pressure had an adverse effect on tissue structure. Measurements of glycogen and lactic acid levels suggested that S. pharaonis could dynamically adjust energy metabolism to provide additional energy under unsuitable salinity. The protein levels and enzyme activities of AK in muscle significantly increased at 21‰ salinity. The results were consistent with prompt replenishment of phosphoarginine stores during salinity stress to maintain a dynamic ATP balance, suggesting that AK plays an important role in the regulation of energy metabolism. This study provides insight into metabolic changes during salinity stress and sheds light on the functional role of AK in S. pharaonis.

Abstract
In this study we conducted serial kinetic studies integrated with computational simulations to judge the inhibitory effect of pyrogallol on α-glucosidase, due to the association between this enzyme and the treatment of type 2 diabetes. As a result, we found that pyrogallol bound to the active site of α-glucosidase, interacting with several key residues, such as ASP68, MET69, TYR71, PHE157, PHE158, PHE177, GLN181, HIS348, ASP349, ASP406, VAL407, ASP408, ARG439, and ARG443, which was predicted by performing a protein-ligand docking simulation. Subsequently, we evaluated the inhibitory effect of pyrogallol on α-glucosidase, and found that it induced a mixed type of inhibition in a reversible and quick-binding manner. The relevant kinetic parameters were evaluated to be: IC50=0.72±0.051mM; Ki=0.37±0.018mM. A tertiary conformational change was synchronized with pyrogallol inhibition and modulation of the shape of the active site was correspondingly observed. Our study provides insight into the functional inhibitory role of pyrogallol, which results from its triple-hydroxyl groups interacting with the active site of α-glucosidase. We suggest that compounds similar to pyrogallol (phenolic hydroxyl compounds) which target the key residues of the active site of α-glucosidase could be potential agents for α-glucosidase inhibition.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cu2+ is well known to play important roles in living organisms having bifacial distinction: essential microelement that is necessary for a wide range of metabolic processes but hyper-accumulation of Cu2+ can be toxic. The physiological function of Cu2+ in ectothermic animals such as Pelodiscus sinensis (Chinese soft-shelled turtle) has not been elucidated. OBJECTIVE In this study, we elucidated effect of Cu2+ on the energy producing metabolic enzyme creatine kinase (CK), which might directly affect energy metabolism and homeostasis of P. sinensis. METHOD We first conducted molecular dynamics (MD) simulations between P-CK and Cu2+ and conducted the inactivation kinetics including spectrofluorimetry study. RESULTS MD simulation showed that Cu2+ blocked the binding site of the ATP cofactor, indicating that Cu2+ could directly inactivate P-CK. We prepared the muscle type of CK (P-CK) and confirmed that Cu2+ conspicuously inactivated the activity of P-CK (IC50 = 24.3 μM) and exhibited non-competitive inhibition manner with creatine and ATP in a first-order kinetic process. This result was well matched to the MD simulation results that Cu2+-induced non-competitive inactivation of P-CK. The spectrofluorimetry study revealed that Cu2+ induced tertiary structure changes in PCK accompanying with the exposure of hydrophobic surfaces. Interestingly, the addition of osmolytes (glycine, proline, and liquaemin) effectively restored activity of the Cu2+-inactivated P-CK. CONCLUSION Our study illustrates the Cu2+-mediated unfolding of P-CK with disruption of the enzymatic function and the protective restoration role of osmolytes on P-CK inactivation. This study provides information of interest on P-CK as a metabolic enzyme of ectothermic animal in response to Cu2+ binding.

Abstract
Arginine kinase is an essential enzyme which is closely related to energy metabolism in marine invertebrates. Arginine kinase provides a significant role in quick response to environmental change and stress. In this study, we simulated a tertiary structure of Sepia pharaonis arginine kinase (SPAK) based on the gene sequence and conducted the molecular dynamics simulations between SPAK and Zn2+. Using these results, the Zn2+ binding sites were predicted and the initial effect of Zn2+ on the SPAK structure was elucidated. Subsequently, the experimental kinetic results were compared with the simulation results. Zn2+ markedly inhibited the activity of SPAK in a manner of non-competitive inhibitions for both arginine and ATP. We also found that Zn2+ binding to SPAK resulted in tertiary conformational change accompanying with the hydrophobic residues exposure. These changes caused SPAK aggregation directly. We screened two protectants, glycine and proline, which effectively prevented SPAK aggregation and recovered the structure and activity. Overall, our study suggested the inhibitory effect of Zn2+ on SPAK and Zn2+ can trigger SPAK aggregation after exposing large extent of hydrophobic surface. The protective effects of glycine and proline against Zn2+ on SPAK folding were also demonstrated.

Abstract
Arginine kinase plays an important role in cellular energy metabolism and is closely related to the environmental stress response in marine invertebrates. We studied the Cu(2+)-mediated inhibition and aggregation of Sepia pharaonis arginine kinase (SPAK) and found that Cu(2+) markedly inhibited the SPAK activity along with mixed-type inhibition against the arginine substrate and noncompetitive inhibition against the ATP cofactor. Spectrofluorimetry results showed that Cu(2+) induced a tertiary structure change in SPAK, resulting in exposure of the hydrophobic surface and increased aggregation. Cu(2+)-mediated SPAK aggregation followed first-order kinetics consistent with monophasic and a biphasic processes. Addition of osmolytes, including glycine and proline, effectively blocked SPAK aggregation and restored SPAK activity. Our results demonstrated the effects of Cu(2+) on SPAK catalytic function, conformation, and aggregation, as well as the protective effects of osmolytes on SPAK folding. This study provided important insights into the role of Cu(2+) as a negative effector of the S. pharaonis metabolic enzyme AK and the possible responses of cephalopods to unfavorable environmental conditions.

Abstract
The protein folding pathway consists of sequential intramolecular interactions, while chaperones exert their functions either by stabilizing folding intermediates or by preventing nonspecific intermolecular interactions, which are often associated with aggregation involving exposed hydrophobic residues in folding intermediates. As chaperones do not possess specificity for individual client proteins, we designed an antibody-based chaperoning system to mimic the sequential binding and release of client proteins undergoing folding. The single-chain variable fragment of antibody (scFv) A4 binds to human muscle creatine kinase (HCK) and prevents it from aggregating. The slow dissociation of HCK from A4 resulted in delayed but eventually high-quality refolding, as reflected by the higher recovery of enzymatic activity as well as abolished aggregation. Peptide P6, a sequence in HCK involved in A4 binding, competes with HCK, promotes its dissociation from A4, and accelerates the rate of high-quality refolding. The sequential addition of A4 and P6 is essential for the chaperoning effect. The programmed binding/release method can also be applied to refold HCK from inclusion bodies. Because the association/dissociation of the folding intermediate with the antibody is highly specific, the method can be used to design tailored refolding systems and to investigate chaperoning effects on protein folding/aggregation in a sequence-specific manner.

Abstract
Understanding the mechanism of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1) folding is important because this enzyme is directly involved in several types of cancers and other diseases. We investigated the urea-mediated unfolding of ALDH1 by integrating kinetic inhibition studies with computational molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Conformational changes in the enzyme structure were also analyzed using intrinsic and 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonate (ANS)-binding fluorescence measurements. Kinetic studies revealed that the direct binding of urea to ALDH1 induces inactivation of ALDH1 in a manner of mixed-type inhibition. Tertiary structural changes associated with regional hydrophobic exposure of the active site were observed. The urea binding regions on ALDH1 were predicted by docking simulations and were partly shared with active site residues of ALDH1 and with interface residues of the oligomerization domain for tetramer formation. The docking results suggest that urea prevents formation of the ALDH1 normal shape for the tetramer state as well as entrance of the substrate into the active site. Our study provides insight into the structural changes that accompany urea-mediated unfolding of ALDH1 and the catalytic role associated with conformational changes.

Abstract
Background The histologic characteristics of atopic dermatitis (AD) include perivascular edema and dilated tortuous vessels in the papillary dermis. A single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the fms-related tyrosine kinase 4 (FLT4) gene is associated with AD. Objective To investigate the associations between podoplanin (PDPN) gene SNPs and AD. Methods We genotyped 9 SNPs from 5 genes of 1,119 subjects (646 AD patients and 473 controls). We determined the promoter activity of 1 SNP (rs355022) by luciferase assay; this SNP was further investigated using 1,133 independent samples (441 AD patients and 692 controls). Results The rs355022 and rs425187 SNPs and the C-A haplotype in the PDPN gene were significantly associated with intrinsic AD in the initial experiment. The rs355022 SNP significantly affected promoter activity in the luciferase assay. However, these results were not replicated in the replication study. Conclusion Two SNPs and the C-A haplotype in the PDPN gene are significantly associated with intrinsic AD; although, the results were confirmed by luciferase assay, they could not be replicated with independent samples. Nevertheless, further replication experiments should be performed in future studies.
