The importance of the dimer interface in the folding and assembly of procaspase-3.

, 2009
Caspases are a family of cysteine proteases that are intimately involved in apoptosis and exist in the cell as inactive zymogens prior to activation. Initiator procaspases are monomers that must dimerize for activation.

Cu‐Pd Dual Single Atoms Promoting Selective CO2 Photoreduction to C2 Products in Seawater

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Cu and Pd dual single atoms anchored on TiO2 cooperatively enhance C─C coupling during CO2 photoreduction in seawater. Under xenon‐light irradiation and without a sacrificial reagent/alkaline trapping agent, the catalyst achieves highly selective acetic acid formation.

Two Cysteines in Raf Kinase Inhibitor Protein Make Differential Contributions to Structural Dynamics In Vitro

Molecules
As a scaffolding protein, Raf kinase binding protein (RKIP) is involved in a variety of cellular pathways, including the Raf–MEK–ERK-cascade. It acts as a negative regulator by binding to its partners, making it an attractive target in the development of

Redox sensitivity of the dimerization of occludin

, 2009
Occludin is a self-associating transmembrane tight junction protein affected in oxidative stress. However, its function is unknown. The cytosolic C-terminal tail contains a coiled coil-domain forming dimers contributing to the self- association. Studying

PhoU homologs from Staphylococcus aureus dimerization and protein interactions

Microbiology Spectrum
PhoU proteins are negative regulators of the phosphate response, regulate virulence, and contribute to antibiotic resistance. Staphylococcus aureus has multiple genes encoding PhoU homologs that regulate persister formation and potentially virulence, but
