Adaptive evolution of transcription factor binding sites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The regulation of a gene depends on the binding of transcription factors to specific sites located in the regulatory region of the gene. The generation of these binding sites and of cooperativity between them are essential building blocks in the ...

The metal binding site of zoocin A [PDF]

open access: yesJBIC Journal of Biological Inorganic Chemistry, 2008
Direct metal analysis of the bacteriolytic exoenzyme zoocin A failed to unequivocally identify a putative metal cofactor; hence, indirect experiments utilizing NMR were undertaken to settle this question. Cd(2+) as a surrogate metal ion was reconstituted into EDTA-treated, metal-free recombinant zoocin, and (113)Cd-NMR was employed to explore binding ...

Promiscuity of the Euonymus Carbohydrate-Binding Domain

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2012
Plants synthesize small amounts of carbohydrate-binding proteins on exposure to stress. For example, on exposure to drought, high salt, wounding and by treatment with some plant hormones or by pathogen attack. In contrast to the ‘classical’ plant lectins

Structural basis of control of inward rectifier Kir2 channel gating by bulk anionic phospholipids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Inward rectifier potassium (Kir) channel activity is controlled by plasma membrane lipids. Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)) binding to a primary site is required for opening of classic inward rectifier Kir2.1 and Kir2.2 channels, but ...

The clinical utility of serum free light chain and heavy/light chain assays in monitoring disease activity in patients with IgG myeloma after achieving a deep response

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2018
Key Clinical Message Heavy/light chain (HLC) assay will enable us to evaluate the changes in the concentrations of iHLC and uHLC separately and to better identify whether the change observed is clonal or reactive.

A client‐binding site of Cdc37 [PDF]

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, 2005
The molecular chaperone Hsp90 is distinct from Hsp70 and chaperonin in that client proteins are apparently restricted to a subset of proteins categorized as cellular signaling molecules. Among these, many specific protein kinases require the assistance of Hsp90 and its co‐chaperone Cdc37/p50 for their biogenesis.

Evaluation of a novel virtual screening strategy using receptor decoy binding sites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Virtual screening is used in biomedical research to predict the binding affinity of a large set of small organic molecules to protein receptor targets.

Mutational analysis of human profilin I reveals a second PI(4,5)-P2 binding site neighbouring the poly(L-proline) binding site [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Background: Profilin is a small cytoskeletal protein which interacts with actin, proline-rich proteins and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)-P-2).

Spatial Layouts of Low‐Entropy Hydration Shells Guide Protein Binding

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, 2023
Protein–protein binding enables orderly biological self‐organization and is therefore considered a miracle of nature. Protein‒protein binding is driven by electrostatic forces, hydrogen bonding, van der Waals force, and hydrophobic interactions.

Endogenous monoclonal immunoglobulins analyzed using the EXENT® solution and LC-MS

open access: yesJournal of Mass Spectrometry and Advances in the Clinical Lab
Introduction: The EXENT® Solution, a fully automated system, is a recent advancement for identifying and quantifying monoclonal immunoglobulins in serum. It combines immunoprecipitation with MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.
