Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022 Identification of protein–ligand binding sites plays a critical role in drug discovery. However, there is still a lack of targeted drug prediction for DNA-binding proteins. This study aims at the binding sites of DNA-binding proteins and drugs, by mining

Pneumococcal vaccination responses in adults with subnormal IgG subclass concentrations
BMC Immunology, 2019 Background We sought to compare Pneumovax®23 responses in adults with subnormal IgG subclass concentrations. We studied adults with normal total IgG, frequent/severe respiratory infection, and subnormal IgG1, IgG3, or IgG1 + IgG3 before and after ...

Residues in the 1st Transmembrane-Spanning Helix Are Important for GABAAρ Receptor Function
Biomolecules, 2022 GABAAρ receptors are a subfamily of the GABAA receptor family of pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (pLGICs). Each subunit has a common structure, including a transmembrane domain of four α-helices (M1–M4).

Galactoside-Binding Site in LacY [PDF]
Biochemistry, 2014 Although an X-ray crystal structure of lactose permease (LacY) has been presented with bound galactopyranoside, neither the sugar nor the residues ligating the sugar can be identified with precision at ~3.5 Å. Therefore, additional evidence is important for identifying side chains likely to be involved in binding.

Targets for the MalI repressor at the divergent Escherichia coliK-12malX-malI promoters [PDF]
, 2010 Random mutagenesis has been used to identify the target DNA sites for the MalI repressor at the divergent Escherichia coli K-12 malX-malI promoters. The malX promoter is repressed by MalI binding to a DNA site located from position -24 to position -9 ...
