Protein degradation induced by PROTAC molecules as an emerging drug discovery strategy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2022
The traditional concept of drug discovery is based on the occupancy driven pharmacology model. It implies the development of inhibitors occupying binding sites that directly affect protein functions.

Filament compliance influences cooperative activation of thin filaments and the dynamics of force production in skeletal muscle. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2012
Striated muscle contraction is a highly cooperative process initiated by Ca²⁺ binding to the troponin complex, which leads to tropomyosin movement and myosin cross-bridge (XB) formation along thin filaments. Experimental and computational studies suggest

Modeling the role of negative cooperativity in metabolic regulation and homeostasis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
A significant proportion of enzymes display cooperativity in binding ligand molecules, and such effects have an important impact on metabolic regulation. This is easiest to understand in the case of positive cooperativity.

Characterization of the p53 cistrome--DNA binding cooperativity dissects p53's tumor suppressor functions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2013
p53 protects us from cancer by transcriptionally regulating tumor suppressive programs designed to either prevent the development or clonal expansion of malignant cells.

Allosteric activation of preformed EGF receptor dimers by a single ligand binding event

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Aberrant activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) by mutations has been implicated in a variety of human cancers. Elucidation of the structure of the full-length receptor is essential to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying its

Mechanistic insights into transcription factor cooperativity and its impact on protein-phenotype interactions

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Although transcription factor (TF) cooperativity is widespread, a global mechanistic understanding of the role of TF cooperativity is still lacking. Here the authors introduce a statistical learning framework that provides structural insight into TF ...

Physiological Role of Glutamate Dehydrogenase in Cancer Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
NH4+ increased growth rates and final densities of several human metastatic cancer cells. To assess whether glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) in cancer cells may catalyze the reverse reaction of NH4+ fixation, its covalent regulation and kinetic parameters ...

Conditional Cooperativity in DNA Minor-Groove Recognition by Oligopeptides

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
The recognition of specific DNA sequences in processes such as transcription is associated with a cooperative binding of proteins. Some transcription regulation mechanisms involve additional proteins that can influence the binding cooperativity by acting
