Exploring kinase DFG loop conformational stability with AlphaFold2-RAVE [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Kinases compose one of the largest fractions of the human proteome, and their misfunction is implicated in many diseases, in particular cancers. The ubiquitousness and structural similarities of kinases makes specific and effective drug design difficult. In particular, conformational variability due to the evolutionarily conserved DFG motif adopting in

Accuracy of position determination in Ca$^{2+}$ signaling [PDF]
, 2019 A living cell senses its environment and responds to external signals. In this work, we study theoretically, the precision at which cells can determine the position of a spatially localized transient extracellular signal. To this end, we focus on the case, where the stimulus is converted into the release of a small molecule that acts as a second ...

Empowering AlphaFold2 for protein conformation selective drug discovery with AlphaFold2-RAVE [PDF]
Small molecule drug design hinges on obtaining co-crystallized ligand-protein structures. Despite AlphaFold2's strides in protein native structure prediction, its focus on apo structures overlooks ligands and associated holo structures. Moreover, designing selective drugs often benefits from the targeting of diverse metastable conformations. Therefore,

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study reveals that cytoplasmic PABPN1 is essential for mouse oocyte meiotic maturation by coordinating polyadenylation, translation, and degradation of maternal mRNAs. Pabpn1 knockout disrupts CDK1 activation, spindle formation, and chromosome alignment by impairing maturation‐promoting factor (MPF) regulation and BTG4‐mediated deadenylation ...
