Centriolar Protein C2cd3 Is Required for Craniofacial Development
The primary cilium is a ubiquitous, microtubule-based cellular organelle. Primary cilia dysfunction results in a group of disorders termed ciliopathies. C2 domain containing 3 centriole elongation regulator (C2cd3), encodes a centriolar protein essential

Electrostatic Control of the Membrane Targeting of C2 Domains [PDF]
Many proteins involved in signal transduction and vesicle trafficking contain C2 domains whose membrane association is often regulated by calcium. Here, finite-difference Poisson-Boltzmann calculations are used to describe the electrostatic interactions between C2 domains of known structure and phospholipid membranes.

At sites of vascular damage, factor VIII (fVIII) is proteolytically activated by thrombin and binds to activated platelet surfaces with activated factor IX (fIXa) to form the intrinsic “tenase” complex. Previous structural and mutational studies of fVIII

Superdiffusive motion of membrane-targeting C2 domains [PDF]
AbstractMembrane-targeting domains play crucial roles in the recruitment of signalling molecules to the plasma membrane. For most peripheral proteins, the protein-to-membrane interaction is transient. After proteins dissociate from the membrane they have been observed to rebind following brief excursions in the bulk solution.

Calculating the Potential of C2 Domains for Membrane Binding [PDF]
A recent report in Molecular Cell demonstrates the ability of electrostatic calculations to predict the membrane binding properties of structurally characterized C2 domains and assign probable membrane targeting functions to numerous uncharacterized C2 domains.

Membrane proteins are broadly classified as transmembrane (TM) or peripheral, with functions that pertain to only a single bilayer at a given time. Here, we explicate a class of proteins that contain both transmembrane and peripheral domains, which we ...

The PIP2 binding mode of the C2 domains of rabphilin‐3A [PDF]
AbstractPhosphatidylinositol‐4,5‐bisphosphate (PIP2) is a key player in the neurotransmitter release process. Rabphilin‐3A is a neuronal C2 domain tandem containing protein that is involved in this process. Both its C2 domains (C2A and C2B) are able to bind PIP2.
