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

Spatial Layouts of Low‐Entropy Hydration Shells Guide Protein Binding
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.

Voronoi binding site models [PDF]
AbstractA frequently occurring problem in drug design and enzymology is that the binding constants for several compounds to the same site are known, but the geometry and energetic interactions of the site are not. This paper presents in detail a novel approach to the problem which accurately but compactly represents the allowed conformation space of ...

Evaluation of a novel virtual screening strategy using receptor decoy binding sites [PDF]
Virtual screening is used in biomedical research to predict the binding affinity of a large set of small organic molecules to protein receptor targets.

The evolution of SARS-CoV-2 could impair recognition of the virus by human antibody-mediated immunity. To facilitate prospective surveillance for such evolution, we map how convalescent serum antibodies are impacted by all mutations to the spike’s ...

Crystallographic studies of the Escherichia coli quinol-fumarate reductase with inhibitors bound to the quinol-binding site [PDF]
The quinol-fumarate reductase (QFR) respiratory complex of Escherichia coli is a four-subunit integral-membrane complex that catalyzes the final step of anaerobic respiration when fumarate is the terminal electron acceptor.
