Fine-Tuning Multiprotein Complexes Using Small Molecules [PDF]
Multiprotein complexes such as the transcriptional machinery, signaling hubs, and protein folding machines are typically composed of at least one enzyme combined with multiple non-enzymes. Often the components of these complexes are incorporated in a combinatorial manner, in which the ultimate composition of the system helps dictate the type, location,

Structure-function mapping of a heptameric module in the nuclear pore complex. [PDF]
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a multiprotein assembly that serves as the sole mediator of nucleocytoplasmic exchange in eukaryotic cells. In this paper, we use an integrative approach to determine the structure of an essential component of the yeast ...

Purifi cation of Multiprotein Histone Acetyltransferase Complexes [PDF]
The reversible acetylation of specific lysine residues on core histones regulates gene transcription in eukaryotes. Since the discovery of GCN5 as the first transcription-regulating histone acetyltransferase (HAT), a variety of HATs have now been identified and shown to acetylate different sites on histones as well as on non-histone proteins, including

Distinct and additive effects of calorie restriction and rapamycin in aging skeletal muscle
The anti-aging intervention calorie restriction (CR) is thought to act via the nutrient-sensing multiprotein complex mTORC1. Here the authors show that the mTORC1-inhibitor rapamycin and CR use largely distinct mechanisms to slow mouse muscle aging.

Over-expression of a chimeric gene of the transcriptional co-activator MBF1 fused to the EAR repressor motif causes developmental alteration in Arabidopsis and tomato [PDF]
Transcriptional co-activators of the Multiprotein Bridging Factor1 (MBF1) type belong to a multigenic family that encode key components of the machinery controlling gene expression by communicating between transcription factors and the basal ...

The eEF1 family of mammalian translation elongation factors
The eEF1 family of mammalian translation elongation factors is comprised of the two variants of eEF1A (eEF1A1 and eEF1A2), and the eEF1B complex. The latter consists of eEF1Bα, eEF1Bβ, and eEF1Bγ subunits.
