Pathological mutations differentially affect the self-assembly and polymerisation of the innate immune system signalling adaptor molecule MyD88

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2018
Background Higher-order self-assembly of proteins, or “prion-like” polymerisation, is now emerging as a simple and robust mechanism for signal amplification, in particular within the innate immune system, where the recognition of pathogens or danger ...

Single-Molecule enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay detects serum proteins at subfemtomolar concentrations

open access: yesNature Biotechnology, 2010
The ability to detect single protein molecules in blood could accelerate the discovery and use of more sensitive diagnostic biomarkers. To detect low-abundance proteins in blood, we captured them on microscopic beads decorated with specific antibodies ...

Carbon nanotube sensor for vibrating molecules

open access: yes, 2013
The transport properties of a CNT capacitively coupled to a molecule vibrating along one of its librational modes are studied and its transport properties analyzed in the presence of an STM tip.

The apo LETM1 F‐EF‐hand adopts a closed conformation that underlies a multi‐modal sensory role in mitochondria

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present the first solution structure of the Ca2+‐depleted LETM1 F‐EF‐hand through a D676A/N678A Ca2+ binding‐deficient mutant, revealing a closed hydrophobic cleft caused by a unique F1‐helix pivot. The apo LETM1 F‐EF‐hand exhibits regiospecific hot and cold unfolding, sensitivity to physiological pH changes and potential for promiscuous heterotypic

Arrangement of DOBAMBC molecules inside the capsule on change of the molecule's inclination on the border of the capsule investigated by the molecular dynamics method [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2012
The method of molecular dynamics is used to investigate the distribution of DOBAMBC molecules in a capsule with the fixed border layer. Change of an arrangement of molecules in smectic layers depending on an inclination of molecules on border is considered.

Duplex DNA engagement and RPA oppositely regulate the DNA-unwinding rate of CMG helicase

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
During eukaryotic chromosome replication cells utilize ring-shaped CMG helicase that separates the two strands of the DNA double helix. Here the authors reveal that CMG helicase activity is inhibited by duplex DNA engagement at the fork, which is ...

Insertion of the FeB cofactor in cNORs lacking metal inserting chaperones

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nitric oxide reductase is an enzyme found in the bacterial denitrification pathway. The NOR active site contains a non‐heme iron, often, but not always inserted with the assistance of chaperones. Here, we study the insertion of FeB in the subfamily of cNORs lacking chaperones and found a putative channel, conserved in the family, perhaps enabling the ...
