Hierarchical cysteine oxidation controls reversible amyloid formation in an ankyrin repeat protein

Aakriti Sethi, Hannah Darroch, Nicholas J. Magon…·Christoph Göbl

This paper shows that cysteine oxidation in drP18 controls reversible amyloid formation, with distinct oxidants leading to different amyloid kinetics and morphologies.

Peroxidasin is associated with a mesenchymal-like transcriptional phenotype and promotes invasion in metastatic melanoma

Carlos C. Smith-Díaz, Abhishek Kumar, Andrew B. Das…·Martina Paumann-Page

This study shows that peroxidasin (PXDN) promotes invasion in metastatic melanoma by supporting a mesenchymal-like transcriptional phenotype, as demonstrated through transcriptomic and proteomic analyses.
