SCREENING INTERACTIONS BETWEEN PROTEINS AND DISORDERED PEPTIDES BY A NOVEL COMPUTATIONAL METHOD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Concerted interactions between proteins in cells form the basis of most biological processes. Biophysicists study protein–protein association by measuring thermodynamic and kinetic properties.

Intramolecular autoinhibition regulates the selectivity of PRPF40A tandem WW domains for proline-rich motifs

open access: yesNature Communications
PRPF40A plays an important role in the regulation of pre-mRNA splicing by mediating protein-protein interactions in the early steps of spliceosome assembly.

USP29‐regulated noncanonical stabilization of the hypoxia‐inducible factor‐α in aggressive prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We identify USP29 as the only DUB mirroring CA9 expression, a marker of hypoxia and HIF pathway activation associated with PCA aggressiveness. USP29 stabilizes HIF‐1α and HIF‐2α via a noncanonical mechanism that is independent of PHD/pVHL activity yet relies on proteasomal regulation, establishing USP29 as a previously unrecognized regulator of hypoxic

Functional studies of serine/threonine protein kinase signalling in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Fork-head associated (FHA) domains function in the assembly of signalling complexes through specific interactions with phospho-threonine motifs. FHA domains are found in eukaryotes, and intriguingly in a subset of bacterial species including Mycobacteria

A novel quinazolinone insulin receptor inhibitor and its synergy with an EGFR inhibitor in glucose‐driven glioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Polycation-π Interactions Are a Driving Force for Molecular Recognition by an Intrinsically Disordered Oncoprotein Family [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Molecular recognition by intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) commonly involves specific localized contacts and target-induced disorder to order transitions.

Analysis of α-Dystroglycan/LG Domain Binding Modes: Investigating Protein Motifs That Regulate the Affinity of Isolated LG Domains

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2019
Dystroglycan (DG) is an adhesion complex that links the cytoskeleton to the surrounding extracellular matrix in skeletal muscle and a wide variety of other tissues.

Oncogenic DMTF1β promotes cancer cell motility by regulating autophagy through ULK1 stabilization

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the current study, we demonstrate that the oncogene DMTF1β regulates ULK1 stability by reducing its proteasomal degradation in cancer cells. This stabilization enables ULK1 to induce autophagy, which in turn facilitates cancer cell migration. Consequently, reduced DMTF1β levels lead to decreased autophagy and impaired cancer cell migration.

Signals involved in protein intracellular sorting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
“…Confusion appears to occur just after the articulation of a major conceptual advance that served to greatly clarify a problem of exceptional importance.”- Ira Mellman, 1996.

Kinesin-1 conformational dynamics are controlled by a cargo-sensitive TPR switch

open access: yeseLife
Kinesin-1 is a dynamic heterotetrameric assembly of two heavy and two light chains (KHC and KLC) that mediates microtubule-based intracellular transport of many different cargoes.
