Crystal structure of the catalytic domain of HIV-1 restriction factor APOBEC3G in complex with ssDNA

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The human APOBEC3G protein is a cytidine deaminase that generates cytidine to deoxy-uridine mutations in single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), and capable of restricting replication of HIV-1 by generating mutations in viral genome. The mechanism by which APOBEC3G

Structural and Mechanistic Insights into the Catalytic-Domain-Mediated Short-Range Glycosylation Preferences of GalNAc-T4

open access: yesACS Central Science, 2018
Mucin-type O-glycosylation is initiated by a family of polypeptide GalNAc-transferases (GalNAc-Ts) which are type-II transmembrane proteins that contain Golgi luminal catalytic and lectin domains that are connected by a flexible linker. Several GalNAc-Ts,

Two Catalytic Domains Are Required for Protein Deacetylation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
Histone deacetylase (HDAC)-6 was recently identified as a dual substrate, possibly multisubstrate, deacetylase that can act both on acetylated histone tails and on alpha-tubulin acetylated on Lys40. HDAC-6 is unique among deacetylases in having two hdac domains, and we have used this enzyme as a useful model to dissect the structural requirements for ...

Structure- and context-based analysis of the GxGYxYP family reveals a new putative class of glycoside hydrolase. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundGut microbiome metagenomics has revealed many protein families and domains found largely or exclusively in that environment. Proteins containing the GxGYxYP domain are over-represented in the gut microbiota, and are found in Polysaccharide ...

Structural rearrangement of CaMKIIα catalytic domains encodes activation [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009
At its fundamental level, human memory is thought to occur at individual synaptic contact sites and manifest as persistent changes in synaptic efficacy. In digital electronics, the fundamental structure for implementing memory is the flip-flop switch, a circuit that can be triggered to flip between two stable states.

Controlling tetramer formation, subunit rotation and DNA ligation during Hin-catalyzed DNA inversion. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Two critical steps controlling serine recombinase activity are the remodeling of dimers into the chemically active synaptic tetramer and the regulation of subunit rotation during DNA exchange.

Chitinase Chit62J4 Essential for Chitin Processing by Human Microbiome Bacterium Clostridium paraputrificum J4

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Commensal bacterium Clostridium paraputrificum J4 produces several extracellular chitinolytic enzymes including a 62 kDa chitinase Chit62J4 active toward 4-nitrophenyl N,N′-diacetyl-β-d-chitobioside (pNGG).

A Catalytic Domain of Eukaryotic DNA Topoisomerase I [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1998
Eukaryotic type IB topoisomerases catalyze the cleavage and rejoining of DNA strands through a DNA-(3'-phosphotyrosyl)-enzyme intermediate. The 314-amino acid vaccinia topoisomerase is the smallest member of this family and is distinguished from its cellular counterparts by its specificity for cleavage at the target sequence 5'-CCCTT downward arrow ...

Mutational analysis of a ras catalytic domain. [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biology, 1986
We used linker insertion-deletion mutagenesis to study the catalytic domain of the Harvey murine sarcoma virus v-rasH transforming protein, which is closely related to the cellular rasH protein. The mutants displayed a wide range of in vitro biological activity, from those that induced focal transformation of NIH 3T3 cells with approximately the same ...

Biochemical and structural analysis of a site directed mutant of manganese dependent aminopeptidase P from Streptomyces lavendulae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2015
Aminopeptidase P (APP) removes N-terminal amino acids from peptides and proteins when the penultimate residue is proline. To understand the structure-function relationships of aminopeptidase P of Streptomyces lavendulae, a conserved arginine residue was ...
