STAM Proteins Bind Ubiquitinated Proteins on the Early Endosome via the VHS Domain and Ubiquitin-interacting Motif [PDF]
Conjugation with ubiquitin acts as a sorting signal for proteins in the endocytic and biosynthetic pathways at the endosome. Signal-transducing adaptor molecule (STAM) proteins, STAM1 and STAM2, are associated with hepatocyte growth factor-regulated substrate (Hrs) but their function remains unknown.

Inhibition of HIV budding by a genetically selected cyclic peptide targeting the Gag?TSG101 interaction [PDF]
The egress of HIV particles from virus-infected cells is accomplished by the recruitment of proteins that normally mediate host cell endocytic functions.

The S100A1 protein in humans is a calcium-binding protein. Upon Ca2+ binding to S100A1 EF-hand motifs, the conformation of S100A1 changes and promotes interactions with target proteins.

The role of TNRC6 proteins in gene silencing [PDF]
Proteins of the GW182 family have recently emerged as key players in miRNAmediated gene silencing. They have been shown to interact with Argonaute proteins, components of the RISC and are assumed to mediate the repression in metazoa. Three paralogues are

WD40-Repeat Proteins in Ciliopathies and Congenital Disorders of Endocrine System [PDF]
WD40-repeat (WDR)-containing proteins constitute an evolutionarily conserved large protein family with a broad range of biological functions. In human proteome, WDR makes up one of the most abundant protein-protein interaction domains. Members of the WDR

Protein-protein interactions, particularly weak and transient ones, are often mediated by peptide recognition domains, such as Src Homology 2 and 3 (SH2 and SH3) domains, which bind to specific sequence and structural motifs. It is important but challenging to determine the binding specificity of these domains accurately and to predict their ...

Structural Mechanism for the Specific Assembly and Activation of the Extracellular Signal Regulated Kinase 5 (ERK5) Module [PDF]
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation depends on a linear binding motif found in all MAPK kinases (MKK). In addition, the PB1 (Phox and Bem1) domain of MKK5 is required for extracellular signal regulated kinase 5 (ERK5) activation.

Cholesterol Interaction with the MAGUK Protein Family Member, MPP1, via CRAC and CRAC-Like Motifs: An In Silico Docking Analysis. [PDF]
Cholesterol is essential for the proper organization of the biological membrane. Therefore, predicting which proteins can bind cholesterol is important in understanding how proteins participate in lateral membrane organization.
