Multiple binding sites for transcriptional repressors can produce regular bursting and enhance noise suppression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Cells may control fluctuations in protein levels by means of negative autoregulation, where transcription factors bind DNA sites to repress their own production.

Galactoside-Binding Site in LacY [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemistry, 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.

De novo prediction of PTBP1 binding and splicing targets reveals unexpected features of its RNA recognition and function. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The splicing regulator Polypyrimidine Tract Binding Protein (PTBP1) has four RNA binding domains that each binds a short pyrimidine element, allowing recognition of diverse pyrimidine-rich sequences.

Computing the protein binding sites [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2011
Identifying the location of binding sites on proteins is of fundamental importance for a wide range of applications including molecular docking, de novo drug design, structure identification and comparison of functional sites. Structural genomic projects are beginning to produce protein structures with unknown functions.

cAMP activates adenylate and guanylate cyclase of Dictyostelium discoideum cells by binding to different classes of cell-surface receptors. A study with extracellular Ca2+ [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
cAMP induces a transient increase of cAMP and cGMP levels in Dictyostelium discoideum cells. Fast binding experiments reveal three types of cAMP-binding site (S, H and L), which have different off-rates (t0.5, 0.7-15 s) and different affinities (Kd, 15 ...

Quantitative analysis of uptake of free fatty acid by mammalian cells: lauric acid and human erythrocytes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1972
Quantitative aspects of the binding of free fatty acid to human erythrocytes were studied by measuring the distribution of various amounts of [1-14C]lauric acid between washed human erythrocytes and defatted human plasma albumin. Incubations were done at

Diversity of molecular targets and signaling pathways for CBD

open access: yesPharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2020
Cannabidiol (CBD) is the second most abundant component of the Cannabis plant and is known to have effects distinct from Δ9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Many studies that examined the behavioral effects of CBD concluded that it lacks the psychotomimetic ...

Identification of hACE2-interacting sites in SARS-CoV-2 spike receptor binding domain for antiviral drugs screening

open access: yesVirus Research, 2022
The key structure of the interface between the spike protein of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) acts as an essential switch for cell entry by the virus and drugs targets ...
