Oligomerization of daptomycin on membranes [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2011
Daptomycin is a lipopeptide antibiotic that kills Gram-positive bacteria by membrane depolarization. While it has long been assumed that the mode of action of daptomycin involves the formation of membrane-associated oligomers, this has so far not been experimentally demonstrated.

What are oligomerization domains good for?

open access: yes, 2000
Collagen triple helices, coiled coils and other oligomerization domains mediate the subunit assembly of a large number of proteins. Oligomerization leads to functional advantages of multivalency and high binding strength, increased structure ...

First Principles Analysis of Ethylene Oligomerization on Single-site Ga3+ Catalysts Supported on Amorphous Silica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Amorphous, single site, silica-supported main group metal catalysts have recently been found to promote olefin oligomerization with high activity at moderate temperatures and pressures (~250°C and 1 atm).

Oligomerization-Enhanced Receptor–Ligand Binding Revealed by Dual-Color Simultaneous Tracking on Living Cell Membranes

open access: yes, 2021
GPCR oligomerization plays a critical role in cellular signaling, yet the stoichiometry of the interactions between oligomers and binding ligands in living cells remains a longstanding challenge.

The Catalytic Domain Mediates Homomultimerization of MT1-MMP and the Prodomain Interferes with MT1-MMP Oligomeric Complex Assembly

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Homomultimerization of MT1-MMP (membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase) through the hemopexin, transmembrane, and cytoplasmic domains plays a very important role in the activation of proMMP-2 and the degradation of pericellular collagen.

GPCR-OKB: the G protein coupled receptor oligomer knowledge base [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Rapid expansion of available data about G Protein Coupled Receptor (GPCR) dimers/oligomers over the past few years requires an effective system to organize this information electronically.

Cosolute modulation of protein oligomerization reactions in the homeostatic timescale

open access: yes, 2021
Protein oligomerization processes are widespread and of crucial importance to understand degenerative diseases and healthy regulatory pathways. One particular case is the homo-oligomerization of folded domains involving domain swapping, often found as a ...

Molecular Perspectives for mu/delta Opioid Receptor Heteromers as Distinct, Functional Receptors

open access: yesCells, 2014
Opioid receptors are the sites of action for morphine and the other opioid drugs. Abundant evidence now demonstrates that different opioid receptor types can physically associate to form heteromers.

Molecular and Kinetic Models for Pore Formation of Bacillus thuringiensis Cry Toxin

open access: yesToxins, 2022
Cry proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) and other bacteria are pesticidal pore-forming toxins. Since 2010, when the ABC transporter C2 (ABCC2) was identified as a Cry1Ac protein resistant gene, our understanding of the mode of action of Cry protein

Targeting the oligomerization of BCR/ABL by membrane permeable competitive peptides inhibits the proliferation of Philadelphia Chromosome positive leukemic cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The BCR/ABL fusion protein is the hallmark of Philadelphia Chromosome positive (Ph+) leukemia. The constitutive activation of the ABL-kinase in BCR/ABL cells induces the leukemic phenotype.
