Dithiothreitol causes toxicity in C. elegans by modulating the methionine-homocysteine cycle

G. Gokul et al.

Summary: This study reveals that the redox reagent DTT can induce stress in the endoplasmic reticulum and disrupt protein folding, leading to cellular toxicity. The presence of vitamin B12 in the bacterial diet can alleviate DTT toxicity. Loss of function of the SAM-dependent methyltransferase gene R08E5.3 confers resistance to DTT. Depletion of SAM is identified as the underlying mechanism of DTT toxicity. The unfolded protein response pathway involving IRE-1/XBP-1 is required to counteract DTT toxicity at high concentrations.

Diverse Sphingolipid Species Harbor Different Effects on Ire1 Clustering

Mark A. Bieniawski et al.

Summary: The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is involved in crucial processes in eukaryotes. Recent research suggests that sphingolipids play a significant role in regulating the ER's response to stress. This study identifies the oxysterol-binding protein Kes1 as a key regulator of sphingolipid metabolism, which inhibits the unfolded protein response (UPR) in cells.

Structural basis for activation of fungal sterol receptor Upc2 and azole resistance

Lingchen Tan et al.

Summary: The fungal transcription factor Upc2 can sense the levels of ergosterol and regulate sterol biosynthesis and uptake. This study reveals the structure of ergosterol-bound Upc2 and the regulatory mechanism involving the Hsp90 chaperone. Understanding this regulatory mechanism provides a new target for the treatment of azole-resistant Candida infections.

Fungicide Resistance Evolving in Ramularia collo-cygni Population in Estonia

Riinu Kiiker et al.

Summary: Ramularia leaf spot caused by the fungus Ramularia collo-cygni has become widespread in Estonian barley fields, with increasing resistance to fungicides. A two-year study identified a new fungicide with better efficacy against the pathogen. Mutations in fungicide target proteins were also found, impacting fungicide control of the disease.
