Raccosta S, Librizzi F, Jagger A, Noto R, Martorana V, Lomas D, et al.
Materials (Basel) . 2021 Jun; 14(10). PMID: 34063488
α1-Antitrypsin is a protease inhibitor belonging to the serpin family. Serpin polymerisation is at the core of a class of genetic conformational diseases called serpinopathies. These polymers are known to...

McKimpson W, Chen Y, Irving J, Zheng M, Weinberger J, Tan W, et al.
Dev Cell . 2021 Mar; 56(6):747-760.e6. PMID: 33667344
Loss of insulin-secreting pancreatic β cells through apoptosis contributes to the progression of type 2 diabetes, but underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we identify a pathway in which the cell...

Lomas D, Irving J, Arico-Muendel C, Belyanskaya S, Brewster A, Brown M, et al.
EMBO Mol Med . 2021 Jan; 13(3):e13167. PMID: 33512066
Severe α -antitrypsin deficiency results from the Z allele (Glu342Lys) that causes the accumulation of homopolymers of mutant α -antitrypsin within the endoplasmic reticulum of hepatocytes in association with liver...

Jagger A, Waudby C, Irving J, Christodoulou J, Lomas D
Nat Commun . 2020 Dec; 11(1):6371. PMID: 33311470
Genetic mutations predispose the serine protease inhibitor α-antitrypsin to misfolding and polymerisation within hepatocytes, causing liver disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. This misfolding occurs via a transiently populated intermediate...

Faull S, Elliston E, Gooptu B, Jagger A, Aldobiyan I, Redzej A, et al.
Sci Adv . 2020 Oct; 6(43). PMID: 33087346
The serpinopathies are among a diverse set of conformational diseases that involve the aberrant self-association of proteins into ordered aggregates. α-Antitrypsin deficiency is the archetypal serpinopathy and results from the...

Laffranchi M, Elliston E, Miranda E, Perez J, Ronzoni R, Jagger A, et al.
JCI Insight . 2020 Jul; 5(14). PMID: 32699193
The α-1-antitrypsin (or alpha-1-antitrypsin, A1AT) Z variant is the primary cause of severe A1AT deficiency and forms polymeric chains that aggregate in the endoplasmic reticulum of hepatocytes. Around 2%-5% of...

Wilson K, Jagger A, Walker M, Seinkmane E, Fox J, Kroger R, et al.
J Cell Sci . 2018 Jan; 131(4). PMID: 29361539
Glycans are inherently heterogeneous, yet glycosylation is essential in eukaryotes, and glycans show characteristic cell type-dependent distributions. By using an immortalized human mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) line model, we show...

Motamedi-Shad N, Jagger A, Liedtke M, Faull S, Nanda A, Salvadori E, et al.
Biochem J . 2016 Jul; 473(19):3269-90. PMID: 27407165
Serpins are important regulators of proteolytic pathways with an antiprotease activity that involves a conformational transition from a metastable to a hyperstable state. Certain mutations permit the transition to occur...
