Abstract
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis caused by Paracoccidioides spp. The interaction mediated by the presence of adhesins on the fungal surface and receptors in the extracellular matrix of the host, as well as the biofilm formation, is essential in its pathogenesis. Adhesins such as gp43, enolase, GAPDH (glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase), and 14-3-3 have been demonstrated in the Paracoccidioides brasiliensis (Pb18) strain and recognized as necessary in the fungus-host interaction. The Pb 18 strain silenced to 14-3-3 showed changes in morphology, virulence, and adhesion capacity. The study aimed to evaluate the role of adhesin 14-3-3 in P. brasiliensis biofilm formation and the differential expression of genes related to adhesins, comparing planktonic and biofilm forms. The presence of biofilm was also verified in sutures in vitro and in vivo. The silenced strain (Pb14-3-3 aRNA) was compared with the wild type Pb18, determining the differential metabolic activity between the strains by the XTT reduction assay; the biomass by violet crystal and the polysaccharides by safranin, even as morphological differences by microscopic techniques. Differential gene expression for adhesins was also analyzed, comparing the relative expression of these in planktonic and biofilm forms at different times. The results suggested that the silencing of 14-3-3 protein altered the ability to form biofilm and its metabolism. The quantity of biomass was similar in both strains; however, the formation of exopolymeric substances and polysaccharide material was lower in the silenced strain. Our results showed increased expression of enolase, GAPDH, and 14-3-3 genes in the first periods of biofilm formation in the Pb18 strain. In contrast, the silenced strain showed a lower expression of these genes, indicating that gene silencing can influence the expression of other genes and be involved in the biofilm formation of P. brasiliensis. In vitro and in vivo assays using sutures confirmed this yeast's ability to form biofilm and may be implicated in the pathogenesis of paracoccidioidomycosis.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects millions of people worldwide and is a gradually worsening neurodegenerative condition. The accumulation of abnormal proteins, such as tau and beta-amyloid, in the brain is a hallmark of AD pathology. 14-3-3 proteins have been implicated in AD pathology in several ways. One proposed mechanism is that 14-3-3 proteins interact with tau protein and modulate its phosphorylation, aggregation, and toxicity. Tau is a protein associated with microtubules, playing a role in maintaining the structural integrity of neuronal cytoskeleton. However, in the context of Alzheimer's disease (AD), an abnormal increase in its phosphorylation occurs. This leads to the aggregation of tau into neurofibrillary tangles, which is a distinctive feature of this condition. Studies have shown that 14-3-3 proteins can bind to phosphorylated tau and regulate its function and stability. In addition, 14-3-3 proteins have been shown to interact with beta-amyloid (Aβ), the primary component of amyloid plaques in AD. 14-3-3 proteins can regulate the clearance of Aβ through the lysosomal degradation pathway by interacting with the lysosomal membrane protein LAMP2A. Dysfunction of lysosomal degradation pathway is thought to contribute to the accumulation of Aβ in the brain and the progression of AD. Furthermore, 14-3-3 proteins have been found to be downregulated in the brains of AD patients, suggesting that their dysregulation may contribute to AD pathology. For example, decreased levels of 14-3-3 proteins in cerebrospinal fluid have been suggested as a biomarker for AD. Overall, these findings suggest that 14-3-3 proteins may play an important role in AD pathology and may represent a potential therapeutic target for the disease. However, further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms underlying the involvement of 14-3-3 proteins in AD and to explore their potential as a therapeutic target.

Abstract
Calcium-mediated signaling pathways are known to play important roles in the polar growth of pollen tubes. The calcium-dependent protein kinase, PiCDPK1, has been shown to be involved in regulating this process through interaction with a guanine dissociation inhibitor, PiRhoGDI1. To more fully understand the role of PiCDPK1 in pollen tube extension, we designed a pull-down study to identify additional substrates of this kinase. These experiments identified 123 putative interactors. Two of the identified proteins were predicted to directly interact with PiCDPK1, and this possibility was investigated in planta. The first, NtGF14, a 14-3-3-like protein, did not produce a noticeable phenotype when overexpressed in pollen alone but partially rescued the spherical tube phenotype caused by PiCDPK1 over-expression when co-over-expressed with the kinase. The second, NtREN1, a GTPase activating protein (GAP), severely inhibited pollen tube germination when over-expressed, and its co-over-expression with PiCDPK1 did not substantially affect this phenotype. These results suggest a novel in vivo interaction between NtGF14 and PiCDPK1 but do not support the direct interaction between PiCDPK1 and NtREN1. We demonstrate the utility of the methodology used to identify potential protein interactions while confirming the necessity of additional studies to confirm their validity. Finally, additional support was found for intersection between PiCDPK1 and RopGTPase pathways to control polar growth at the pollen tube tip.

Abstract
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is a rapidly progressive, fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by prion proteins. In about 85% of patients, CJD occurs as a sporadic disease with no recognizable pattern of transmission. Sporadic CJD (sCJD) can present with rapid cognitive and functional decline, memory deficits, myoclonus, pyramidal and extrapyramidal signs, and visual deficits. The large spectrum of phenotypic variability has made the recognition of prion diseases difficult, and given the rare incidence, it is not uncommon for it to be missed as a potential diagnosis. We present a highly unusual case of a 76-year-old woman with rapidly progressive sCJD who died within five weeks of presentation. Our case demonstrates a typical sequence of symptoms, with rapidly progressive dementia and cerebellar signs at disease onset and myoclonus later in the disease course.

Abstract
14-3-3 proteins play important roles in plant metabolism and stress response. Tomato 14-3-3 proteins, SlTFT4 and SlTFT7, serve as hubs of plant immunity and are targeted by some pathogen effectors. Ralstonia solanacearum with more than 70 type Ⅲ effectors (T3Es) is one of the most destructive plant pathogens. However, little is known on whether R. solanacearum T3Es target SlTFT4 and SlTFT7 and hence interfere with plant immunity. We first detected the associations of SlTFT4/SlTFT7 with R. solanacearum T3Es by luciferase complementation assay, and then confirmed the interactions by yeast two-hybrid approach. We demonstrated that 22 Ralstonia T3Es were associated with both SlTFT4 and SlTFT7, and five among them suppressed the hypersensitive response induced by MAPKKKα, a protein kinase which associated with SlTFT4/SlTFT7. We further demonstrated that suppression of MAPKKKα-induced HR and plant basal defense by the T3E RipAC depend on its association with 14-3-3 proteins. Our findings firstly demonstrate that R. solanacearum T3Es can manipulate plant immunity by targeting 14-3-3 proteins, SlTFT4 and SlTFT7, providing new insights into plant-R. solanacearum interactions.

Abstract
14-3-3 proteins are a ubiquitously expressed family of adaptor proteins. Despite exhibiting high sequence homology, several 14-3-3 isoforms have isoform-specific binding partners and roles. We reported that 14-3-3β interacts with FKBP12 and synaptopodin to maintain the structure of actin fibers in podocytes. However, the precise localization and differential role of 14-3-3 isoforms in kidneys are unclear. Herein, we showed that 14-3-3β in glomeruli was restricted in podocytes, and 14-3-3σ in glomeruli was expressed in podocytes and mesangial cells. Although 14-3-3β was dominantly co-localized with FKBP12 in the foot processes, a part of 14-3-3β was co-localized with Par3 at the slit diaphragm. 14-3-3β interacted with Par3, and FKBP12 bound to 14-3-3β competitively with Par3. Deletion of 14-3-3β enhanced the interaction of Par3 with Par6 in podocytes. Gene silencing for 14-3-3β altered the structure of actin fibers and process formation. 14-3-3β and synaptopodin expression was decreased in podocyte injury models. In contrast, 14-3-3σ in podocytes was expressed in the primary processes. 14-3-3σ interacted with vimentin but not with the actin-associated proteins FKBP12 and synaptopodin. Gene silencing for 14-3-3σ altered the structure of vimentin fibers and process formation. 14-3-3σ and vimentin expression was increased in the early phase of podocyte injury models but was decreased in the late stage. Together, the localization of 14-3-3β at actin cytoskeleton plays a role in maintaining the foot processes and the Par complex in podocytes. In contrast, 14-3-3σ at vimentin cytoskeleton is essential for maintaining primary processes.

Abstract
The activation of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) triggers a series of protein-protein interaction events that subsequently induce a chain of reactions, including alteration of receptor structures, phosphorylation, recruitment of associated proteins, protein trafficking and gene expression. Multiple GPCR signaling transduction pathways are evident - two well-studied pathways are the GPCR-mediated G-protein and β-arrestin pathways. Recently, ligand-induced interactions between GPCRs and 14-3-3 proteins have been demonstrated. This linking of GPCRs to 14-3-3 protein signal hubs opens up a whole new realm of signal transduction possibilities. 14-3-3 proteins play a key part in GPCR trafficking and signal transduction. GPCR-mediated 14-3-3 protein signaling can be harnessed for the study of GPCR function and therapeutics.

Abstract
Haloxylon ammodendron, an important shrub utilized for afforestation in desert areas, can withstand harsh ecological conditions such as drought, high salt and extreme heat. A better understanding of the stress adaptation mechanisms of H. ammodendron is vital for ecological improvement in desert areas. In this study, the role of the H. ammodendron 14-3-3 protein HaFT-1 in thermotolerance was investigated. qRT-PCR analysis showed that heat stress (HS) priming (the first HS) enhanced the expression of HaFT-1 during the second HS and subsequent recovery phase. The subcellular localization of YFP-HaFT-1 fusion protein was mainly detected in cytoplasm. HaFT-1 overexpression increased the germination rate of transgenic Arabidopsis seeds, and the survival rate of HaFT-1 overexpression seedlings was higher than that of wild-type (WT) Arabidopsis after priming-and-triggering and non-primed control treatments. Cell death staining showed that HaFT-1 overexpression lines exhibited significantly reduced cell death during HS compared to WT. Transcriptome analysis showed that genes associated with energy generation, protein metabolism, proline metabolism, autophagy, chlorophyll metabolism and reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging were important to the thermotolerance of HS-primed HaFT-1 transgenic plants. Growth physiology analysis indicated that priming-and-triggering treatment of Arabidopsis seedlings overexpressing HaFT-1 increased proline content and strengthened ROS scavenging activity. These results demonstrated that overexpression of HaFT-1 increased not only HS priming but also tolerance to the second HS of transgenic Arabidopsis, suggesting that HaFT-1 is a positive regulator in acquired thermotolerance.

Abstract
Therapeutic strategies targeting Nuclear Receptors (NRs) beyond their endogenous ligand binding pocket have gained significant scientific interest, driven by a need to circumvent problems associated with drug resistance and pharmacological profile. The hub protein 14-3-3 is an endogenous regulator of various NRs, providing a novel entry point for small molecule modulation of NR activity. Exemplified, 14-3-3 binding to the C-terminal F-domain of the Estrogen Receptor alpha (ERα), and small molecule stabilization of the ERα/14-3-3ζ protein complex by the natural product Fusicoccin A (FC-A), was demonstrated to downregulate ERα-mediated breast cancer proliferation. This presents a novel drug discovery approach to target ERα, however, structural and mechanistic insights into ERα/14-3-3 complex formation are lacking. Here, we provide an in-depth molecular understanding of the ERα/14-3-3ζ complex by isolating 14-3-3ζ in complex with an ERα protein construct comprising its Ligand Binding Domain (LBD) and phosphorylated F-domain. Bacterial co-expression and co-purification of the ERα/14-3-3ζ complex, followed by extensive biophysical and structural characterization, revealed a tetrameric complex between the ERα homodimer and the 14-3-3ζ homodimer. 14-3-3ζ binding to ERα, and ERα/14-3-3ζ complex stabilization by FC-A, appeared to be orthogonal to ERα endogenous agonist (E2) binding, E2-induced conformational changes, and cofactor recruitment. Similarly, the ERα antagonist 4-hydroxytamoxifen inhibited cofactor recruitment to the ERα LBD while ERα was bound to 14-3-3ζ. Furthermore, stabilization of the ERα/14-3-3ζ protein complex by FC-A was not influenced by the disease-associated and 4-hydroxytamoxifen resistant ERα-Y537S mutant. Together, these molecular and mechanistic insights provide direction for targeting ERα via the ERα/14-3-3 complex as an alternative drug discovery approach.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the role of 14-3-3 protein and the Hippo and yes-associated protein 1 (YAP) signaling pathway in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced vascular inflammation. METHODS Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and C57B6 mice were treated with LPS to establish cell and animal models of vascular inflammation. Lentiviral transfection, Western blot, qPCR, immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, co-immunoprecipitation, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to measure inflammatory factors and expression of 14-3-3 protein and phosphorylation of YAP at S127. HUVECs and C57B6 mice were pretreated with a YAP inhibitor, Verteporfin, to observe changes in YAP expression and downstream vascular inflammation. RESULTS LPS induced acute and chronic inflammatory responses in HUVECs and mice and upregulated the expression of several inflammatory factors. LPS also induced expression of 14-3-3 protein and phosphorylation of YAP at S127 in response to acute vascular inflammation and downregulated these markers in response to chronic vascular inflammation. Verteporfin reduced these LPS-induced effects on vascular inflammation. CONCLUSION In chronic vascular inflammation, 14-3-3 protein is downregulated, which promotes inflammation by increasing Hippo/YAP nuclear translocation.

Abstract
Floral transition from vegetative to reproductive growth is pivotal in the plant life cycle. NUTRITION RESPONSE AND ROOT GROWTH (OsNRRa) as a CONSTANS, CONSTANS-LIKE, TOC1 (CCT) domain protein delays flowering in rice and an orthologous gene CmNRRa inhibits flowering in chrysanthemum; however, the mechanism remains unknown. In this study, using yeast two-hybrid screening, we identified the 14-3-3 family member Cm14-3-3µ as a CmNRRa-interacting protein. Biochemical assays using a combination of bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC), pull-down, and Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) were performed to confirm the physical interaction between CmNRRa and Cm14-3-3µ in chrysanthemum. In addition, expression analysis showed that CmNRRa, but not Cm14-3-3µ, responded to the diurnal rhythm, whereas both genes were highly expressed in the leaves. Moreover, the function in flowering time regulation of Cm14-3-3µ is similar to that of CmNRRa. Furthermore, CmNRRa repressed chrysanthemum FLOWERING LOCUS T-like 3 (CmFTL3) and APETALA 1 (AP1)/FRUITFULL (FUL)-like gene (CmAFL1), but induced TERMINAL FLOWER1 (CmTFL1) directly by binding to their promoters. Cm14-3-3µ enhanced the ability of CmNRRa to regulate the expression of these genes. These findings suggest that there is a synergistic relationship between CmNRRa and Cm14-3-3µ in flowering repression in chrysanthemum.

Abstract
Pathogens often induce cell death for their successful proliferation in the host plant. Plasma membrane H+-ATPases (PMAs) are targeted by either pathogens or plant immune receptors in immune response regulation. Although PMAs play pivotal roles in host cell death, the molecular mechanism of effector-mediated regulation of PMA activity has not been described. Here, we report that the Phytophthora infestans RxLR effector PITG06478 can induce cell death in Nicotiana benthamiana but the induced cell death is inhibited by fusicoccin (FC), an irreversible PMA activator. PITG06478, which is localized at the plasma membrane, is not directly associated with the PMA but is associated with Nb14-3-3s, a PMA activator. Immunoblot analyses revealed that the interaction between PITG06478 and Nb14-3-3s was disrupted by FC. PMA activity in PITG06478-expressing plants was eventually inhibited, and cell death likely occurred because the 14-3-3 protein was hijacked. Our results further confirm the significance of PMA activity in host cell death and provide new insight into how pathogens utilize essential host components to sustain their life cycle.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein recruits human cytosolic 14-3-3 proteins playing a well-recognized role in replication of many viruses. Here we use genetic code expansion to demonstrate that 14-3-3 binding is triggered by phosphorylation of SARS-CoV-2 nucleoprotein at either of two pseudo-repeats centered at Ser197 and Thr205. According to fluorescence anisotropy measurements, the pT205-motif,presentin SARS-CoV-2 but not in SARS-CoV, is preferred over the pS197-motif by all seven human 14-3-3 isoforms, which collectively display an unforeseen pT205/pS197 peptide binding selectivity hierarchy. Crystal structures demonstrate that pS197 and pT205 are mutually exclusive 14-3-3-binding sites, whereas SAXS and biochemical data obtained on the full protein-protein complex indicate that 14-3-3 binding occludes the Ser/Arg-rich region of the nucleoprotein, inhibiting its dephosphorylation. This Ser/Arg-rich region is highly prone to mutations, as exemplified by the Omicron and Delta variants, with our data suggesting that the strength of 14-3-3/nucleoprotein interaction can be linked with the replicative fitness of the virus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The 14-3-3 protein in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a suitable biomarker for the diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). However, it has also been detected in various non-prion-related rapidly progressive dementia (RPD), which affected its diagnostic performance and clinical utilization. OBJECTIVE To investigate the general disease distribution with positive 14-3-3 result and to evaluate the association between CSF 14-3-3 protein and the clinical features in patients with non-prion RPD. METHODS A total of 150 patients with non-prion RPD were enrolled. The clinical data were collected and CSF 14-3-3 test was performed for all patients. The distribution of various diseases with a positive 14-3-3 result was analyzed and the association of CSF 14-3-3 with clinical features was tested. RESULTS The CSF 14-3-3 protein was detected in 23.3% of non-prion RPD patients, and the most frequent diagnoses were autoimmune encephalitis (22.9%) and neurodegenerative disease (22.9%). CSF 14-3-3 protein was more common in older patients (p = 0.028) and those presenting myoclonus (p = 0.008). In subgroup analysis, the positive 14-3-3 test was more common in neurodegenerative disease with a long time from the symptom onset to CSF 14-3-3 test (p = 0.014). CONCLUSION CSF 14-3-3 protein could be detected in a broad spectrum of non-prion RPD. In particular, patients with autoimmune encephalitis and rapidly progressive neurodegenerative diseases and those with myoclonus have a greater likelihood of a positive 14-3-3 result. These results could help clinicians interpret the results of CSF 14-3-3 protein more reasonably.

Abstract
The reticular network of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is formed by connecting ER tubules through three-way junctions and undergoes constant remodeling through formation and loss of the three-way junctions. Transmembrane and coiled-coil domain family 3 (TMCC3), an ER membrane protein localizing at three-way junctions, has been shown to positively regulate formation of the reticular ER network. However, elements that negatively regulate TMCC3 localization have not been characterized. In this study, we report that 14-3-3γ, a phospho-serine/phospho-threonine-binding protein involved in various signal transduction pathways, is a negative regulator of TMCC3. We demonstrate that overexpression of 14-3-3γ reduced localization of TMCC3 to three-way junctions and decreased the number of three-way junctions. TMCC3 bound to 14-3-3γ through the N terminus and had deduced 14-3-3 binding motifs. Additionally, we determined that a TMCC3 mutant substituting alanine for serine to be phosphorylated in the binding motif reduced binding to 14-3-3γ. The TMCC3 mutant was more prone than wildtype TMCC3 to localize at three-way junctions in the cells overexpressing 14-3-3γ. Furthermore, the TMCC3 mutant rescued the ER sheet expansion caused by TMCC3 knockdown less than wild-type TMCC3. Taken together, these results indicate that 14-3-3γ binding negatively regulates localization of TMCC3 to the three-way junctions for the proper reticular ER network, implying that the negative regulation of TMCC3 by 14-3-3γ would underlie remodeling of the reticular network of the ER.

Abstract
In the heart, alternative splicing of the igf-I gene produces two isoforms: IGF-IEa and IGF-IEc, (Mechano-growth factor, MGF). The sequence divergence between their E-domain regions suggests differential isoform function. To define the biological actions of MGF's E-domain, we performed in silico analysis of the unique C-terminal sequence and identified a phosphorylation consensus site residing within a putative 14-3-3 binding motif. To test the functional significance of Ser 18 phosphorylation, phospho-mimetic (S/E18) and phospho-null (S/A18) peptides were delivered to mice at different doses for 2 weeks. Cardiovascular function was measured using echocardiography and a pressure-volume catheter. At the lowest (2.25 mg/kg/day) and highest (9 mg/kg/day) doses, the peptides produced a depression in systolic and diastolic parameters. However, at 4.5 mg/kg/day the peptides produced opposing effects on cardiac function. Fractional shortening analysis also showed a similar trend, but with no significant change in cardiac geometry. Microarray analysis discovered 21 genes (FDR p < 0.01), that were expressed accordant with the opposing effects on contractile function at 4.5 mg/kg/day, with the nuclear receptor subfamily 4 group A member 2 (Nr4a2) identified as a potential target of peptide regulation. Testing the regulation of the Nr4a family, showed the E-domain peptides modulate Nr4a gene expression following membrane depolarization with KCl in vitro. To determine the potential role of 14-3-3 proteins, we examined 14-3-3 isoform expression and distribution. 14-3-3γ localized to the myofilaments in neonatal cardiac myocytes, the cardiac myocytes and myofilament extracts from the adult heart. Thermal shift analysis of recombinant 14-3-3γ protein showed the S/A18 peptide destabilized 14-3-3γ folding. Also, the S/A18 peptide significantly inhibited 14-3-3γ's ability to interact with myosin binding protein C (MYPC3) and phospholamban (PLN) in heart lysates from dobutamine injected mice. Conversely, the S/E18 peptide showed no effect on 14-3-3γ stability, did not inhibit 14-3-3γ's interaction with PLN but did inhibit the interaction with MYPC3. Replacing the glutamic acid with a phosphate group on Ser 18 (pSer18), significantly increased 14-3-3γ protein stability. We conclude that the state of Ser 18 phosphorylation within the 14-3-3 binding motif of MGF's E-domain, modulates protein-protein interactions within the 14-3-3γ interactome, which includes proteins involved in the regulation of contractile function.

Abstract
The human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) UL97 protein is a conserved herpesvirus protein kinase (CHPK) and a viral cyclin-dependent kinase (v-CDK). However, mechanisms regulating its activity in the context of infection are unknown. Here, we identified several cellular regulatory 14-3-3 proteins as UL97-interacting partners that promote UL97 stability. Humans are known to encode seven isoforms of 14-3-3 proteins (β, ε, η, γ, σ, θ, and ζ) that bind phosphoserines or phosphothreonines to impact protein structure, stability, activity, and localization. Our proteomic analysis of UL97 identified 49 interacting partners, including 14-3-3 isoforms β, η, and γ. Furthermore, coimmunoprecipitation with Western blotting assays demonstrated that UL97 interaction with 14-3-3 isoforms β, ε, η, γ, and θ occurs in a kinase activity-dependent manner. Using mutational analysis, we determined the serine residue at amino acid 13 of UL97 is crucial for 14-3-3 interaction. We demonstrate UL97 S13A (serine to alanine substitution at residue 13) retains kinase activity but the mutant protein accumulated at lower levels than WT UL97. Finally, we show both laboratory (AD169) and clinical (TB40/E) strains of HCMV encoding UL97 S13A replicated with WT kinetics in fibroblasts but showed decreased UL97 accumulation. Taken together, we conclude that 14-3-3 proteins interact with and stabilize UL97 during HCMV infection.

Abstract
14-3-3 proteins are important proteins in plants, as they regulate plant growth and development and the response to biotic or abiotic stresses. In this study, a 14-3-3 gene(GenBank accession: OM683281) was screened from the cDNA library of the medicinal species Salvia miltiorrhiza by yeast two-hybrid and cloned. The open reading frame(ORF) was 780 bp, encoding 259 amino a cids. Bioinformatics analysis predicted that the protein was a non-transmembrane protein with the molecular formula of C_(1287)H_(2046)N_(346)O_(422)S_9, relative molecular weight of 29.4 kDa, and no signal peptide. Homologous sequence alignment and phylogenetic tree analysis proved that the protein belonged to 14-3-3 family and had close genetic relationship with the 14-3-3 proteins from Arabidopsis thaliana, Oryza sativa, and Nicotiana tabacum. The 14-3-3 gene was ligated to the prokaryotic expression vector pGEX-4 T-1 and then transformed into Escherichia coli BL21 for the expression of recombinant protein. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR showed that the expression of this gene was different among roots, stems, leaves, and flowers of S. miltiorrhiza. To be specific, the highest expression was found in leaves, followed by stems, and the lowest expression was detected in flowers. S. miltiorrhiza plants were treated with 15% PEG(simulation of drought), and hormones salicylic acid, methyl jasmonate, and ethephon, respectively, and the expression of 14-3-3 gene peaked at the early stage of induction. Therefore, the gene can quickly respond to abiotic stresses such as drought and plant hormone treatments such as salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, and ethylene.

Abstract
The 14-3-3 proteins widely exist in almost all plant species. They specifically recognize and interact with phosphorylated target proteins, including protein kinases, phosphatases, transcription factors and functional proteins, offering an array of opportunities for 14-3-3s to participate in the signal transduction processes. 14-3-3s are multigene families and can form homo- and heterodimers, which confer functional specificity of 14-3-3 proteins. They are widely involved in regulating biochemical and cellular processes and plant growth and development, including cell elongation and division, seed germination, vegetative and reproductive growth, and seed dormancy. They mediate plant response to environmental stresses such as salt, alkaline, osmotic, drought, cold and other abiotic stresses, partially via hormone-related signalling pathways. Although many studies have reviewed the function of 14-3-3 proteins, recent research on plant 14-3-3s has achieved significant advances. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of the fundamental properties of 14-3-3 proteins and systematically summarize and dissect the emerging advances in understanding the roles of 14-3-3s in plant growth and development and abiotic stress responses. Some ambiguous questions about the roles of 14-3-3s under environmental stresses are reviewed. Interesting questions related to plant 14-3-3 functions that remain to be elucidated are also discussed.

Abstract
Enterovirus 71 (EV71) is the major pathogens of human hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). EV71 efficiently escapes innate immunity responses of the host to cause infection. At present, no effective antiviral drugs for EV71 are available. Anemoside B4 (B4) is a natural saponin isolated from the roots of Pulsatilla chinensis (Bunge) Regel. P. chinensis extracts that shows a wide variety of biological activities. In this study, we investigated the antiviral activities of B4 against EV71 both in cell culture and in suckling mice. We showed that B4 (12.5-200 μM) dose dependently increased the viability of EV71-infected RD cells with an IC50 value of 24.95 ± 0.05 μM against EV71. The antiviral activity of B4 was associated with enhanced interferon (IFN)-β response, since knockdown of IFN-β abolished its antiviral activity. We also confirmed that the enhanced IFN response was mediated via activation of retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I) like receptors (RLRs) pathway, and it was executed by upregulation of 14-3-3 protein, which disrupted the interaction between yes-associated protein (YAP) and interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3). By using amino acids in cell culture (SILAC)-based proteomics profiling, we identified the Hippo pathway as the top-ranking functional cluster in B4-treated EV71-infected cells. In vivo experiments were conducted in suckling mice (2-day-old) infected with EV71 and subsequently B4 (200 mg · kg-1 · d-1, i.p.) was administered for 16 days. We showed that B4 administration effectively suppressed EV71 replication and improved muscle inflammation and limb activity. Meanwhile, B4 administration regulated the expressions of HFMD biomarkers IL-10 and IFN-γ, attenuating complications of EV71 infection. Collectively, our results suggest that B4 could enhance the antiviral effect of IFN-β by orchestrating Hippo and RLRs pathway, and B4 would be a potential lead compound for developing an anti-EV71 drug.

Abstract
In agriculture, Trehalase is considered the main target of the biological fungicide validamycin A, and the toxicology mechanism of validamycin A is unknown. 14-3-3 proteins, highly conserved proteins, participate in diverse cellular processes, including enzyme activation, protein localization, and acting as a molecular chaperone. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the 14-3-3 protein Bmh1could interact with Nth1 to respond to specific external stimuli. Here, we characterized FgNth, FgBmh1, and FgBmh2 in Fusarium graminearum. ΔFgNth, ΔFgBmh1, and ΔFgBmh2 displayed great growth defects and their peripheral tips hyphae generated more branches when compared with wild-type (WT) PH-1. When exposed to validamycin A as well as high osmotic and high temperature stresses, ΔFgNth, ΔFgBmh1, and ΔFgBmh2 showed more tolerance than WT. Both ΔFgNth and ΔFgBmh1 displayed reduced deoxynivalenol production but opposite for ΔFgBmh2, and all three deletion mutants showed reduced virulence on wheat coleoptiles. In addition, coimmunoprecipitation (Co-IP) experiments suggested that FgBmh1 and FgBmh2 both interact with FgNth, but no interaction was detected between FgBmh1 and FgBmh2 in our experiments. Further, validamycin A enhances the interaction between FgBmh1 and FgNth in a positive correlation under concentrations of 1 to 100 μg/ml. In addition, both high osmotic and high temperature stresses promote the interaction between FgBmh1 and FgNth. Co-IP assay also showed that neither FgBmh1 nor FgBmh2 could interact with FgPbs2, a MAPKK kinase in the high-osmolarity glycerol pathway. However, FgBmh2 but not FgBmh1 binds to the heat shock protein FgHsp70 in F. graminearum. Taken together, our results demonstrate that FgNth and FgBmh proteins are involved in growth and responses to external stresses and virulence; and validamycin enhanced the interaction between FgNth and FgBmh1in F. graminearum.

Abstract
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is the leading human prion disease and is a major public health concern, with the risk of secondary iatrogenic transmission. Screening for CJD is often based on the detection of 14-3-3 protein in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) through western blot assay and, in a second step, on a more specific method such as RT-QuIC (Real-Time Quaking-Induced Conversion). Alternatives to the detection of 14-3-3 in CSF have recently been proposed, specifically CSF tau proteins, tau/p-tau(181) ratio, and alpha-synuclein. In the present work, we compare the diagnostic performance of these biomarkers with that of 14-3-3 protein in a cohort of suspected CJD patients. Our results indicate that tau detection is the most effective and suitable approach for routine disease detection in a clinical setting. Combination with other biomarkers does not improve overall performance, while the tau/p-tau(181) ratio remains useful for differentiating Alzheimer's from CJD. In the end, the performance of tau protein detection in CSF reached 78% sensitivity and 80% specificity for the detection of CJD. It is interesting to note that the use of an automated method with a high concentration range allows for rapid and accurate results, which is very useful in clinical practice and allows for confirmatory testing such as RT-QuIC without delay.

Abstract
The RHO GTPase family has been suggested to play critical roles in cell growth, migration, and polarization. Regulators and effectors of RHO GTPases have been extensively explored in recent years. However, little attention has been given to RHO family interacting cell polarization regulators (RIPORs), a recently discovered protein family of RHO regulators. RIPOR proteins, namely, RIPOR1-3, bind directly to RHO proteins (A, B and C) via a RHO-binding motif and exert suppressive effects on RHO activity, thereby negatively influencing RHO-regulated cellular functions. In addition, RIPORs are phosphorylated by upstream protein kinases under chemokine stimulation, and this phosphorylation affects not only their subcellular localization but also their interaction with RHO proteins, altering the activation of RHO downstream targets and ultimately impacting cell polarity and migration. In this review, we provide an overview of recent studies on the function of RIPOR proteins in regulating RHO-dependent directional movement in immune responses and other pathophysiological functions.

Abstract
Pollen grains transport the sperm cells through the style tissue via a fast-growing pollen tube to the ovaries where fertilization takes place. Pollen tube growth requires a precisely regulated network of cellular as well as molecular events including the activity of the plasma membrane H+ ATPase, which is known to be regulated by reversible protein phosphorylation and subsequent binding of 14-3-3 isoforms. Immunodetection of the phosphorylated penultimate threonine residue of the pollen plasma membrane H+ ATPase (LilHA1) of Lilium longiflorum pollen revealed a sudden increase in phosphorylation with the start of pollen tube growth. In addition to phosphorylation, pH modulated the binding of 14-3-3 isoforms to the regulatory domain of the H+ ATPase, whereas metabolic components had only small effects on 14-3-3 binding, as tested with in vitro assays using recombinant 14-3-3 isoforms and phosphomimicking substitutions of the threonine residue. Consequently, local H+ influxes and effluxes as well as pH gradients in the pollen tube tip are generated by localized regulation of the H+ ATPase activity rather than by heterogeneous localized distribution in the plasma membrane.

Abstract
An unknown 61 kDa protein is phosphorylated by abscisic acid (ABA)-activated protein kinase in response to ABA and binds to 14-3-3 protein in a phosphorylation-dependent manner in guard-cell protoplasts (GCPs) from Vicia faba. Subsequently, ABA-dependent phosphorylated proteins were identified as basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors, named ABA-responsive kinase substrates (AKSs) in GCPs from Arabidopsis thaliana. However, whether the 61 kDa protein in Vicia GCPs is an AKS is unclear. We performed immunoprecipitation of ABA-treated Vicia GCPs using anti-14-3-3 protein antibodies and identified several AKS isoforms in V. faba (VfAKSs) by mass spectrometry. The 61 kDa protein was identified as VfAKS1. Phosphoproteomic analysis revealed that VfAKSs are phosphorylated at Ser residues, which are important for 14-3-3 protein binding and monomerisation, in response to ABA in GCPs. Orthologs of AtABCG40, an ABA importer in guard cells, and CHC1, a clathrin heavy chain and a regulator of stomatal movement, also co-immunoprecipitated with 14-3-3 protein from guard cells.

Abstract
Macrobrachium rosenbergii Taihu virus (MrTV) is a fierce pathogen that causes high mortality in M. rosenbergii larvae. Little is known about the pathogenesis of MrTV and host-virus interactions. In this study, a virus overlay protein binding assay (VOPBA), followed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis, was carried out to search for novel host molecules that bind with VP3, one of the main capsid proteins of MrTV. Macrobrachium rosenbergii 14-3-3 protein (Mr14-3-3) was identified as the binding protein of VP3, which was further confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) and co-localization assay. A preincubation assay was developed, which indicated that preincubation with recombinant Mr14-3-3 (rMr14-3-3) could significantly decrease the expression level of VP3 in MrTV-infected M. rosenbergii larvae, suggesting that preincubation with rMr14-3-3 could partially block MrTV infection. This study revealed that Mr14-3-3 acts as a binding protein for MrTV-VP3 and plays an important role in MrTV infection, offering a potential target for the development of anti-MrTV therapies.

Abstract
CO2 -responsive CCT protein (CRCT) is a positive regulator of starch synthesis-related genes such as ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase large subunit 1 and starch branching enzyme I particularly in the leaf sheath of rice (Oryza sativa L.). The promoter GUS analysis revealed that CRCT expressed exclusively in the vascular bundle, whereas starch synthesis-related genes were expressed in different sites such as mesophyll cell and starch storage parenchyma cell. However, the chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) using a FLAG-CRCT overexpression line and subsequent qPCR analyses showed that the 5'-flanking regions of these starch synthesis-related genes tended to be enriched by ChIP, suggesting that CRCT can bind to the promoter regions of these genes. The monomer of CRCT is 34.2 kDa; however, CRCT was detected at 270 kDa via gel filtration chromatography, suggesting that CRCT forms a complex in vivo. Immunoprecipitation and subsequent MS analysis pulled down several 14-3-3-like proteins. A yeast two-hybrid analysis and bimolecular fluorescence complementation assays confirmed the interaction between CRCT and 14-3-3-like proteins. Although there is an inconsistency in the place of expression, this study provides important findings regarding the molecular function of CRCT to control the expression of key starch synthesis-related genes.

NDR/LATS‐family protein kinases are conserved among eukaryotes. These protein kinases in yeast and animals phosphorylate specific targets and regulate the cell cycle. Arabidopsis thaliana has eight NDR/LATS‐family protein kinase genes (NDR1‐8), of which NDR2, NDR4, and NDR5 are involved in regulating pollen development. However, the functions of the other NDR/LATS‐family protein kinase genes in plants are unclear. Here, we show that three putative phosphorylation sites of an Arabidopsis basic leucine zipper transcription factor, VIP1, correspond to NDR/LATS‐family protein kinase phosphorylation motifs and that two of these three sites are phosphorylated by NDR2, NDR3, or NDR8 in vitro. Expression of NDR1‐8 was detected in various tissues. An NDR4 NDR6 NDR7 NDR8 quadruple mutation caused embryonic lethality These results suggest that different NDR/LATS‐family protein kinases in plants have distinct physiological roles.

Abstract
The protective effect of Ca2+ against NaCl toxicity was investigated in two rice varieties with contrasting for salt tolerance to understand the mechanistic details of the antagonism to address adverse effects of salinity on agriculture. The study primarily examined the influence of Ca2+ on expression/activity of the effectors and regulators involved in Na+ translocation. Calcium reduced uptake of Na+ concomitant with higher tissue K+ /Na+ in seedlings, comparatively more in salt-tolerant Nona Bokra than in salt-sensitive IR-64, together with a significant increase in root PM H+ ATPase in the former, but not in the latter. Increased antagonism in Nona Bokra could be the result of Ca2+ signalling-mediated phosphorylation of PM H+ ATPase in roots caused by a significant Ca2+ -dependent increase in expression of OsCIPK24, which did not occur in IR-64. Furthermore, significant Ca2+ -mediated NaCl-induced increase in transcription of 14-3-3 protein in Nona Bokra, but not in IR-64, might also lead to a greater protective effect of Ca2+ in the former, as 14-3-3 protein is essential for activating PM H+ ATPase. Thus, efficient functioning of PM H+ ATPase could be key in determining resistance of plants to salinity, implying that identification of the Ca2+ -dependent kinase phosphorylating the PM H+ ATPase threonine residue and manipulation of its expression, together with expression of 14-3-3 proteins could be an important strategy to improve salt tolerance of crops and their cultivation in salt-affected lands.

Abstract
The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that plays a central role in inflammation. The GR activity is also modulated via protein–protein interactions, including binding of 14-3-3 proteins induced by GR phosphorylation. However, the specific phosphorylation sites on the GR that trigger these interactions and their functional consequences are less clear. Hence, we sought to examine this system in more detail. We used phosphorylated GR peptides, biophysical studies, and X-ray crystallography to identify key residues within the ligand-binding domain of the GR, T524 and S617, whose phosphorylation results in binding of the representative 14-3-3 protein 14-3-3ζ. A kinase screen identified misshapen-like kinase 1 (MINK1) as responsible for phosphorylating T524 and Rho-associated protein kinase 1 for phosphorylating S617; cell-based approaches confirmed the importance of both GR phosphosites and MINK1 but not Rho-associated protein kinase 1 alone in inducing GR–14-3-3 binding. Together our results provide molecular-level insight into 14-3-3-mediated regulation of the GR and highlight both MINK1 and the GR–14-3-3 axis as potential targets for future therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Acrolein is a universal contaminant with high nucleophilicity in environment and also an endogenous product from lipid peroxidation or polyamine metabolism. Acrolein can react with nucleophilic amino acids, such as cysteines, lysines and histidines via Michael addition. Also, Schiff base products can be formed between acrolein and free amine of lysines. Accumulating evidences demonstrated that acrolein is involved in many diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Previously we found that oral exposure of acrolein induced AD-like pathology in rats. Here we investigated the acrolein-conjugated proteins in the hippocampus of acrolein-treated mice (3.0 mg/kg/d by gavage for 4 weeks) and aged APP/PS1 mice (the age of 22 months). Acrolein-conjugated proteins were enriched by an aniline-based aldehyde-directed probe, meta-aminophenylacetylene (m-APA). Combined with a quantitative chemoproteomic strategy, 912 proteins were finally identified. Gene ontology analysis revealed several acrolein affected pathways including glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and carbon metabolism. Acrolein are mainly conjugated with 14-3-3 protein and members of small GTPase family in hippocampus. Taken together, our results provide new evidences for the roles of acrolein in AD.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins (PRX) are thiol peroxidases that are highly conserved throughout all biological kingdoms. Increasing evidence suggests that their high reactivity toward peroxides has a function not only in antioxidant defense but in particular in redox regulation of the cell. Peroxiredoxin IIE (PRX-IIE) is one of three PRX types found in plastids and has previously been linked to pathogen defense and protection from protein nitration. However, its posttranslational regulation and its function in the chloroplast protein network remained to be explored. Using recombinant protein, it was shown that the peroxidatic Cys121 is subjected to multiple posttranslational modifications, namely disulfide formation, S-nitrosation, S-glutathionylation, and hyperoxidation. Slightly oxidized glutathione fostered S-glutathionylation and inhibited activity in vitro. Immobilized recombinant PRX-IIE allowed trapping and subsequent identification of interaction partners by mass spectrometry. Interaction with the 14-3-3 υ protein was confirmed in vitro and was shown to be stimulated under oxidizing conditions. Interactions did not depend on phosphorylation as revealed by testing phospho-mimicry variants of PRX-IIE. Based on these data it is proposed that 14-3-3υ guides PRX‑IIE to certain target proteins, possibly for redox regulation. These findings together with the other identified potential interaction partners of type II PRXs localized to plastids, mitochondria, and cytosol provide a new perspective on the redox regulatory network of the cell.

Abstract
Background: Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a chronic disease that causes sequelae and requires prolonged treatment; therefore, new therapeutic approaches are necessary. In view of this, three peptides from Paracoccidioides brasiliensis 14-3-3 protein were selected based on its immunogenicity and therapeutic potential. Methods: The in vitro antifungal activity and cytotoxicity of the 14-3-3 peptides were evaluated. The influence of the peptides in immunological and survival aspects was evaluated in vivo, using Galleria mellonella and the expression of antimicrobial peptide genes in Caenorhabditis elegans. Results: None of the peptides were toxic to HaCaT (skin keratinocyte), MRC-5 (lung fibroblast), and A549 (pneumocyte) cell lines, and only P1 exhibited antifungal activity against Paracoccidioides spp. The peptides could induce an immune response in G. mellonella. Moreover, the peptides caused a delay in the death of Paracoccidioides spp. infected larvae. Regarding C. elegans, the three peptides were able to increase the expression of the antimicrobial peptides. These peptides had essential effects on different aspects of Paracoccidioides spp. infection showing potential for a therapeutic vaccine. Future studies using mammalian methods are necessary to validate our findings.

Abstract
14-3-3 proteins play a major role in the regulation of primary metabolism, protein transport, ion channel activity, signal transduction and biotic/abiotic stress responses. However, their involvement in petal growth and development is largely unknown. Here, we identified and characterized the expression patterns of seven genes of the 14-3-3 family in gerbera. While none of the genes showed any tissue or developmental specificity of spatiotemporal expression, all seven predicted proteins have the nine α-helices typical of 14-3-3 proteins. Following treatment with brassinolide, an endogenous brassinosteroid, the Gh14-3-3 genes displayed various response patterns; for example, Gh14-3-3b and Gh14-3-3f reached their highest expression level at early (2 h) and late (24 h) timepoints, respectively. Further study revealed that overexpression of Gh14-3-3b or Gh14-3-3f promoted cell elongation, leading to an increase in ray petal length. By contrast, silencing of Gh14-3-3b or Gh14-3-3f inhibited petal elongation, which was eliminated partly by brassinolide. Correspondingly, the expression of petal elongation-related and brassinosteroid signaling-related genes was modified in transgenic petals. Taken together, our research suggests that Gh14-3-3b and Gh14-3-3f are positive regulators of brassinosteroid-induced ray petal elongation and thus provides novel insights into the molecular mechanism of petal growth and development.

Abstract
Aminopeptidase N (APN, CD13) is a transmembrane ectopeptidase involved in many crucial cellular functions. Besides its role as a peptidase, APN also mediates signal transduction and is involved in the activation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). MMPs function in tissue remodeling within the extracellular space and are therefore involved in many human diseases, such as fibrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, tumor angiogenesis, and metastasis, as well as viral infections. However, the exact mechanism that leads to APN-driven MMP activation is unclear. It was previously shown that extracellular 14-3-3 adapter proteins bind to APN and thereby induce the transcription of MMPs. As a first step, we sought to identify potential 14-3-3-binding sites in the APN sequence. We constructed a set of phosphorylated peptides derived from APN to probe for interactions. We identified and characterized a canonical 14-3-3-binding site (site 1) within the flexible, structurally unresolved N-terminal APN region using direct binding fluorescence polarization assays and thermodynamic analysis. In addition, we identified a secondary, noncanonical binding site (site 2), which enhances the binding affinity in combination with site 1 by many orders of magnitude. Finally, we solved crystal structures of 14-3-3σ bound to mono- and bis-phosphorylated APN-derived peptides, which revealed atomic details of the binding mode of mono- and bivalent 14-3-3 interactions. Therefore, our findings shed some light on the first steps of APN-mediated MMP activation and open the field for further investigation of this important signaling pathway.

Abstract
Objectives: Anti-N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis and sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (sCJD) share similar clinical features. Here, we present two unusual cases of anti-NMDAR encephalitis who were misdiagnosed as sCJD at first. Methods: We described two patients' clinical manifestations, as well as the string of symptomatological evolution, treatments, and follow-up results. Results: Our patients presented with rapidly progressive dementia, memory problems, psychiatric symptoms, and movement disorders, and we considered all these symptoms as a presenting feature of sCJD at first, but the cerebrospinal fluid examination showed positive results for both the 14-3-3 protein and antibodies against NMDAR. Immunomodulatory treatment led to a resolution of these deficits, and both of them remained in remission after treatment. Conclusion: Anti-NMDAR encephalitis can present with rapidly progressive cognitive decline, and sometimes laboratory investigations can be misleading. The examination for the presence of NMDAR antibodies is necessary, even with the presence of 14-3-3 protein. Early immunomodulatory therapy should be considered, especially for patients with high titers of NMDAR antibodies.

Abstract
During mitosis, chromosomes are compacted in length by more than 100-fold into rod-shaped forms. In yeast, this process depends on the presence of a centromere, which promotes condensation in cis by recruiting mitotic kinases such as Aurora B kinase. This licensing mechanism enables the cell to discriminate chromosomal from noncentromeric DNA and to prohibit the propagation of the latter. Aurora B kinase elicits a cascade of events starting with phosphorylation of histone H3 serine 10 (H3S10ph), which signals the recruitment of lysine deacetylase Hst2 and the removal of lysine 16 acetylation in histone 4. The unmasked histone 4 tails interact with the acidic patch of neighboring nucleosomes to drive short-range compaction of chromatin, but the mechanistic details surrounding the Hst2 activity remain unclear. Using in vitro and in vivo assays, we demonstrate that the interaction of Hst2 with H3S10ph is mediated by the yeast 14-3-3 protein Bmh1. As a homodimer, Bmh1 binds simultaneously to H3S10ph and the phosphorylated C-terminus of Hst2. Our pull-down experiments with extracts of synchronized cells show that the Hst2–Bmh1 interaction is cell cycle dependent, peaking in the M phase. Furthermore, we show that phosphorylation of C-terminal residues of Hst2, introduced by genetic code expansion, stimulates its deacetylase activity. Hence, the data presented here identify Bmh1 as a key player in the mechanism of licensing of chromosome compaction in mitosis.

Abstract
Regulation of inflammation is a central part of the maintenance of homeostasis by the immune system. One important class of regulatory protein that has been shown to have effects on the inflammatory process are the 14-3-3 proteins. Herein we describe the roles that have been identified for 14-3-3 in regulation of the inflammatory response. These roles encompass regulation of the response that affect inflammation at the genetic, molecular and cellular levels. At a genetic level 14-3-3 is involved in the regulation of multiple transcription factors and affects the transcription of key effectors of the immune response. At a molecular level many of the constituent parts of the inflammatory process, such as pattern recognition receptors, protease activated receptors and cytokines are regulated through phosphorylation and recognition by 14-3-3 whilst disruption of the recognition processes has been observed to result in clinical syndromes. 14-3-3 is also involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation, this has been shown to affect the immune system, particularly T- and B-cells. Finally, we discuss how abnormal levels of 14-3-3 contribute to undesirable immune responses and chronic inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae uses several type III secretion system (T3SS) secreted effectors, namely XopN, XopQ, XopX and XopZ, to suppress rice immune responses that are induced following treatment with cell wall degrading enzymes. Here we show that a T3SS secreted effector XopX interacts with two of the eight rice 14-3-3 proteins. Mutants of XopX that are defective in 14-3-3 binding are also defective in suppression of immune responses, suggesting that interaction with 14-3-3 proteins is required for suppression of host innate immunity. However, Agrobacterium-mediated delivery of both XopQ and XopX into rice cells results in induction of rice immune responses. These immune responses are not observed when either protein is individually delivered into rice cells. XopQ-XopX-induced rice immune responses are not observed with a XopX mutant that is defective in 14-3-3 binding. Yeast two-hybrid, bimolecular fluorescence complementation and co-immunoprecipitation assays indicate that XopQ and XopX interact with each other. A screen for Xanthomonas effectors that can suppress XopQ-XopX-induced rice immune responses led to the identification of five effectors, namely XopU, XopV, XopP, XopG and AvrBs2, that could individually suppress these immune responses. These results suggest a complex interplay of Xanthomonas T3SS effectors in suppression of both pathogen-triggered immunity and effector-triggered immunity to promote virulence on rice.

Abstract
The calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase-2 (CaMKK2) is a key regulator of cellular and whole-body energy metabolism. It is known to be activated by increases in intracellular Ca2+, but the mechanisms by which it is inactivated are less clear. CaMKK2 inhibition protects against prostate cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, and metabolic derangements induced by a high-fat diet; therefore, elucidating the intracellular mechanisms that inactivate CaMKK2 has important therapeutic implications. Here we show that stimulation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) signaling in cells inactivates CaMKK2 by phosphorylation of three conserved serine residues. PKA-dependent phosphorylation of Ser495 directly impairs calcium-calmodulin activation, whereas phosphorylation of Ser100 and Ser511 mediate recruitment of 14-3-3 adaptor proteins that hold CaMKK2 in the inactivated state by preventing dephosphorylation of phospho-Ser495 We also report the crystal structure of 14-3-3ζ bound to a synthetic diphosphorylated peptide that reveals how the canonical (Ser511) and noncanonical (Ser100) 14-3-3 consensus sites on CaMKK2 cooperate to bind 14-3-3 proteins. Our findings provide detailed molecular insights into how cAMP-PKA signaling inactivates CaMKK2 and reveals a pathway to inhibit CaMKK2 with potential for treating human diseases.

Abstract
14-3-3 proteins are present in all eukaryotic organisms and are ubiquitously expressed in a broad range of tissues and cellular compartments. They are regulatory adapter proteins that play key roles in a variety of signaling pathways, and have been proposed as suitable targets for the control and detection of certain parasites. Trichinella britovi is a widely-distributed parasitic nematode, transmitted through ingestion of meat products containing invasive larvae. The present study describes the cloning and expression of Tb14-3-3, and investigates the immunological and protective potential of the recombinant protein. Immunization of mice with rTb14-3-3 triggered an IgG response, and significant differences, in the profiles of secreted cytokines observed in vitro, between experimental groups. Nonetheless, neither specific antibodies, nor increased secretion of IFNγ, IL-4, and IL-10 cytokines, conferred greater protection against infection. No reduction in larval burden was observed during recovery at 48 dpi. Additionally, rTb14-3-3 was not recognized by sera from the infected control mice, except for one, suggesting some mismatch between native and recombinant Tb14-3-3 antigenic sites. Therefore, before 14-3-3 can be considered a potential tool for Trichinella detection and vaccination, more research regarding its target proteins, and actual specific function, is needed.

Abstract
Steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (STARD1) is regulated by phosphorylation and 14-3-3 protein binding. STARD1 is a key player in cholesterol transport in mitochondria, and its regulation is not fully understood. Tugaeva et al. provide novel insights on the site-specific phosphorylation and subsequent 14-3-3-dependent regulation of STARD1 function. These results may help us understand the mechanism behind the regulation of steroidogenesis. Comment on: https://doi.org/10.1111/febs.15474.

Abstract
The anticancer effects of curcumin are based on the induction of apoptosis, but the specific mechanisms have not yet been fully elucidated. To address this issue, we investigated the effects of curcumin on the intrinsic apoptosis pathway using mitochondria from A549 cells. Curcumin decreased the levels of 14-3-3 proteins, key molecules that inhibit the activation of proapoptotic factors known as BH3-only proteins (e.g. Bad). Curcumin-induced suppression of 14-3-3 protein levels was associated with reduced cytosolic Bad and elevation of mitochondrial Bad, leading to a drop in the mitochondrial membrane potential. 14-3-3 proteins generally interact with Bad phosphorylated by AKT, thus preventing its translocation to the mitochondria where it can promote cell death. Curcumin not only decreased the expression of 14-3-3 proteins but also promoted Bad dephosphorylation in an AKT-dependent fashion. Our results provide novel evidence for the induction of apoptosis by curcumin at multiple stages of the mitochondrial cascade.

Abstract
The evolutionarily-conserved 14-3-3 proteins regulate many cellular processes through binding to various phosphorylated targets in eukaryotes. It first appears in Dictyostelium, however its role in this organism is poorly understood. Here we show that down-regulation of the 14-3-3 impairs chemotaxis and causes multiple-tip formation in Dictyostelium. Mechanistically, the 14-3-3 is a critical component of cyclic AMP (cAMP) signaling and binds to nearly a hundred of proteins in Dictyostelium, including a number of evolutionarily-conserved proteins. 14-3-3 - interaction with its targets is up-regulated in response to developmental cues/regulators including starvation, osmotic stress and cAMP. cAMP stimulates 14-3-3 - binding to phospho-Ser431 on a guanine nucleotide exchange factor Gef-Q. Interestingly, overexpression of Gef-QSer431Ala mutant but not wild-type Gef-Q protein causes a multiple-tip phenotype in Dictyostelium, which partially resembles phenotypes of the 14-3-3 - deficient mutant. Collectively, these data demonstrate that the 14-3-3 plays an important role in Dictyostelium and may help to deepen our understanding of the evolution of 14-3-3 - interactomes in eukaryotes.

Abstract
Translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 34 (TOMM34) orchestrates heat shock protein 70 (HSP70)/HSP90-mediated transport of mitochondrial precursor proteins. Here, using in vitro phosphorylation and refolding assays, analytical size-exclusion chromatography, and hydrogen/deuterium exchange MS, we found that TOMM34 associates with 14-3-3 proteins after its phosphorylation by protein kinase A (PKA). PKA preferentially targeted two serine residues in TOMM34: Ser93 and Ser160, located in the tetratricopeptide repeat 1 (TPR1) domain and the interdomain linker, respectively. Both of these residues were necessary for efficient 14-3-3 protein binding. We determined that phosphorylation-induced structural changes in TOMM34 are further augmented by binding to 14-3-3, leading to destabilization of TOMM34's secondary structure. We also observed that this interaction with 14-3-3 occludes the TOMM34 interaction interface with ATP-bound HSP70 dimers, which leaves them intact and thereby eliminates an inhibitory effect of TOMM34 on HSP70-mediated refolding in vitro In contrast, we noted that TOMM34 in complex with 14-3-3 could bind HSP90. Both TOMM34 and 14-3-3 participated in cytosolic precursor protein transport mediated by the coordinated activities of HSP70 and HSP90. Our results provide important insights into how PKA-mediated phosphorylation and 14-3-3 binding regulate the availability of TOMM34 for its interaction with HSP70.

Abstract
NO was involved in H2-induced adventitious rooting by regulating the protein and gene expressions of PM H+-ATPase and 14-3-3. Simultaneously, the interaction of PM H+-ATPase and 14-3-3 protein was also involved in this process. Hydrogen gas (H2) and nitric oxide (NO) have been shown to be involved in plant growth and development. The results in this study revealed that NO was involved in H2-induced adventitious root formation. Western blot (WB) analysis showed that the protein abundances of plasma membrane H+-ATPase (PM H+-ATPase) and 14-3-3 protein were increased after H2, NO, H2 plus NO treatments, whereas their protein abundances were down regulated when NO scavenger carboxy-2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide (cPTI O) was added. Moreover, the mRNA abundances of the HA3 and 14-3-3(7) gene as well as the activities of PM H+-ATPase (EC 3.6.1.35) and H+ pump were in full agreement with the changes of protein abundance. Phosphorylation of PM H+-ATPase and the interaction of PM H+-ATPase and 14-3-3 protein were detected by co-immunoprecipitation analysis. H2 and NO significantly up regulated the phosphorylation of PM H+-ATPase and the interaction of PM H+-ATPase and 14-3-3 protein. Conversely, the stimulation of PM H+-ATPase phosphorylation and protein interaction were significantly diminished by cPTIO. Protein interaction activator fusicoccin (FC) and inhibitor adenosine monophosphate (AMP) of PM H+-ATPase and 14-3-3 were used in this study, and the results showed that FC significantly increased the abundances of PM H+-ATPase and 14-3-3, while AMP showed opposite trends. We further proved the critical roles of PM H+-ATPase and 14-3-3 protein interaction in NO-H2-induced adventitious root formation. Taken together, our results suggested that NO might be involved in H2-induced adventitious rooting by regulating the expression and the interaction of PM H+-ATPase and 14-3-3 protein.

Abstract
Sucrose-non-fermenting-1-related protein kinase-2s (SnRK2s) are critical for plant abiotic stress responses, including abscisic acid (ABA) signaling. Here, we develop a genetically encoded reporter for SnRK2 kinase activity. This sensor, named SNACS, shows an increase in the ratio of yellow to cyan fluorescence emission by OST1/SnRK2.6-mediated phosphorylation of a defined serine residue in SNACS. ABA rapidly increases FRET efficiency in N. benthamiana leaf cells and Arabidopsis guard cells. Interestingly, protein kinase inhibition decreases FRET efficiency in guard cells, providing direct experimental evidence that basal SnRK2 activity prevails in guard cells. Moreover, in contrast to ABA, the stomatal closing stimuli, elevated CO2 and MeJA, did not increase SNACS FRET ratios. These findings and gas exchange analyses of quintuple/sextuple ABA receptor mutants show that stomatal CO2 signaling requires basal ABA and SnRK2 signaling, but not SnRK2 activation. A recent model that CO2 signaling is mediated by PYL4/PYL5 ABA-receptors could not be supported here in two independent labs. We report a potent approach for real-time live-cell investigations of stress signaling.

Abstract
Panax notoginseng is a traditional medicinal herb in China. However, the high capacity of its roots to accumulate cadmium (Cd) poses a potential risk to human health. Our previous study showed that nitrate reductase (NR)-dependent nitric oxide (NO) production promoted Cd accumulation in P. notoginseng root cell walls. In this study, the role of Mg in the regulation of NO production and Cd accumulation in P. notoginseng roots was characterized. Exposure of P. notoginseng roots to increasing concentrations of Cd resulted in a linear increase in NO production. The application of 2 mM Mg for 24 h significantly alleviated Cd-induced NO production and Cd accumulation in roots, which coincided with a significant decrease in the NR activity. Western analysis suggested that Mg increased the interaction between the 14-3-3 protein and NR, which might have been a reason for the Mg-mediated decrease in NR activity and NO production under Cd stress. These results suggested that Mg-mediated alleviation of Cd-induced NO production and Cd accumulation is achieved by enhancement of the interaction between the 14-3-3 protein and NR in P. notoginseng roots.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) is an extremely rare fatal and infectious neurodegenerative brain disorder characterized by rapidly progressive dementia, cerebellar ataxia, and visual disturbances. This article summarizes the retrospective analysis of 104 sCJD patients in the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from 2003 to 2019. METHODS A retrospective analysis of the medical records of the 104 patients diagnosed with sCJD was performed from the aspects of demographic data, clinical manifestations, laboratory examinations, cerebrospinal fluid analysis, electroencephalograms (EEGs), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) scans, positron emission tomography (PET) scans, and prion protein gene mutations. RESULTS In the 104 sCJD patients, pathological evidence of a spongiform change was found in 11 patients, while the remaining 93 patients were probable sCJD. The 104 patients included 57 males and 47 females, with the age of onset ranging from 29 to 82 (mean: 58, median: 60) years. The time from disease onset to death ranged from 1 to 36 months. Most of the patients died 7-12 months after the onset of sCJD. In most patients, rapidly progressive dementia appeared as the initial symptom, followed by cerebellar ataxia, visual disturbances, and neurobehavioral disorders. Most patients' DWI images showed symmetric or asymmetric hyperintensity in the cortex. In terms of EEGs, 38.2% of the patients had periodic sharp wave complexes. The sensitivity of 14-3-3 protein detection was 34.1%. The brain PET scans of 50 patients with sCJD presented 96% sensitivity for the diagnosis of sCJD. CONCLUSIONS This study indicated that sCJD occurred at an early age in patients in China. The sensitivity of 14-3-3 protein detection was significantly low, but brain PET was highly sensitive in the diagnosis of sCJD.

Abstract
Myosin-IC (Myo1c) has been proposed to function in delivery of glucose transporter type 4 (GLUT4)-containing vesicles to the plasma membrane in response to insulin stimulation. Current evidence suggests that, upon insulin stimulation, Myo1c is phosphorylated at Ser701, leading to binding of the signaling protein 14-3-3β. Biochemical and functional details of the Myo1c-14-3-3β interaction have yet to be described. Using recombinantly expressed proteins and mass spectrometry-based analyses to monitor Myo1c phosphorylation, along with pulldown, fluorescence binding, and additional biochemical assays, we show here that 14-3-3β is a dimer and, consistent with previous work, that it binds to Myo1c in the presence of calcium. This interaction was associated with dissociation of calmodulin (CaM) from the IQ motif in Myo1c. Surprisingly, we found that 14-3-3β binds to Myo1c independent of Ser701 phosphorylation in vitro Additionally, in contrast to previous reports, we did not observe Myo1c Ser701 phosphorylation by Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), although CaMKII phosphorylated four other Myo1c sites. The presence of 14-3-3β had little effect on the actin-activated ATPase or motile activities of Myo1c. Given these results, it is unlikely that 14-3-3β acts as a cargo adaptor for Myo1c-powered transport; rather, we propose that 14-3-3β binds Myo1c in the presence of calcium and stabilizes the calmodulin-dissociated, nonmotile myosin.
