Pyramidalization of the Glycosidic Nitrogen Provides the Way for Efficient Cleavage of the N‑Glycosidic Bond of 8‑OxoG with the hOGG1 DNA Repair Protein [PDF]
A mechanistic pathway for cleavage of the N-glycosidic bond of 8-oxo-2′-deoxyguanosine (oxoG) catalyzed with the human 8-oxoguanine glycosylase 1 DNA repair protein (hOGG1) is proposed in this theoretical study. The reaction scheme suggests direct proton

Picky Hsp90-Every Game with Another Mate [PDF]
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Sahasrabudhe et al. (2017) present a dramatically renovated functional cycle for the molecular chaperone Hsp90, which stimulates re-thinking of the mechanism of this vital protein folding ...

Toward a Model for Activation of Orai Channel
Summary: Store-operated calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) channels mediate a variety of cellular signaling functions. The CRAC channel pore-forming protein, Orai1, is a hexamer arranged with 3-fold symmetry.

Agonist-induced rises in cytosolic Ca2+ control most platelet responses in thrombosis and hemostasis. In human platelets, we earlier demonstrated that the ORAI1-STIM1 pathway is a major component of extracellular Ca2+ entry, in particular when induced via the ITAM-linked collagen receptor, glycoprotein VI (GPVI).

Orai1 Expression and Vascular Function in Kidney Donors Determine Graft Outcomes at Short/Mid-Term
We aimed to determine the influence of donors’ vascular function on renal function in recipients and to evaluate the role of Orai1 calcium channels as a potential marker. A prospective collaborative multicenter study was designed.
