High affinity divalent cation binding to actin. Effect of low affinity salt binding.

open access: yesThe Journal of biological chemistry, 1989
Monomeric actin labeled with the fluorescent probe N-iodoacetyl-N'-(5-sulfo-1-naphthyl)ethylenediamine (1,5-I-AEDANS-actin) displays a fast fluorescence intensity increase immediately upon addition of salt and then a slow fluorescence intensity change concurrent with Ca2+/Mg2+ exchange at the high affinity divalent cation binding site on actin.

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

Molecular cloning of the high affinity calcium binding protein (calreticulin) of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum

open access: yes, 1989
A cDNA clone encoding the high affinity Ca2+-binding protein (HACBP) of rabbit skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum was isolated and sequenced. The cDNA encoded a protein of 418 amino acids, but a comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence with the ...

The C-Domain of the NAC Transcription Factor ANAC019 Is Necessary for pH-Tuned DNA Binding through a Histidine Switch in the N-Domain

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: The affinity of transcription factors (TFs) for their target DNA is a critical determinant of gene expression. Whether the DNA-binding domain (DBD) of TFs alone can regulate binding affinity to DNA is an important question for identifying the ...

Mass spectrometry based identification of AMP‐O‐Tris generated by Thermococcus onnurineus Cas10

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Isolated Thermococcus onnurineus Cas10 generates the noncanonical ATP‐derived product AMP‐O‐Tris while in Tris‐containing buffer as identified via mass spectrometry, revealing relaxed nucleophile selectivity under isolated conditions. These findings suggest that multiprotein Csm complex assembly restricts Cas10 reactivity toward canonical cyclic ...

A Computational Binding Affinity Estimation Protocol with Maximum Utilization of Experimental Data : A Case Study for Adenosine Receptor

open access: yes, 2020
Estimating binding affinity between a target protein and the ligand is a crucial step in the drug discovery process. In computer aided drug design (CADD), the problem can be divided into two steps, finding the correct binding pose and estimating binding ...

Mechanical affinity as a new metrics to evaluate binding events

open access: yesReviews in Analytical Chemistry, 2013
Binding affinity is measured by dissociation constant, Kd, which uses concentration as units. The universal concentration units facilitate direct comparison of affinities for different binding events. However, Kd is a thermodynamic parameter, which lacks

Molecular dynamics simulations of positively selected codons in FcγRI reveal novel biochemical binding properties

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Evolutionary analysis across 32 placental mammals identified positive selection at residues H148 and W149 in the immune receptor FcγR1. Ancestral reconstruction combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveals how these mutations may influence receptor structure and dynamics, providing insight into the evolution of antibody recognition and immune ...

The cloning , expression and characterisation of bacterial chitin-binding proteins from pseudomonas aeruginosa , serratia marcescens, photorhabdus luminescens and photorhabdus asymbiotica. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
It is well recognised that most proteins are subject to post translational modifications and that these modifications can have specific effects on the biological properties and functions of these proteins.
