BACTERIAL MOONLIGHTING PROTEINS [PDF]

Postępy Mikrobiologii, 2017
Abstract Existence of moonlighting proteins in microorganisms is a known phenomenon, yet still not well understood. Moonlighting proteins have at least two independent biological functions, which must be performed by one polypeptide chain without separation into protein domains.

Bacterial Approaches for Assembling Iron-Sulfur Proteins

mBio, 2021
Building iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters and assembling Fe-S proteins are essential actions for life on Earth. The three processes that sustain life, photosynthesis, nitrogen fixation, and respiration, require Fe-S proteins.

How Quickly Do Proteins Fold and Unfold, and What Structural Parameters Correlate with These Values?

Biomolecules, 2020
The correlations between the logarithm of the unfolding rate of 108 proteins and their structural parameters were calculated. We showed that there is a good correlation between the logarithm of folding and unfolding rates (0.79) and protein stability and

Bacterial Enhancer Binding Proteins—AAA⁺ Proteins in Transcription Activation

Biomolecules, 2020
Bacterial enhancer-binding proteins (bEBPs) are specialised transcriptional activators. bEBPs are hexameric AAA+ ATPases and use ATPase activities to remodel RNA polymerase (RNAP) complexes that contain the major variant sigma factor, σ54 to convert

How Does the Spatial Confinement of FtsZ to a Membrane Surface Affect Its Polymerization Properties and Function?

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
FtsZ is the cytoskeletal protein that organizes the formation of the septal ring and orchestrates bacterial cell division. Its association to the membrane is essential for its function.

ENGINEERED FLUORESCENT PROTEINS ILLUMINATE THE BACTERIAL PERIPLASM

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2012
The bacterial periplasm is of special interest whenever cell factories are designed and engineered. Recombinantely produced proteins are targeted to the periplasmic space of Gram negative bacteria to take advantage of the authentic N-termini, disulfide ...

ANAPHYLAXIS INDUCED BY BACTERIAL PROTEINS. [PDF]

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1908
The discovery of the production of hypersensibility, in animals to horse serum, egg white, etc., suggested the possibility of a similar hypersensitization to other proteid materials. It was thought possible that the protoplasm of bacterial cells might lead to similar effects, and in consequence there might be danger from the employment of bacterial ...
