Protein conformation and biomolecular condensates. [PDF]
Curr Res Struct Biol, 2022 Protein conformation and cell compartmentalization are fundamental concepts and subjects of vast scientific endeavors. In the last two decades, we have witnessed exciting advances that unveiled the conjunction of these concepts. An avalanche of studies highlighted the central role of biomolecular condensates in membraneless subcellular ...

Protein conformation in a vaccine matters. [PDF]
Oncotarget, 2015 Vaccination is one of the most successful public health measures for control of viral diseases. Indeed, vaccines have either eliminated or considerably reduced many viral diseases worldwide. However, there are still many serious viral pathogens for which no vaccine is available. One of these pathogens is respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

Cooperative Gating and Spatial Organization of Membrane Proteins through Elastic Interactions [PDF]
, 2007 Biological membranes are elastic media in which the presence of a transmembrane protein leads to local bilayer deformation. The energetics of deformation allow two membrane proteins in close proximity to influence each other's equilibrium conformation ...

Population Shuffling of Protein Conformations [PDF]
Angewandte Chemie, 2014 AbstractMotions play a vital role in the functions of many proteins. Discrete conformational transitions to excited states, happening on timescales of hundreds of microseconds, have been extensively characterized. On the other hand, the dynamics of the ground state are widely unexplored.

Pyrene: A Probe to Study Protein Conformation and Conformational Changes [PDF]
Molecules, 2011 The review focuses on the unique spectral features of pyrene that can be utilized to investigate protein structure and conformation. Pyrene is a fluorescent probe that can be attached covalently to protein side chains, such as sulfhydryl groups. The spectral features of pyrene are exquisitely sensitive to the microenvironment of the probe: it exhibits ...

Tracing conformational changes in proteins [PDF]
2009 IEEE International Conference on Bioinformatics and Biomedicine Workshop, 2009 Many proteins undergo extensive conformational changes as part of their functionality. Tracing these changes is important for understanding the way these proteins function. Traditional biophysics-based conformational search methods require a large number of calculations and are hard to apply to large-scale conformational motions.In this work we ...
