    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Activity‑based protein profling of rice (Oryza sativa L.) bran serine hydrolases Achintya Kumar Dolui1,2, Arun Kumar Vijayakumar2,3, Ram Rajasekharan1,2,4 & Panneerselvam Vijayaraj1,2* Rice bran is an underutilized agricultural by‑product with economic importance. The unique phytochemicals and fatty acid compositions of bran have been targeted for nutraceutical development. The endogenous lipases and hydrolases are responsible for the rapid deterioration of rice bran. Hence, we attempted to provide the frst comprehensive profling of active serine hydrolases (SHs) present in rice bran proteome by activity‑based protein profling (ABPP) strategy. The active site‑directed fuorophosphonate probe (rhodamine and biotin‑conjugated) was used for the detection and identifcation of active SHs. ABPP revealed 55 uncharacterized active‑SHs and are representing fve diferent known enzyme families. Based on motif and domain analyses, one of the uncharacterized and miss annotated SHs (Os12Ssp, storage protein) was selected for biochemical characterization by overexpressing in yeast. The purifed recombinant protein authenticated the serine protease activity in time and protein‑dependent studies. Os12Ssp exhibited the maximum activity at a pH between 7.0 and 8.0. The protease activity was inhibited by the covalent serine protease inhibitor, which suggests that the ABPP approach is indeed reliable than the sequence‑based annotations. Collectively, the comprehensive knowledge generated from this study would be useful in expanding the current understanding of rice bran SHs and paves the way for better utilization/ stabilization of rice bran. Rice (Oryza sativa) is one of the major staple foods for almost half the world’s population, especially in Asia 1.

Aim: The aim of this study was to explore the roles of PDIA3 in the interaction between DCs and mast cells (MCs) in the context of IBS. Methods: This study investigated the effects of shRNA- mediated knockdown of PDIA3 expression in a dendritic cell line and spleen lymphocyte co-cultures. Resultant co-culture supernatants were used to challenge MC. PDIA3 expression was assessed using q-PCR and Western blotting. Expression of surface markers was analyzed by flow cytometry. CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell proliferation were examined using Cell Trace CFSE kits. Cytokine production was determined by ELISA testing. MC viability was ascer- tained using CCK-8 production.

Glomerular development has been analyzed mainly in mice, whereas analysis of human kidney development has been minimal because of limited access to embryonic kidneys. We previously reported the induction of three-dimensional primordial glomeruli from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Here, using transcription activator–like effector nuclease-mediated homologous recombination, we generated human iPS cell lines that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the NPHS1 locus, which encodes nephrin, and we show that GFP expression facilitated accurate visualization of nephrin-positive podocyte formation in

In the current study, we demonstrated that porcine oocytes with the first polar body collected at 33 h of in vitro maturation sustain IVF with higher sperm decondensation and pronuclear formation rates and support in vitro development with higher cleavage and blastocyst rates, compared with those collected at 42 h (P!0.05). Proteomic analysis performed to clarify the mechanisms underlying the differences in developmental competence between oocytes collected at 33 and 42 h led to the identification of 18 differentially expressed proteins, among which protein disulfide isomerase associated 3 (PDIA3) was selected for further study. Inhibition of maternal PDIA3 via antibody injection disrupted sperm decondensation; conversely, overexpression of PDIA3 in oocytes improved sperm decondensation. In addition, sperm decondensation failure in PDIA3 antibody-injected oocytes was rescued by dithiothreitol, a commonly used disulfide bond reducer. Our results collectively report that maternal PDIA3 plays a crucial role in sperm decondensation by reducing protamine disulfide bonds in porcine oocytes, supporting its utility as a potential tool for oocyte selection in assisted reproduction techniques.

SFGH, S-formylglutathione hydrolase TTP, tripeptidyl peptidase Keywords: Activity-based protein profiling, fluorophosphonate, serine hydrolases, Arabidopsis thaliana, Botrytis cinerea, MudPIT, functional proteomics Activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) is a powerful method to display enzyme activities in proteomes, and provides crucial information on enzyme activity, rather than protein or transcript abundance. We applied ABPP using fluorophosphonate (FP)-based probes to Downloaded from display the activities of serine (Ser) hydrolases in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.
