Essential role of the C-terminal helical domain in active site formation of selenoprotein MsrA from Clostridium oremlandii. [PDF]
We previously determined the crystal structures of 1-Cys type selenoprotein MsrA from Clostridium oremlandii (CoMsrA). The overall structure of CoMsrA is unusual, consisting of two domains, the N-terminal catalytic domain and the C-terminal distinct ...

Catalytic Domain Architecture of Metzincin Metalloproteases [PDF]
Metalloproteases cleave proteins and peptides, and deregulation of their function leads to pathology. An understanding of their structure and mechanisms of action is necessary to the development of strategies for their regulation. Among metallopeptidases are the metzincins, which are mostly multidomain proteins with approximately 130-260-residue ...

A novel protein kinase-like domain in a selenoprotein, widespread in the tree of life. [PDF]
Selenoproteins serve important functions in many organisms, usually providing essential oxidoreductase enzymatic activity, often for defense against toxic xenobiotic substances.

The chitinase C gene PsChiC from Pseudomonas sp. and its synergistic effects on larvicidal activity
Pseudomonas sp. strain TXG6-1, a chitinolytic gram-negative bacterium, was isolated from a vegetable field in Taixing city, Jiangsu Province, China. In this study, a Pseudomonas chitinase C gene (PsChiC) was isolated from the chromosomal DNA of this ...

High-resolution NMR studies of structure and dynamics of human ERp27 indicate extensive interdomain flexibility [PDF]
ERp27 (endoplasmic reticulum protein 27.7 kDa) is a homologue of PDI (protein disulfide-isomerase) localized to the endoplasmic reticulum. ERp27 is predicted to consist of two thioredoxin-fold domains homologous with the non-catalytic b and b' domains of

CATALYTIC PROPERTIES OF THE EUKARYOTIC EXOSOME [PDF]
The eukaryotic exosome complex is built around the backbone of a 9‑subunit ring similar to phosporolytic ribonucleases such as RNase PH and polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase).

Crystal Structure of Human Nocturnin Catalytic Domain [PDF]
Abstract Nocturnin (NOCT) helps the circadian clock to adjust metabolism according to day and night activity. NOCT is upregulated in early evening and it has been proposed that NOCT serves as a deadenylase for metabolic enzyme mRNAs. We present a 2.7-Å crystal structure of the catalytic domain of human NOCT.
