CtBP1-S/BARS is required for fission of endomembrane compartments including the Golgi. Here the authors show that CtBP1-S/BARS activates a trans-Golgi lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase that catalyses the production of phosphatidic acid and is ...

MEGADOCK-Web-Mito: human mitochondrial protein-protein interaction prediction database [PDF]
Mitochondrial diseases are largely caused by dysfunction in mitochondrial proteins. However, annotations of human mitochondrial proteins are scattered across various public databases and individual studies. To facilitate research aimed at elucidating mitochondrial functions, we constructed the MEGADOCK-Web-Mito database as a protein-protein interaction

In modular polyketide synthases, the dehydratase (DH) domain catalyzes the dehydration reaction of the β‐hydroxyacyl unit attached to the cognate acyl carrier protein (ACP) domain. However, it is unclear how DH interacts with ACP during the reaction. In this study, we identified DH–ACP interface residues, providing the first detailed insights into DH ...

Knowledge-based energy functions for computational studies of proteins [PDF]
This chapter discusses theoretical framework and methods for developing knowledge-based potential functions essential for protein structure prediction, protein-protein interaction, and protein sequence design. We discuss in some details about the Miyazawa-Jernigan contact statistical potential, distance-dependent statistical potentials, as well as ...

Small antimicrobial resistance proteins (SARPs): Small proteins conferring antimicrobial resistance [PDF]
Small open reading frames are understudied as they have been historically excluded from genome annotations. However, evidence for the functional significance of small proteins in various cellular processes accumulates. Proteins with less than 70 residues can also confer resistance to antimicrobial compounds, including intracellularly-acting protein ...

Functional variation among LPMOs revealed by the inhibitory effects of cyanide and buffer ions
This study addresses the inhibition of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) by cyanide and explains how and why the magnitude of observed inhibitory effects depends on the way LPMO reactions are setup and on the type of LPMO. Enzymes known as lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are mono‐copper polysaccharide‐degrading peroxygenases that ...

Effects of Proteins on Protein Diffusion [PDF]
Despite increased attention, little is known about how the crowded intracellular environment affects basic phenomena like protein diffusion. Here, we use NMR to quantify the rotational and translational diffusion of a 7.4-kDa test protein, chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 (CI2), in solutions of glycerol, synthetic polymers, proteins, and cell lysates.
