Thermodynamics of the ATPase Cycle of GlcV, the Nucleotide-Binding Domain of the Glucose ABC Transporter of Sulfolobus solfataricus [PDF]
, 2006 ATP-binding cassette transporters drive the transport of substrates across the membrane by the hydrolysis of ATP. They typically have a conserved domain structure with two membrane-spanning domains that form the transport channel and two cytosolic ...

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

A Catalytic Domain of Eukaryotic DNA Topoisomerase I [PDF]
Journal 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 ...

Cyclic di-GMP mediates a histidine kinase/phosphatase switch by noncovalent domain cross-linking [PDF]
, 2016 Histidine kinases are key components of regulatory networks in bacteria. Although many of these enzymes are bifunctional, mediating both phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of downstream targets, the molecular details of this central regulatory switch ...

Polyhydroxyalkanoate synthase (PhaC): The key enzyme for biopolyester synthesis
Current Research in Biotechnology, 2022 Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are considered good candidates in replacing commercial petrochemical plastics in certain applications like single-use packaging since they are biodegradable, biocompatible and share similar properties with conventional ...

Mutational analysis of a ras catalytic domain. [PDF]
Molecular 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 ...

Phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 (PDK1)-independent activation of the protein kinase C substrate, protein kinase D [PDF]
, 2007 Phosphoinoisitide dependent kinase l (PDK1) is proposed to phosphorylate a key threonine residue within the catalytic domain of the protein kinase C (PKC) superfamily that controls the stability and catalytic competence of these kinases.

Autoantibodies against the catalytic domain of BRAF are not specific serum markers for rheumatoid arthritis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BACKGROUND: Autoantibodies to the catalytic domain of v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homologue B1 (BRAF) have been recently identified as a new family of autoantibodies involved in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Two Catalytic Domains Are Required for Protein Deacetylation [PDF]
Journal 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 ...
