Discovery of an auto-regulation mechanism for the maltose ABC transporter MalFGK2. [PDF]
The maltose transporter MalFGK(2), together with the substrate-binding protein MalE, is one of the best-characterized ABC transporters. In the conventional model, MalE captures maltose in the periplasm and delivers the sugar to the transporter.

Programming xenon diffusion in maltose-binding protein. [PDF]
Protein interiors contain void space that can bind small gas molecules. Determination of gas pathways and kinetics in proteins has been an intriguing and challenging task. Here, we combined computational methods and the hyperpolarized xenon-129 chemical exchange saturation transfer (hyper-CEST) NMR technique to investigate xenon (Xe) exchange kinetics ...

Purity of maltose-binding protein – Recombinant streptavidin expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (pD861-MBP: 327892) [PDF]
Nearly 95% of streptavidin which is expressed in Escherichia coli found as an inclusion body. Protein expressed in an inclusion body form requires further steps for the folding process related to its purification.

Heterologous expression of mycobacterial Esx complexes in Escherichia coli for structural studies is facilitated by the use of maltose binding protein fusions. [PDF]
The expression of heteroligomeric protein complexes for structural studies often requires a special coexpression strategy. The reason is that the solubility and proper folding of each subunit of the complex requires physical association with other ...

A useful epitope tag derived from maltose binding protein. [PDF]
AbstractMaltose binding protein (MBP) is used in recombinant protein expression as an affinity and solubility tag. The monoclonal antibody B48 binds MBP tightly and has no cross‐reactivity to other proteins in an Escherichia coli lysate. This high level of specificity suggested that MBP contains an epitope that could prove useful as a purification and ...

The energetics of structural change in maltose-binding protein [PDF]
High-resolution structures of proteins and their complexes are now appearing in the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics (RCSB) database at a tremendous rate. When analyzing the structures of proteins, it is often tempting to try to extract energetic contributions to stability or binding interactions.

Exploration of multi-state conformational dynamics and underlying global functional landscape of maltose binding protein. [PDF]
An increasing number of biological machines have been revealed to have more than two macroscopic states. Quantifying the underlying multiple-basin functional landscape is essential for understanding their functions. However, the present models seem to be

Molecular analysis of cyclic α-maltosyl-(1→6)-maltose binding protein in the bacterial metabolic pathway. [PDF]
Cyclic α-maltosyl-(1→6)-maltose (CMM) is a cyclic glucotetrasaccharide with alternating α-1,4 and α-1,6 linkages. Here, we report functional and structural analyses on CMM-binding protein (CMMBP), which is a substrate-binding protein (SBP) of an ABC ...
