Sorting nexin 3 mutation impairs development and neuronal function in Caenorhab...
Vieira, Neide; Bessa, Carlos; Rodrigues, Ana J.; Marques, Paulo; Chan, Fung-Yi; Carvalho, Ana Xavier de; Neves, Margarida Correia; Sousa, NunoThe sorting nexins family of proteins (SNXs) plays pleiotropic functions in protein trafficking and intracellular signaling and has been associated with several disorders, namely Alzheimer's disease and Down's syndrome. Despite the growing association of SNXs with neurodegeneration, not much is known about their function in the nervous system. The aim of this work was to use the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans ...
The effect of high-fat diet on rat’s mood, feeding behavior and response to stress
Aslani, Shilan; Vieira, Neide; Marques, Fernanda; Costa, Patrício Soares; Sousa, Nuno; Palha, Joana AlmeidaAn association between obesity and depression has been indicated in studies addressing common physical (metabolic) and psychological (anxiety, low self-esteem) outcomes. Of consideration in both obesity and depression are chronic mild stressors to which individuals are exposed to on a daily basis. However, the response to stress is remarkably variable depending on numerous factors, such as the physical health a...
Role of the DHH1 Gene in the Regulation of Monocarboxylic Acids Transporters Ex...
Mota, Sandra; Vieira, Neide; Barbosa, Sónia; Delaveau, Thierry; Torchet, Claire; Saux, Agnès Le; Garcia, Mathilde; Pereira, Ana; Lemoine, SophiePrevious experiments revealed that DHH1, a RNA helicase involved in the regulation of mRNA stability and translation, complemented the phenotype of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant affected in the expression of genes coding for monocarboxylic-acids transporters, JEN1 and ADY2 (Paiva S, Althoff S, Casal M, Leao C. FEMS Microbiol Lett, 1999, 170∶301–306). In wild type cells, JEN1 expression had been shown to be ...

A molecular switch on an arrestin-like protein relays glucose signaling to tran...
Becuwe, Michel; Vieira, Neide; Lara, David; Gomes-Rezende, Jéssica; Soares-Cunha, Carina; Casal, Margarida; Haguenauer-Tsapis, Rosine; Vincent, OlivierEndocytosis regulates the plasma membrane protein landscape in response to environmental cues. In yeast, the endocytosis of transporters depends on their ubiquitylation by the Nedd4-like ubiquitin ligase Rsp5, but how extracellular signals trigger this ubiquitylation is unknown. Various carbon source transporters are known to be ubiquitylated and endocytosed when glucose-starved cells are exposed to glucose. We...
