Plague is a zoonotic disease that is caused by Yersinia pestis. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) that bind to the V-antigen, a virulence factor that is produced by Y. pestis, can passively protect mice from plague. An analysis of protective mAbs that bind to

Metal-ion binding and metal-ion induced folding of the adenine-sensing riboswitch aptamer domain [PDF]
Divalent cations are important in the folding and stabilization of complex RNA structures. The adenine-sensing riboswitch controls the expression of mRNAs for proteins involved in purine metabolism by directly sensing intracellular adenine levels ...

Prediction of Metal Ion Binding Sites in Proteins from Amino Acid Sequences by Using Simplified Amino Acid Alphabets and Random Forest Model [PDF]
Metal binding proteins or metallo-proteins are important for the stability of the protein and also serve as co-factors in various functions like controlling metabolism, regulating signal transport, and metal homeostasis.

Use of top-down and bottom-up fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry for mapping calmodulin sites modified by platinum anticancer drugs [PDF]
Calmodulin (CaM) is a highly conserved, ubiquitous, calcium-binding protein; it binds to and regulates many different protein targets, thereby functioning as a calcium sensor and signal transducer.

The clinically widely-used anticancer drug, cisplatin, binds strongly to DNA as a DNA-damaging agent. Herein, we investigated the interaction of cisplatin with a 15-mer single-stranded C,T-rich oligodeoxynucleotide, 5′-CCTT4CTT7G8C9T10TCTCC-3′

A client‐binding site of Cdc37 [PDF]
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.

BindingScanner: a tool for predicting binding sites of RNA-binding proteins in transcripts
BindingScanner is a tool for predicting binding sites of distinct regulators in an RNA sequence by calculating posterior probabilities with MotEvo, given the sequence specificity of regulators, represented as position-specific weight matrices.

Structural Dynamics of DPP-4 and Its Influence on the Projection of Bioactive Ligands
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) is a target to treat type II diabetes mellitus. Therefore, it is important to understand the structural aspects of this enzyme and its interaction with drug candidates.
