A constant domain mutation in a patient-derived antibody light chain reveals principles of AL amyloidosis

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Biophysical approaches reveal how a mutation in the constant light chain domain of a patient-derived antibody destabilizes the constant domain, prevents the dimerization of the light chain, and makes it more prone to proteolytic cleavage, unleashing the ...

Binary Assignments of Amino Acids from Pattern Conservation

open access: yes, 1997
We develop a simple optimization procedure for assigning binary values to the amino acids. The binary values are determined by a maximization of the degree of pattern conservation in groups of closely related protein sequences.

Uncoupling protein 2: a key player and a potential therapeutic target in vascular diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) is an inner mitochondrial membrane protein that belongs to the uncoupling protein family and plays an important role in lowering mitochondrial membrane potential and dissipating metabolic energy with prevention of oxidative ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Intracellular C3 regulates the immune response to infection via NF-κB signaling

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences
Complement factor C3 is one of the most abundant proteins in the bloodstream and a central part of the complement system. Upon activation, C3 facilitates bacterial recognition and clearance in the extracellular environment.

Positional proteomics reveals differences in N‐terminal proteoform stability

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2016
To understand the impact of alternative translation initiation on a proteome, we performed a proteome‐wide study on protein turnover using positional proteomics and ribosome profiling to distinguish between N‐terminal proteoforms of individual genes.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Discovering covalent cyclic peptide inhibitors of peptidyl arginine deiminase 4 (PADI4) using mRNA-display with a genetically encoded electrophilic warhead

open access: yesCommunications Chemistry
Covalent drugs can achieve high potency with long dosing intervals. However, concerns remain about side-effects associated with off-target reactivity.

RosettaBackrub--a web server for flexible backbone protein structure modeling and design. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The RosettaBackrub server (http://kortemmelab.ucsf.edu/backrub) implements the Backrub method, derived from observations of alternative conformations in high-resolution protein crystal structures, for flexible backbone protein modeling.
