CHAPTER 1.1. Disulfide Bonds in Protein Folding and Stability [PDF]
Disulfide bonds are unique among post-translational modifications, as they add covalent crosslinks to the polypeptide chain. Accordingly, they can exert pronounced effects on protein folding and stability. This is of particular importance for secreted or

N- and C-terminal α-synuclein (α-syn) truncations are prevalent in Parkinson’s disease. Effects of the N- and C-terminal residues on α-syn aggregation and fibril propagation are distinct, where the N-terminus dictates fibril structure. Here, the majority

Conformational transition of a myelin protein [PDF]
An interesting transition from conformation to p-structure has been reported for phosvitin [ 1, 21. Taborsky [l] found that the transition from random to &structure was induced by low pH (1.8) and was reversed by raising the pH. Perlman and Grizzuti [2] found that at pH 2.0 phosvitin had a /3-structure, while in the pH range 6.0-10.0 the ORD and CD ...

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Alteration of protein function by a silent polymorphism linked to tRNA abundance [PDF]
Synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (sSNPs) are considered neutral for protein function, as by definition they exchange only codons, not amino acids.

Orthopaedic health, conformation and longevity in riding horses [PDF]
Soundness and longevity of the riding horse play a central role for animal welfare, sport performance and horse owner economy. Routine registration of health traits in horses is rare. Thus, knowledge of genetic variation in health of horses and long term

A model of protein conformational substates [PDF]
Many proteins have been observed to exist in a large number of conformations that are believed to play an important role in their dynamics. A model of protein conformational substates that incorporates the ideas of frustration and disorder in analogy to glasses and spin glasses is proposed.

Predicting conformational switches in proteins [PDF]
AbstractWe describe a new computational technique to predict conformationally switching elements in proteins from their amino acid sequences. The method, called ASP (Ambivalent Structure Predictor), analyzes results from a secondary structure prediction algorithm to identify regions of conformational ambivalence. ASP identifies ambivalent regions in 16

Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...
