#PPAT
My response to someone still in dismay about everything that has gone on with politics after the election, and to the present day!

I get what you're saying. The disappointment is unreal.

I do think that grassroots people and organizations are showing up, showing out, and getting in "good trouble!"

That, is the very essence of change.

When purine-nucleotide levels are low, PPAT remains active, enabling cells to produce more nucleotides. But when these levels rise, the nucleotides themselves drive assembly of the PPAT–NUDT5 complex, inhibiting PPAT and shutting down further production.'
Nucleotides act as ‘molecular glue’ and can sense their own abundance
Some nucleotides have been shown to control metabolism by ‘gluing’ proteins together. Could other small molecules made naturally by cells have similar capabilities?

🔥Texas Rep. James Talerico gets to the heart of what's wrong with Christian Nationalism.🔥

Special note: Evening if you're not particularly spiritual, agnostic or atheist, you can appreciate him calling this out.

NUDT5 regulates purine metabolism and thiopurine sensitivity by interacting with PPAT | Science www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Great work from @rjdlab.bsky.social !!
NUDT5 regulates purine metabolism and thiopurine sensitivity by interacting with PPAT
Cells generate purine nucleotides through de novo purine biosynthesis (DNPB) and purine salvage. Purine salvage represses DNPB to prevent excessive purine nucleotide synthesis through mechanisms that ...

1/New paper from Zheng Wu, Phong Nguyen et al. @cri-utsw.bsky.social shows how cells balance the two pathways that produce purine nucleotides: de novo purine biosynthesis (DNPB) and purine salvage. The surprising mechanism involves NUDT5, a Nudix hydrolase

It's been a long time coming and I'm super excited to share our new preprint is out: "A novel transgenic reporter to study vertebrate epigenetics". We generated a zebrafish epigenetic reporter and found a fatty liver disease mutant with weird epigenetic phenotypes 👇

PRPP amidotransferase (PPAT) is rate-limiting in purine synthesis. This study shows that PPAT forms intracellular #condensates in response to high purine demand via #PhaseSeparation (driven by TORC1-mediated macromolecular crowding of cytoplasm) @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/3Yw2VVb

🔊 Uusi jakso ulkona: Siirtomaavallan purkautuminen Afrikassa.

Afrikan dekolonisaatio alkoi 2. maailmansodan jälkeen.

Osa maista vapautui rauhallisesti, osa ajautui verisiin vapaus- ja sisällissotiin, osa diktatuuriin, korruptioon ja kleptokratiaan.

Datakeskusyhtiöt ovat kykeneviä ostamaan kokonaisia tuotantolaitoksia. Tai siis isot PPAt joissa ostetaan kokonaisen uuden tuotantolaitoksen koko tuotanto >10 vuotta ennalta sovitulla hinnalla joka riittää kattamaan investointikustannukset. Eikös Google ole jo aloittanut ydinvoimahankkeita?

11/The NUDT5-PPAT complex seems to hold PPAT into an inactive oligomer (likely a tetramer) that suppresses DNPB. In vitro, NUDT5 reduces PPAT enzymatic activity, much better than purine nucleotides alone. But this requires that NUDT5 associate with PPAT.

Hauptsache die PPat und Wohlhabenden werden weder mit höherer Einkommenssteuer, noch Vermögenssteuer auf grosse Vermögen, noch Erbschaftssteuer auf hohe Erbschaften herangezogen um das Gemeinwohl zu stutzen. Es wird ununterbrochen von unten nach oben umverteilt, die so immer stärker Verarmten auch

Meine Mutter,92! ist für zwei Tage im Krhs für einen Minieingriff. (Alter u PPat) sie wollte ihre Maske aufsetzen um im Haus transportiert zu werden. OÄrztin hat ihr erklärt, sie brauche keine Maske, gäbe soviele Viren u C sei harmlos, sie wollten nicht, dass Pat Maske tragen.
Sie glaubt das jetzt.😡

10/Mutating a single NUDT5 residue from the interface with PPAT eliminated NUDT5’s ability to bind PPAT and confer sensitivity to 6TG, both in cultured cells and xenografted tumors.

Ha, das kenne ich noch aus meiner Kindheit. Sowohl d Hausarzt als auch der HNO hatten ein extra Wartezimmer f Privatpatienten. So konnten d Kassenpat nicht meckern über die schnellere Abfertigung v Ppat. Das beim HNO war mir als Kind wg riesiger dunkler Bilder immer unheimlich.

Actually just so yaknow you probably took the Puppy-adjusted Preschool Aptitude Test (PPAT) and it's wayyyyyy easier so don't like, compare yourself to wolves or foxes or cats or anything.

The Supreme Court will decide if they wish to take up the case of overturning marriage rights for the gay community this fall.

Kim Davis, the hypocrite, wants you to think she is the moral center of the universe.
