Identification of Eukaryotic Parvulin Homologues: A New Subfamily of Peptidylprolyl cis–trans Isomerases

open access: greenBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1999
We report here the existence of a subfamily of eukaryotic parvulin proteins that have strong sequence homology with E. coli parvulin, but lack the WW domain found in previously described eukarytoic parvulins. We hence term members of this subfamily EPVH (eukaryotic parvulin homologue).

Resolving the functions of peptidylprolyl isomerases: insights from the mutagenesis of the nuclear FKBP25 enzyme [PDF]

open access: bronzeBiochemical Society Transactions, 2013
Peptidylprolyl isomerases have been implicated in chromatin regulation through their association with histones, chromatin-modifying enzymes and DNA-binding transcription factors. As with other post-translational modifications to proteins, a mechanistic understanding of the regulation of biological processes is fostered by loss-of-function studies both ...

Host Cell Peptidylprolyl cis-trans Isomerases as Immune Modulators of HIV-1 Infection [PDF]

open access: green, 2020
Since the 1980s, the human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) has been acknowledged as the trigger for AIDS, the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Every year, worldwide approximately 700,000 people die from late effects of HIV-1 infection and AIDS (UNAIDS, 2018).

Interplay between acute Type A aortic dissection and pan-cancer: Clinical evidence, bioinformatics, and experimental validation [PDF]

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Acute Type A Aortic Dissection (ATAAD) and cancer represent major global health burdens, yet shared mechanisms remain elusive. Epidemiological analyses linked ATAAD to increased risks of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and head and neck squamous cell

Cyclosporin A, the cyclophilin class of peptidylprolyl isomerases, and blockade of T cell signal transduction.

open access: hybridJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1992
Cyclosporin A, the major immunosuppressive drug in transplantation, and the more potent therapeutic drug candidate, FK506, have led to the discovery of two superfamilies of immunosuppressant binding proteins, the cyclophilins and the FK binding proteins.

Discovery and Characterization of a Nonphosphorylated Cyclic Peptide Inhibitor of the Peptidylprolyl Isomerase, Pin1

open access: greenJournal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2011
Phage panning led to the discovery of a disulfide-cyclized peptide CRYPEVEIC that inhibits Pin1 activity with a K(I) of 0.5 μM. NMR chemical shift perturbation experiments show that cyclic CRYPEVEIC binds to the active site of Pin1. Pin1 residues K63 and R68, which bind the phosphate of substrate peptides, do not show a significant chemical shift ...
