Conformational selection in protein binding and function

open access: yes, 2014
Protein binding and function often involves conformational changes. Advanced NMR experiments indicate that these conformational changes can occur in the absence of ligand molecules (or with bound ligands), and that the ligands may 'select' protein ...

Harnessing S. cerevisiae to advance the engineering of pentatricopeptide repeat proteins

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Heterologous expression systems have been instrumental in furthering our understanding of plant RNA editing proteins. In this commentary, we discuss how the establishment of yeast as a model for studying plant RNA editing by Ramanathan et al. could advance the engineering of pentatricopeptide repeat proteins, and how in return pentatricopeptide repeat ...

Engineered Derivatives of Maltose-Binding Protein

open access: yes, 2012
Maltose-binding protein (MBP), a member of the periplasmic binding protein family of Gram negative bacteria, is a versatile substrate for protein engineering. In common with other periplasmic proteins, it is extremely protease resistant, and it can fold properly in both the cytoplasmic and periplasmic compartments.

A Thioredoxin Domain-Containing Protein Interacts with Pepino mosaic virus Triple Gene Block Protein 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV) is a mechanically-transmitted tomato pathogen of importance worldwide. Interactions between the PepMV coat protein and triple gene block protein (TGBp1) with the host heat shock cognate protein 70 and catalase 1 (CAT1 ...

H2‐dependent modulation of tetrahydromethanopterin S‐methyltransferase (Mtr complex) activity by the small protein MtrR in Methanosarcina mazei

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Small protein MtrR is a regulator of the Mtr methyltransferase complex in Methanosarcina mazei. It binds specifically to the MtrA subunit and modulates Mtr activity in response to hydrogen (H2) availability. Deleting mtrR impairs growth in the presence but not absence of H2, indicating its role in directing methyl transfer toward an energy‐conserving ...

A signaling pathway mediating abscisic acid‐induced jasmonic acid biosynthesis during strawberry ripening

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
During strawberry ripening, abscisic acid signaling activates SnRK2.6, which phosphorylates and degrades the JAZ12 repressor. This releases the MYC2 transcription factor, directly activating jasmonic acid biosynthesis genes. The resulting jasmonic acid accumulation drives aroma production, thereby coupling ripening with scent formation through this ...

GeARF5/GeIAA33‐GeSWEET14 module balances the secondary metabolic biosynthesis to increase the yield and quality in Gastrodia elata

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Auxin signaling regulates the formation of vegetative propagation corms in Gastrodia elata by regulating sugar‐acid interconversion, which in turn regulates polysaccharide and starch biosynthesis as well as biosynthesis of the bioactive metabolite gastrodin.

Maltose-binding protein from the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima: stability and binding properties

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Biology, 2000
Recombinant maltose-binding protein from Thermotoga maritima (TmMBP) was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity, applying heat incubation of the crude extract at 75 degrees C. As taken from the spectral, physicochemical and binding properties, the recombinant protein is indistinguishable from the natural protein isolated from the ...
