Domain orientation in the RNA helicase YxiN and the role of conformational changes for RNA unwinding [PDF]
, 2010 The RNA helicase YxiN from Bacillus subtilis is a member of the family of DEAD box proteins. YxiN is able to unwind RNA double strands in an ATP-dependent manner. The ability to catalyse RNA rearrangement is in vivo presumably necessary for the bacterial

On Hydrophobicity and Conformational Specificity in Proteins [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2004 In this study we examine the distribution of hydrophobic residues in a nonredundant set of monomeric globular single-domain proteins. We find that the total fraction of hydrophobic residues is roughly constant and has no discernible dependence on protein size.

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 ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Effect of enzymatic deimination on the conformation of recombinant prion protein [PDF]
, 2009 Deimination is the post-translational conversion of arginine residues to citrulline. It has been implicated as a causative factor in autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis and more recently, as a marker of ...

Structural Changes of RNA in Complex with Proteins in the SRP
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2018 The structural flexibility of RNA allows it to exist in several shapes and sizes. Thus, RNA is functionally diverse and is known to be involved in processes such as catalysis, ligand binding, and most importantly, protein recognition.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
