- Abstract
Lipidomic samples are complex mixtures of structurally different species of a wide range of concentrations providing challenges in their characterization. In this work, we present a proof of concept for the application of a simple microgradient liquid chromatography device on the detailed analysis of lipid classes. Our lipidomic analysis is based on a lipid class microgradient fractionation of a total lipid extract using an in-house-prepared hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography microcolumn followed by RP-LC/MS of the collected lipid class fractions. The final fractionation method uses a 40-mm-long microcolumn of 500 μm ID with silica stationary phase obtained from a commercially available chromatographic column and the microgradient of the mobile phase prepared in a microsyringe using methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) - methanol - water - ammonium acetate mixtures of various elution strengths. MTBE total lipid extract is directly separated by microgradient elution into lipid classes according to their polarity, which enables the collection of isolated fractions of most lipid classes. The method has been applied to the fractionation of porcine brain extract into nonpolar lipids, hexosylceramides, phosphoethanolamines, phosphocholines, sphingomyelins, and lysophosphocholines classes. Achieved repeatability, recovery, and advanced lipid coverage prove the applicability of the microgradient fractionation of total lipid extract for the comprehensive lipidomic analysis., Competing Interests: Declaration of Competing Interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2021 Elsevier B.V.

- Abstract
The native dimeric Petroselinum crispum (Mill.) Fuss protein Pet c 1.0201 and a monomeric xyloglucan endotransglycosylase enzyme (Garajova et al., 2008) isolated from the root cells co-purify and share similar molecular masses and acidic isoelectric points. In this work, we determined the complete primary structure of the parsley Pet c 1.0201 protein, based on tryptic and chymotryptic peptides followed by the manual micro-gradient chromatographic separation coupled with offline MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry. The bioinformatics approach enabled us to include the parsley protein into the PR-10 family, as it exhibited the highest protein sequence identity with the Apium graveolens Api g 1.0201 allergen and the major Daucus carota allergen Dau c 1.0201. Hence, we designated the Petroselinum crispum protein as Pet c 1.0201 and deposited it in the UniProt Knowledgebase under the accession C0HKF5. 3D protein homology modelling and molecular dynamics simulations of the Pet c 1.0201 dimer confirmed the typical structure of the Bet v 1 family allergens, and the potential of the Pet c 1.0201 protein to dimerize in water. However, the behavioural properties of Pet c 1.0201 and the celery allergen Api g 1.0101 differed in the presence of salts due to transiently and stably formed dimeric forms of Pet c 1.0201 and Api g 1.0101, respectively., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2020 Elsevier Ltd.

- Abstract
Although the role of high-risk human papillomaviruses (hrHPVs) as etiological agents in cancer development has been intensively studied during the last decades, there is still the necessity of understanding the impact of the HPV E6 and E7 oncogenes on host cells, ultimately leading to malignant transformation. Here, we used newly established immortalized human keratinocytes with a well-defined HPV16 E6E7 expression cassette to get a more complete and less biased overview of global changes induced by HPV16 by employing transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq) and stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC). This is the first study combining transcriptome and proteome data to characterize the impact of HPV oncogenes in human keratinocytes in comparison with their virus-negative counterparts. To enhance the informative value and accuracy of the RNA-Seq data, four different bioinformatic workflows were used. We identified potential novel upstream regulators (e.g., CNOT7, SPDEF, MITF, and PAX5) controlling distinct clusters of genes within the HPV-host cell network as well as distinct factors (e.g., CPPED1, LCP1, and TAGLN) with essential functions in cancer. Validated results in this study were compared to data sets from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), demonstrating that several identified factors were also differentially expressed in cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC) and HPV-positive head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCs). This highly integrative approach allows the identification of novel HPV-induced cellular changes that are also reflected in cancer patients, providing a promising omics data set for future studies in both basic and translational research. IMPORTANCE Human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated cancers still remain a big health problem, especially in developing countries, despite the availability of prophylactic vaccines. Although HPV oncogenes have been intensively investigated for decades, a study applying recent advances in RNA-Seq and quantitative proteomic approaches to a precancerous model system with well-defined HPV oncogene expression alongside HPV-negative parental cells has been missing until now. Here, combined omics analyses reveal global changes caused by the viral oncogenes in a less biased way and allow the identification of novel factors and key cellular networks potentially promoting malignant transformation. In addition, this system also provides a basis for mechanistic research on novel key factors regulated by HPV oncogenes, especially those that are confirmed in vivo in cervical cancer as well as in head and neck cancer patient samples from TCGA data sets., (Copyright © 2019 Yang et al.)

- Abstract
α-Galactosidases are assigned to the class of hydrolases and the subclass of glycoside hydrolases (GHs). They belong to six GH families and include the only characterized α-galactosidases from yeasts (GH 27, Saccharomyces cerevisiae). The present study focuses on an investigation of the lactose-inducible α-galactosidase produced by Papiliotrema flavescens. The enzyme was present on the surface of cells and in the cytosol. Its temperature optimum was about 60 °C and the pH optimum was 4.8; the pH stability ranged from 3.2 to 6.6. This α-galactosidase also exhibited transglycosylation activity. The cytosol α-galactosidase with a molecular weight about 110 kDa, was purified using a combination of liquid chromatography techniques. Three intramolecular peptides were determined by the partial structural analysis of the sequences of the protein isolated, using MALDI-TOF/TOF mass spectrometry. The data obtained recognized the first yeast α-galactosidase, which belongs to the GH 36 family. The bioinformatics analysis and homology modeling of a 210 amino acids long C-terminal sequence (derived from cDNA) confirmed the correctness of these findings. The study was also supplemented by the screening of capsular cryptococcal yeasts, which produce the surface lactose-inducible α- and β-galactosidases. The production of the lactose-inducible α-galactosidases was not found to be a general feature within the yeast strains examined and, therefore, the existing hypothesis on the general function of this enzyme in cryptococcal capsule rearrangement cannot be confirmed.

- Abstract
In contrast to the well defined mechanism of merocrine exocytosis, the mechanism of apocrine secretion, which was first described over 180 years ago, remains relatively uncharacterized. We identified apocrine secretory activity in the late prepupal salivary glands of Drosophila melanogaster just prior to the execution of programmed cell death (PCD). The excellent genetic tools available in Drosophila provide an opportunity to dissect for the first time the molecular and mechanistic aspects of this process. A prerequisite for such an analysis is to have pivotal immunohistochemical, ultrastructural, biochemical and proteomic data that fully characterize the process. Here we present data showing that the Drosophila salivary glands release all kinds of cellular proteins by an apocrine mechanism including cytoskeletal, cytosolic, mitochondrial, nuclear and nucleolar components. Surprisingly, the apocrine release of these proteins displays a temporal pattern with the sequential release of some proteins (e.g. transcription factor BR-C, tumor suppressor p127, cytoskeletal β-tubulin, non-muscle myosin) earlier than others (e.g. filamentous actin, nuclear lamin, mitochondrial pyruvate dehydrogenase). Although the apocrine release of proteins takes place just prior to the execution of an apoptotic program, the nuclear DNA is never released. Western blotting indicates that the secreted proteins remain undegraded in the lumen. Following apocrine secretion, the salivary gland cells remain quite vital, as they retain highly active transcriptional and protein synthetic activity.
