A pH Switch Controls Zinc Binding in Tomato Copper-Zinc Superoxide Dismutase
Sea K, Taylor A, Thomas S, Liba A, Bergman I, Holloway S, et al.
Biochemistry . 2021 May; 60(20):1597-1608. PMID: 33961402
Copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1) is a major antioxidant metalloenzyme that protects cells from oxidative damage by superoxide anions (O). Structural, biophysical, and other characteristics have in the past been compiled...

Bactericidal Disruption of Magnesium Metallostasis in Mycobacterium tuberculosis Is Counteracted by Mutations in the Metal Ion Transporter CorA
Lopez Quezada L, Silve S, Kelinske M, Liba A, Diaz Gonzalez C, Kotev M, et al.
mBio . 2019 Jul; 10(4). PMID: 31289182
A defining characteristic of treating tuberculosis is the need for prolonged administration of multiple drugs. This may be due in part to subpopulations of slowly replicating or nonreplicating bacilli exhibiting...

Single Cell Multiplex Protein Measurements through Rare Earth Element Immunolabeling, Laser Capture Microdissection and Inductively Coupled Mass Spectrometry
Liba A, Wanagat J
J Cytol Histol . 2016 May; 5(6). PMID: 27239387
Complex diseases such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, and aging are the primary causes of death in the US. These diseases cause heterogeneous conditions among cells, conditions that cannot be...

Disruption of an M. tuberculosis membrane protein causes a magnesium-dependent cell division defect and failure to persist in mice
Goodsmith N, Guo X, Vandal O, Vaubourgeix J, Wang R, Botella H, et al.
PLoS Pathog . 2015 Feb; 11(2):e1004645. PMID: 25658098
The identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis genes necessary for persistence in vivo provides insight into bacterial biology as well as host defense strategies. We show that disruption of M. tuberculosis membrane...

Advantages of reaction cell ICP-MS on doubly charged interferences for arsenic and selenium analysis in foods
Jackson B, Liba A, Nelson J
J Anal At Spectrom . 2015 Jan; 2015. PMID: 25609851
Recent reports of As concentrations in certain food and drinks have garnered public concern and led to a lowering of the US guideline maximum concentration for inorganic As in apple...

Copper and zinc metallation status of copper-zinc superoxide dismutase from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis transgenic mice
Lelie H, Liba A, Bourassa M, Chattopadhyay M, Chan P, Gralla E, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2010 Nov; 286(4):2795-806. PMID: 21068388
Mutations in the metalloenzyme copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1) cause one form of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and metals are suspected to play a pivotal role in ALS pathology. To...

Metal deficiency increases aberrant hydrophobicity of mutant superoxide dismutases that cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Tiwari A, Liba A, Sohn S, Seetharaman S, Bilsel O, Matthews C, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2009 Aug; 284(40):27746-58. PMID: 19651777
The mechanisms by which mutant variants of Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD1) cause familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis are not clearly understood. Evidence to date suggests that altered conformations of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis...
