SecM-stalled ribosomes adopt an altered geometry at the peptidyl transferase center [PDF]
As nascent polypeptide chains are synthesized, they pass through a tunnel in the large ribosomal subunit. Interaction between specific nascent chains and the ribosomal tunnel is used to induce translational stalling for the regulation of gene expression.

Abstract Porphyromonas gingivalis, a pathogen of chronic periodontitis, is an asaccharolytic microorganism that solely utilizes nutritional amino acids as its energy source and cellular constituents. The bacterium is considered to incorporate proteinaceous nutrients mainly as dipeptides, thus exopeptidases that produce dipeptides from polypeptides are ...

Loss of secretory pathway FK506-binding proteins results in cold-sensitive lethality in caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
The FK506-binding proteins (FKBs) represent ubiquitous enzymes that catalyse the rate-limiting peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerization step in protein folding. The nematode <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> has eight FKBs, three of which (FKB-3, -

Lysis of a Lactococcus lactis dipeptidase mutant and rescue by mutation in the pleiotropic regulator cody [PDF]
Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris MG1363 is a model for the lactic acid bacteria (LAB) used in the dairy industry. The proteolytic system, consisting of a proteinase, several peptide and amino acid uptake systems, and a host of intracellular peptidases,

Peptidyl-prolyl isomerases : A full cast of critical actors in cardiovascular diseases [PDF]
Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans-isomerases are a highly conserved family of immunophilins. The three peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans-isomerase subfamilies are cyclophilins, FK-506-binding proteins, and parvulins. Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans-isomerases are expressed in
