Analysis of the initiating events in HIV-1 particle assembly and genome packaging. [PDF]
HIV-1 Gag drives a number of events during the genesis of virions and is the only viral protein required for the assembly of virus-like particles in vitro and in cells.

Evolutionarily conserved herpesviral protein interaction networks. [PDF]
Herpesviruses constitute a family of large DNA viruses widely spread in vertebrates and causing a variety of different diseases. They possess dsDNA genomes ranging from 120 to 240 kbp encoding between 70 to 170 open reading frames. We previously reported

DNA-Mediated Stack Formation of Nanodiscs
Membrane-scaffolding proteins (MSPs) derived from apolipoprotein A-1 have become a versatile tool in generating nano-sized discoidal membrane mimetics (nanodiscs) for membrane protein research.

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

Dynamics of HIV-1 assembly and release. [PDF]
Assembly and release of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) occur at the plasma membrane of infected cells and are driven by the Gag polyprotein. Previous studies analyzed viral morphogenesis using biochemical methods and static images, while dynamic and ...

The Vesicle-inducing Protein 1 from Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 Organizes into Diverse Higher-Ordered Ring Structures [PDF]
The vesicle-inducing protein in plastids 1 (Vipp1) was found to be involved in thylakoid membrane formation in chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. In contrast to chloroplasts, it has been suggested that in cyanobacteria the protein is only tightly associated

The Evolution of Multimeric Protein Assemblages [PDF]
Although the mechanisms by which complex cellular features evolve constitute one of the great unsolved problems of evolutionary biology, it is clear that the emergence of new protein-protein interactions, often accompanied by the diversification of duplicate genes, is involved.
