The extracellular interactome of the human adenovirus family reveals diverse strategies for immunomodulation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Viruses interact with their hosts via secreted and membrane-bound proteins to affect host immune responses and virulence. Here the authors contribute to our understanding of this relationship with an extracellular interaction map of human and adenoviral ...

Entropy in protein folding and in protein—protein interactions

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 1997
The reduction of conformational entropy is a major barrier that has to be overcome in protein folding and binding. Changes in solvent entropy are also a major factor. Recent advances include clarification of the fundamental issues concerning the separation of entropy into components, the treatment of association entropy in binding, and the role of size

Protein [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Nutrition, 2011
Proteins are polymers of amino acids linked via α-peptide bonds. They can be represented as primary, secondary, tertiary, and even quaternary structures, but from a nutritional viewpoint only the primary (amino acid) sequence is of interest. Similarly, although there are many compounds in the body that can be chemically defined as amino acids, we are ...

Time-resolved spectroscopic and electrophysiological data reveal insights in the gating mechanism of anion channelrhodopsin

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Dreier et al. reports that the anion channelrhodopsin GtACR1 does not undergo a syn-cycle (light adapted ground state) and thus has a more efficient channel behaviour than CrChR2.

Cryo-EM demonstrates the in vitro proliferation of an ex vivo amyloid fibril morphology by seeding

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structure of in vitro amyloid fibrils from recombinant SAA1.1 protein that were formed by seeding with fibrils purified from systemic AA amyloidosis tissue.

Predicting Antibody Developability Profiles Through Early Stage Discovery Screening

open access: yesmAbs, 2020
Monoclonal antibodies play an increasingly important role for the development of new drugs across multiple therapy areas. The term ‘developability’ encompasses the feasibility of molecules to successfully progress from discovery to development via ...

Structure of cyanobacterial photosystem I complexed with ferredoxin at 1.97 Å resolution

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
In order to aid the understanding of the electron transfer process within the cyanobacterial photosystem I, its structure - when complexed with Ferredoxin - is determined at 1.97 Å resolution.

Galectins use N-glycans of FGFs to capture growth factors at the cell surface and fine-tune their signaling

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2023
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and their receptors (FGFRs) constitute complex signaling hubs that are crucial for the development and homeostasis of the human body.

Lasso-grafting of macrocyclic peptide pharmacophores yields multi-functional proteins

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
RaPID (Random non-standard Peptides Integrated Discovery) enables discovery of small macrocyclic peptides binding desired targets. Here, the authors propose lasso-grafting: the RaPID-derived peptides are implanted onto diverse proteins and maintain both ...

Dataset concerning GroEL chaperonin interaction with proteins

open access: yesData in Brief, 2016
GroEL chaperonin is well-known to interact with a wide variety of polypeptide chains. Here we show the data related to our previous work (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.pep.2015.11.020 [1]), and concerning the interaction of GroEL with native (lysozyme, α ...
