The Streptomyces coelicolor small ORF trpM stimulates growth and morphological development and exerts opposite effects on actinorhodin and calcium-dependent antibiotic production [PDF]
, 2020 In actinomycetes, antibiotic production is often associated with a morpho-physiological differentiation program that is regulated by complex molecular and metabolic networks. Many aspects of these regulatory circuits have been already elucidated and many

Curcumin affects HSP60 folding activity and levels in neuroblastoma cells [PDF]
, 2020 The fundamental challenge in fighting cancer is the development of protective agents able to interfere with the classical pathways of malignant transformation, such as extracellular matrix remodeling, epithelial\u2013mesenchymal transition and ...

A monoclonal antibody toolkit for C. elegans. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Antibodies are critical tools in many avenues of biological research. Though antibodies can be produced in the research laboratory setting, most research labs working with vertebrates avail themselves of the wide array of commercially available reagents.

Deletion of heat shock protein 60 in adult mouse cardiomyocytes perturbs mitochondrial protein homeostasis and causes heart failure. [PDF]
, 2020 To maintain healthy mitochondrial enzyme content and function, mitochondria possess a complex protein quality control system, which is composed of different endogenous sets of chaperones and proteases.

Production of a recombinant form of early pregnancy factor that can prolong allogeneic skin graft survival time in rats [PDF]
, 2000 Early pregnancy factor (EPF), an extracellular chaperonin 10 homologue, has immunosuppressive and growth factor properties. In order to carry out more extensive studies on the in vivo characteristics of EPF, a recombinant form of the molecule has been ...

Metal ions modulate the plastic nature of Mycobacterium tuberculosis chaperonin-10 [PDF]
Protein Engineering, Design and Selection, 2001 Chaperonin-10s possess a highly flexible segment of approximately 10 residues that covers their dome-like structure and closes the central cavity of the chaperonin assembly. The dome loop is believed to contribute to the plasticity of their oligomeric structure. We have exploited the presence of a single tryptophan residue occurring in the dome loop of

The effect of nucleotides and mitochondrial chaperonin 10 on the structure and chaperone activity of mitochondrial chaperonin 60 [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 2001 Mitochondrial chaperonins are necessary for the folding of newly imported and stress‐denatured mitochondrial proteins. The goal of this study was to investigate the structure and function of the mammalian mitochondrial chaperonin system. We present evidence that the 60 kDa chaperonin (mt‐cpn60) exists in solution in dynamic equilibrium between monomers,

Capturing the essence of folding and functions of biomolecules using Coarse-Grained Models
, 2011 The distances over which biological molecules and their complexes can function range from a few nanometres, in the case of folded structures, to millimetres, for example during chromosome organization. Describing phenomena that cover such diverse length,
