Title: Improving Buruli ulcer and leprosy control in Africa Abstract: Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTD) are a diverse group of communicable diseases prevalent in tropical and subtropical areas. They affect more than a billion people and cost developing economies trillions of dollars every year. The socio-economic consequences are enormous. Of the 20 NTDs, 12 are endemic in Africa. The co-endemicity of certain diseases; the similarity of the clinical signs as well as the scarcity of financial, human and temporal resources called…

BIFI TALK: Athi N Naganathan, Indian Institute of Technology Madras (IITM), Chennai, India Title: Conformational Tuning as a Mechanism to Determine Specificity and Promiscuity Abstract: Paralogous proteins confer enhanced fitness to organisms via complex sequence-conformation codes that shape functional divergence, specialization, or promiscuity. Here, we resolve the underlying mechanism of promiscuous binding versus partial sub-functionalization by studying paralogous Acyl-CoA Binding Proteins (ACBPs) from Plasmodium falciparum. Combining experiments and simulations on two of the paralogs, A16 and A749, we show that…

BIFI-Talk: Sara García Linares. Universidad Complutense de Madrid. Title: Design of nanoreactors for plastic depolymerization based on pore-forming toxins Abstract Petroleum-based plastics are durable and accumulate in all ecological niches. Approximately 80% of waste objects are made of macroplastics, with most ending up dumped into the oceans. PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is the primary component in many synthetic fibers and water bottles, comprising 14.4% of total plastic waste. Our work focuses on improving biotechnological processes for PET degradation by designing more…

BIFI TALK: Sylvie Callegari, del Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research, Australia
BIFI TALKS: Sylvie Callegari, del Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research, Australia Title: Activating PINK1 to treat Parkinson’s disease Abstract PINK1, a protein linked to Parkinson's disease, is a ubiquitin kinase that accumulates on the outer membrane of damaged mitochondria. Upon accumulation, PINK1 becomes activated and phosphorylates ubiquitin, generating a unique phospho-ubiquitin signal that triggers mitophagy to remove damaged mitochondria. Enhancing PINK1 activation is a promising strategy for boosting mitochondrial turnover in Parkinson's patients. Using Cryo-EM, we recently elucidated the…
