Insights into Conformational Dynamics and Allostery in DNMT1-H3Ub/USP7 Interactions

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) including DNMT1 are a conserved family of cytosine methylases that play crucial roles in epigenetic regulation. The versatile functions of DNMT1 rely on allosteric networks between its different interacting partners ...

Modeling effects of L-type ca(2+) current and na(+)-ca(2+) exchanger on ca(2+) trigger flux in rabbit myocytes with realistic T-tubule geometries. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The transverse tubular system of rabbit ventricular myocytes consists of cell membrane invaginations (t-tubules) that are essential for efficient cardiac excitation-contraction coupling. In this study, we investigate how t-tubule micro-anatomy, L-type Ca(

Identification of Alternative Allosteric Sites in Glycolytic Enzymes for Potential Use as Species-Specific Drug Targets

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2020
Three allosteric glycolytic enzymes, phosphofructokinase, glyceraldehyde-3 phosphate dehydrogenase and pyruvate kinase, associated with bacterial, parasitic and human species, were explored to identify potential allosteric sites that would be used as ...

FimH as a scaffold for regulated molecular recognition

open access: yesJournal of Biological Engineering, 2021
Background Recognition proteins are critical in many biotechnology applications and would be even more useful if their binding could be regulated. The current gold standard for recognition molecules, antibodies, lacks convenient regulation.

Thermodynamic and Kinetic Analysis of Sensitivity Amplification in Biological Signal Transduction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Based on a thermodynamic analysis of the kinetic model for the protein phosphorylation-dephosphorylation cycle, we study the ATP (or GTP) energy utilization of this ubiquitous biological signal transduction process.

Integrative residue-intuitive machine learning and MD Approach to Unveil Allosteric Site and Mechanism for β2AR

open access: yesNature Communications
Allosteric drugs offer a new avenue for modern drug design. However, the identification of cryptic allosteric sites presents a formidable challenge. Following the allostery nature of residue-driven conformation transition, we propose a state-of-the-art ...

Protein dynamics underlying allosteric regulation

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology
Allostery is the mechanism by which information and control are propagated in biomolecules. It regulates ligand binding, chemical reactions, and conformational changes. An increasing level of experimental resolution and control over allosteric mechanisms promises a deeper understanding of the molecular basis for life and powerful new therapeutics.

Allosteric regulation of epigenetic modifying enzymes [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2017
Epigenetic enzymes including histone modifying enzymes are key regulators of gene expression in normal and disease processes. Many drug development strategies to target histone modifying enzymes have focused on ligands that bind to enzyme active sites, but allosteric pockets offer potentially attractive opportunities for therapeutic development. Recent
