Localization of the Catalytic Domain of Copepod Luciferases: Analysis of Truncated Mutants of the Metridia longa Luciferase [PDF]
Luciferases from copepods Metridia longa and Gaussia princeps are successfully used as bioluminescent reporters for in vivo and in vitro assays. Here, we report the minimal sequence of copepod luciferases required for bioluminescence activity that was ...

The Catalytic Domain Mediates Homomultimerization of MT1-MMP and the Prodomain Interferes with MT1-MMP Oligomeric Complex Assembly [PDF]
Homomultimerization of MT1-MMP (membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase) through the hemopexin, transmembrane, and cytoplasmic domains plays a very important role in the activation of proMMP-2 and the degradation of pericellular collagen.

Crystal structure of the catalytic domain of human RPTPH. [PDF]
Receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatases (RPTPs) receive extracellular stimuli and transfer them into cells. They regulate cell growth, differentiation and death via specific signals. They have also been implicated in cancer, diabetes and neurological diseases.

Effects of N-Terminal Non-catalytic Domains on Enzymatic Properties of the Alginate Lyase AlgL7 from Microbulbifer sp. ALW1 [PDF]
In order to clarify the effect of the non-catalytic carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) and F5/8 type C domains on the enzymatic properties of AlgL7, an alginate lyase from Microbulbifer sp. ALW1, the full-length enzyme AlgL7 and two truncated enzymes: CD1

Importance of the Domain−Domain Interface to the Catalytic Action of the NO Synthase Reductase Domain [PDF]
Calmodulin (CaM) activates NO synthase (NOS) by binding to a 20 amino acid interdomain hinge in the presence of Ca (2+), inducing electrons to be transferred from the FAD to the heme of the enzyme via a mobile FMN domain. The activation process is influenced by a number of structural features, including an autoinhibitory loop, the C-terminal tail of ...
