Stereochemistry of Polypeptide Conformation in Coarse Grained Analysis

open access: yes, 2013
The conformations available to polypeptides are determined by the interatomic forces acting on the peptide units, whereby backbone torsion angles are restricted as described by the Ramachandran plot.

Arabidopsis thaliana dehydroascorbate reductase 2 : conformational flexibility during catalysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) catalyzes the glutathione (GSH)-dependent reduction of dehydroascorbate and plays a direct role in regenerating ascorbic acid, an essential plant antioxidant vital for defense against oxidative stress.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

In situ molecular organization and heterogeneity of the Legionella Dot/Icm T4SS

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present a nearly complete in situ model of the Legionella Dot/Icm type IV secretion system, revealing its central secretion channel and identifying new components. Using cryo‐electron tomography with AI‐based modeling, our work highlights the structure, variability, and mechanism of this complex nanomachine, advancing understanding of bacterial ...

On the Absolute Stereochemistry of Tolterodine: A Circular Dichroism Study

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2019
Tolterodine (1) is a potent muscarinic receptor antagonist used in the treatment of overactive urinary bladder (OAB) syndrome. Tolterodine is chiral and it was patented, and is currently marketed, as the l-tartrate salt of the (R)-enantiomer.

Dynamics and energetics of PCBP1 binding to severely oxidized RNA

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Oxidatively generated lesions such as 8-oxo-7, 8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) on RNA strands constitute a hallmark marker of the oxidative stress in the cell.

Conformational analysis of olefin-carbene ruthenium metathesis catalysts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We settle a long-standing disagreement of DFT with experiment (both solution and gas phase) for the phosphine dissociation process in Grubbs metathesis catalysis. Our findings with the M06 functional provide further support to gas-phase experimental work,

Atomic motions in the $\alpha\beta$-region of glass-forming polymers: Molecular versus Mode Coupling Theory approach

open access: yes, 2006
We present fully atomistic Molecular Dynamics simulation results on a main-chain polymer, 1,4-Polybutadiene, in the merging region of the $\alpha$- and $beta$-relaxations. A real space analysis reveals the occurrence of localized motions (``$\beta$-like''
