A role for non-covalent SUMO interaction motifs in Pc2/CBX4 E3 activity. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
Modification of proteins by the small ubiquitin like modifier (SUMO) is an essential process in mammalian cells. SUMO is covalently attached to lysines in target proteins via an enzymatic cascade which consists of E1 and E2, SUMO activating and ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

The mechanism of pectin in improving anthocyanin stability and the application progress of their complexes: A review

Food Chemistry: X
Improving anthocyanin stability is a major challenge for the food industry. Studies have revealed that the interaction with pectin through non-covalent bonds can improve the anthocyanin stability, thus showing the potential to alleviate the above ...

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

β‐TrCP overexpression enhances cisplatin sensitivity by depleting BRCA1

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Low levels of β‐TrCP (Panel A) allow the accumulation of BRCA1 and CtIP, which facilitate the repair of cisplatin‐induced DNA damage via homologous recombination (HR) and promote tumor cell survival. In contrast, high β‐TrCP expression (Panel B) leads to BRCA1 and CtIP degradation, impairing HR repair, resulting in persistent DNA damage and apoptosis ...

Malonaldehyde-like Systems: BeF₂ Clusters—A Subtle Balance between Hydrogen Bonds, Beryllium Bonds, and Resonance

Sci, 2022
The stability of malonaldehyde is governed by intramolecular hydrogen bonds (IMHBs) as well as in malonaldehyde-like systems where oxygen is replaced by N or S at any of the basic sites.

The surface site interaction point approach to non-covalent interactions

Chemical Society Reviews, 2022
Non-covalent interactions are described using the SSIPs. Simple rules of thumb for predicting binding constants for any functional group interaction in any solvent are described, as well as general treatments of molecular properties like partition.

YAP1::TFE3 mediates endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal plasticity in epithelioid hemangioendothelioma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The YAP1::TFE3 fusion protein drives endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndMT) plasticity, resulting in the loss of endothelial characteristics and gain of mesenchymal‐like properties, including resistance to anoikis, increased migratory capacity, and loss of contact growth inhibition in endothelial cells.

Binding of Bezafibrate to Human Serum Albumin: Insight into the Non-Covalent Interaction of an Emerging Contaminant with Biomacromolecules

Molecules, 2012
In recent years, bezafibrate (BZF) has been frequently detected in environmental media. In order to reveal the toxicity of such an emerging pollutant, its interaction with human serum albumin (HSA) was studied by fluorescence spectrometry, circular ...

Synthesis of multimetallic dendrimers through non-covalent interactions [PDF]

Dalton Trans., 2012
Hexa-ammonium functionalized Dendriphos ligands and mono-sulfonate functionalized metal complexes have been used as building blocks for the preparation of multimetallic dendritic assemblies. These metallodendrimers consist of a single metal centre surrounded by an oligocationic shell formed by the coordinated Dendriphos ligands and multiple associated ...
