Calcium-Driven In Silico Inactivation of a Human Olfactory Receptor [PDF]
Conformational changes as well as molecular determinants related to the activation and inactivation of olfactory receptors are still poorly understood due to the intrinsic difficulties in the structural determination of this GPCR family. Here, we perform,

Further Insight into the Two Functions of Telomeres: Determining the Role of Tankyrase1 in Telomere Length Regulation and Tin2 in Telomere Protection [PDF]
Tankyrase1 is a multifunctional poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase that can localize to telomeres through its interaction with the shelterin component TRF1. Tankyrase1 poly(ADP-ribosyl)ates TRF1 in vitro, and its nuclear overexpression leads to loss of TRF1 and

Melanocortin-4 Receptor PLC Activation Is Modulated by an Interaction with the Monocarboxylate Transporter 8 [PDF]
The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) is a key player in the hypothalamic leptin-melanocortin pathway that regulates satiety and hunger. MC4R belongs to the G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), which are known to form heterodimers with other membrane ...
