Molecular basis for the allosteric activation mechanism of the heterodimeric imidazole glycerol phosphate synthase complex

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The allosteric regulation of the bienzyme complex imidazole glycerol phosphate synthase (HisFH) remains to be elucidated. Here, the authors provide structural insights into the dynamic allosteric mechanism by which ligand binding to the cyclase and ...

Modes of allosteric regulation of the ubiquitination machinery [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 2020
Ubiquitination is a post-translational modification crucial for cellular signaling. A diverse range of enzymes constitute the machinery that mediates attachment of ubiquitin onto target proteins. This diversity allows the targeting of various proteins in a highly regulated fashion.

Discovery of intramolecular signal transduction network based on a new protein dynamics model of energy dissipation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
A novel approach to reveal intramolecular signal transduction network is proposed in this work. To this end, a new algorithm of network construction is developed, which is based on a new protein dynamics model of energy dissipation. A key feature of this

Allosteric modulation of G protein-coupled receptor signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest family of transmembrane proteins, regulate a wide array of physiological processes in response to extracellular signals. Although these receptors have proven to be the most successful class of drug targets,

Allosteric regulation of Argonaute proteins by miRNAs [PDF]

open access: yesNature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2010
Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) bind to Argonaute (AGO) family proteins to form a related set of effector complexes that have diverse roles in post-transcriptional gene regulation throughout the eukaryotic lineage. Here sequence and structural analysis of the MID domain of the AGO proteins identified similarities with a family of

Dimeric allostery mechanism of the plant circadian clock photoreceptor ZEITLUPE.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2021
In Arabidopsis thaliana, the Light-Oxygen-Voltage (LOV) domain containing protein ZEITLUPE (ZTL) integrates light quality, intensity, and duration into regulation of the circadian clock.

Allosteric regulation of phenylalanine hydroxylase [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2012
The liver enzyme phenylalanine hydroxylase is responsible for conversion of excess phenylalanine in the diet to tyrosine. Phenylalanine hydroxylase is activated by phenylalanine; this activation is inhibited by the physiological reducing substrate tetrahydrobiopterin.
