Boron stress activates the general amino acid control mechanism and ınhibits protein synthesis

Uluışık, İrem; Kaya, Alaattin; Dima, Fomenko; Karakaya, Hüseyin Çağlar; Brad, Carlson; Vadim, Gladyshev; Koç, Ahmet (PLoS ONE, 2011)

Boron is an essential micronutrient for plants, and it is beneficial for animals. However, at high concentrations boron is toxic to cells although the mechanism of this toxicity is not known. Atr1 has recently been ...
Genome wide identification of genes that play a role in boron stress response in yeast

Uluışık, İrem; Kaya, Alaattin; Avşar, Kadir; Karakaya, Hüseyin Çağlar (Genomics, 2011)

Boron is an essential micronutrient for plants and it is either necessary or beneficial for animals. Studies identified only few genes related to boron metabolism thus far and details of how boron is imported into cells and ...
Roles of ATR1 paralogs YMR279c and YOR378w in boron stress tolerance

Bozdağ, Gönensin Ozan; Uluışık, İrem; Gülce, Sıla Gülcüler; Karakaya, Hüseyin Çağlar; Koç, Ahmet (Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2011)

Boron is a necessary nutrient for plants and animals, however excess of it causes toxicity. Previously, Atr1 and Arabidopsis Bor1 homolog were identified as the boron efflux pump in yeast, which lower the cytosolic boron ...
The roles of thiol oxidoreductases in yeast replicative aging

Hacıoğlu, Elise; Esmer, Işıl; Fomenko, Dmitri E.; Gladyshev, Vadim N.; Koç, Ahmet (Mechanisms of Ageing and Development, 2010)

Thiol-based redox reactions are involved in the regulation of a variety of biological functions, such as protection against oxidative stress, signal transduction and protein folding. Some proteins involved in redox ...
Assessment of chronological lifespan dependent molecular damages in yeast lacking mitochondrial antioxidant genes

Demir, Ayşe Banu; Koç, Ahmet (Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2010)

The free radical theory of aging states that oxidative damage to biomolecules causes aging and that antioxidants neutralize free radicals and thus decelerate aging. Mitochondria produce most of the reactive oxygen species, ...
Compartmentalization and Regulation of Mitochondrial Function by Methionine Sulfoxide Reductases in Yeast

Kaya, Alaattin; Koç, Ahmet; Lee, Byung Cheon; Fomenko, Dmitri E.; Rederstorff, Mathieu; Krol, Alain; Lescure, Alain; Gladyshev, Vadim N. (Biochemistry, 2010)

Elevated levels of reactive oxygen species can damage proteins. Sulfur-containing amino acid residues, cysteine and methionine, are particularly susceptible to such damage. Various enzymes evolved to protect proteins or ...
