Diversity of ankyrins in the brain

Biochemical Society Transactions, 1991
Introduction A major revolution in biology has resulted in the identification and characterization of many of the components of cells at a molecular level. A significant challenge for the future is to determine how these molecules are assembled in cells and, at a higher level of organization, how the molecular ensembles of cells are able to participate

Spectrin and ankyrin in brain

Cell Motility, 1983
AbstractFurther similarity between mammalian erythrocyte spectrin and pig brain spectrin has been demonstrated by (a) formation of hybrid molecules with brain α‐chains and erythrocyte β‐chains and by (b) identification of an ankyrin protein in brain membranes.

Ankyrin Away

Science's STKE, 2001
One mechanism for increasing [Ca 2+ ] i is by release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) through the activation of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3R). Hayashi and Su provide evidence that an interaction between the cytoskeletal adaptor ankyrin and sigma-1 receptors regulates the ...

Ankyrin repeats as a dimerization module

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2018
Legionella pneumophila is a pathogen, causing severe pneumonia in humans called Legionnaires' disease. AnkC (LegA12) is a poorly characterized 495-residue effector protein conserved in multiple Legionella species. Here, we report the crystal structure of a C-terminally truncated AnkC (2-384) at 3.2 Å resolution.

Ankyrin for methylated lysines

Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2008
The ankyrin repeats of the G9a and GLP histone methyltransferases have now been shown to be binding modules for mono- and dimethyllysine histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9), revealing a new function for an ankyrin repeat domain and showing that a polypeptide chain can both create and recognize the same histone mark.

The inhibitory ankyrin and activator Rel proteins

Current Biology, 1992
The gene families encoding the proteins NF-kappa B, c-Rel and Dorsal, in conjunction with their respective inhibitors l kappa B, pp40, and Cactus, achieve specificity in gene regulation by means of common principles. The related activities of NF-kappa B and Dorsal are mediated by heterodimeric or homodimeric complexes of proteins containing the ...

Superfamily of ankyrin repeat proteins in tomato

Gene, 2013
The ankyrin repeat (ANK) protein family plays a crucial role in plant growth and development and in response to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, no detailed information concerning this family is available for tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) due to the limited information on whole genome sequences.

Where spectrin snuggles with ankyrin

Blood, 2009
Using the crystal structure of β-spectrin repeats 14 and 15 that bind ankyrin, together with a crystal structure of a fragment of ankyrin that binds spectrin, and detailed site-directed mutagenesis, Stabach and Ipsaro and their respective colleagues analyze for the first time the structure of the ankyrin-β-spectrin bridge that connects band 3 (AE1) and

Mechanistic studies of ankyrin-B/ankyrin-G autoinhibition and regulation

2015
Ankyrins are a family of scaffold proteins, which serves to link great varieties of functional related but structurally diverse integral membrane proteins to the spectrin-based cytoskeletons. In vertebrates, the Ankyrin family consists of three members: ankyrin-R (AnkR), ankyrin-B (AnkB) and ankyrin-G (AnkG), encoded by ANK1, ANK2 and ANK3 ...
