It was first discovered that viruses can regulate the "life" of proteins by inhibiting the N-terminal regulatory pathway and reveal its molecular mechanism.
The "lifetime" of intracellular proteins varies greatly from synthesis to degradation. In general, proteins responsible for the necessary structure of cells are relatively long-lived, while proteins responsible for signal regulation tend to have shorter lifetimes. Until the 1980s, American scientists discovered that the N-terminal amino acid type of a protein determines its rate of decomposition in cells. This rule applies to all life forms from pronucleus to eukaryote, and is called the "N-terminal rule." ".
However, for viruses that infect various life types, utilize and regulate various biological processes, whether they can regulate the N-terminal regular pathway and thus affect the life of the protein, the industry has always lacked research.
Zhou Xi's research team found that a small RNA-like virus Drosophila C virus can inhibit the apoptotic pathway in the early stages of infection of Drosophila, and further found that early infection of Drosophila C virus can lead to an N-terminally cleaved cell. Abnormal accumulation of apoptosis-inhibiting proteins. More in-depth studies have found that early infection of Drosophila C virus can specifically inhibit the deamidation process in the N-terminal regular pathway, thereby prolonging the lifespan of apoptosis regulation of Drosophila melanogaster exposed to N-terminal unstable amino acids.
This research was published on the 12th in the comprehensive authoritative journal Life Science Online in the field of life sciences. The editorial commentary "opens the door to the N-terminal rule pathway" and provides a deep understanding of various viruses and N. The interaction mechanism of the end rules lays the theoretical foundation.
Blueberry powder can delay memory decline and prevent heart disease. Blueberry is regarded as a super fruit. Eating more blueberries or drinking blueberry juice can help prevent colon cancer, the daily health news reported. Blueberry powder contains a lot of physiological active substances, known as the "No.1 Antioxidant" in fruits and vegetables. It can protect cells from the damage of peroxides. It can prevent dysfunction, improve short-term memory, and improve the balance and coordination of the elderly.
