Evaluating the Potential for Halogen Bonding in the Oxyanion Hole of Ketosteroid Isomerase Using Unnatural Amino Acid Mutagenesis [PDF]
ACS Chemical Biology, 2009 There has recently been an increasing interest in controlling macromolecular conformations and interactions through halogen bonding. Halogen bonds are favorable electrostatic interactions between polarized, electropositive chlorine, bromine, or iodine atoms and electronegative atoms such as oxygen or nitrogen.

The plant Nudix hydrolase family. [PDF]
, 2008 Nudix hydrolases are a family of proteins defined by a conserved amino-acid sequence GX(5)-EX(7)REUXEEXGU, where U is a hydrophobic residue. These enzymes are widely distributed among all classes of organisms and catalyze, with varying degrees of ...

The novel missense mutation Met48Lys in FKBP22 changes its structure and functions. [PDF]
, 2020 Mutations in the FKBP14 gene encoding FKBP22 (FK506 Binding Protein 22 kDa) cause kyphoscoliotic Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (kEDS). The first clinical report showed that a lack of FKBP22 protein due to mutations causing nonsense-mediated decay of the mRNA ...

GENETICS AND BIOCHEMISTRY OF DEHALOGENATING ENZYMES [PDF]
, 1994 Microorganisms that can utilize halogenated compounds as a growth substrate generally produce enzymes whose function is carbon-halogen bond cleavage. Based on substrate range, reaction type and gene sequences, the dehalogenating enzymes can be classified

Genetic analysis of the NifM dependence of the nitrogenase iron proteins
mBioNifH maturation in certain diazotrophic bacteria depends on NifM, a protein with a PpiC-isomerase domain. Intriguingly, the putative proline substrate for NifM is present in NifH proteins from strains lacking nifM, raising questions regarding the actual ...

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1980 gamma-Carboxymuconolactone decarobxylase (EC 4.1.1.44) and muconolactone isomerase (EC 5.3.3.4) mediate chemically analogous reactions in bacteria. The enzymes are inducible, and different metabolites trigger the respective syntheses of the decarboxylases in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus and Pseudomonas putida. The decarobxylases share similar oligomeric

Molecular characterization of cyclophilin A-like protein from Piriformospora indica for its potential role to abiotic stress tolerance in E. coli [PDF]
, 2013 BACKGROUND: Cyclophilins (CyP), conserved in all genera, are known to have regulatory responses of various cellular processes including stress tolerance. Interestingly, CyP has a crucial role as peptidyl-prolyl cis–trans isomerases (PPIases). Our earlier

The platelet-surface thiol isomerase enzyme ERp57 modulates platelet function [PDF]
, 2011 Background: Thiol isomerases are a family of endoplasmic reticulum enzymes which orchestrate redox-based modifications of protein disulphide bonds. Previous studies have identified important roles for the thiol isomerases PDI and ERp5 in the regulation ...
