Background The Arabidopsis ortholog of the 30 kD subunit of the mammalian Cleavage and Polyadenylation Specificity Factor (AtCPSF30) is an RNA-binding endonuclease that is associated with other Arabidopsis CPSF subunits (orthologs of the 160, 100, and 73

Understanding protein-complex assembly through grand canonical maximum entropy modeling
Inside a cell, heterotypic proteins assemble in inhomogeneous, crowded systems where the abundance of these proteins vary with cell types. While some protein complexes form putative structures that can be visualized with imaging, there are far more ...

The MX-Helix of Muscle nAChR Subunits Regulates Receptor Assembly and Surface Trafficking. [PDF]
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) are pentameric channels that mediate fast transmission at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and defects in receptor expression underlie neuromuscular disorders such as myasthenia gravis and congenital myasthenic ...

A Peptide Core Motif for Binding to Heterotrimeric G Protein α Subunits [PDF]
Recently, in vitro selection using mRNA display was used to identify a novel peptide sequence that binds with high affinity to G{alpha}i1. The peptide was minimized to a 9-residue sequence (R6A-1) that retains high affinity and specificity for the GDP ...

In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Mitochondrial calcium (mCa2+) uptake occurs via the Mitochondrial Ca2+ Uniporter (MCU) complex and plays a critical role in mitochondrial dynamics, mitophagy, and apoptosis.

Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Denervation-induced activation of the standard proteasome and immunoproteasome [PDF]
The standard 26S proteasome is responsible for the majority of myofibrillar protein degradation leading to muscle atrophy. The immunoproteasome is an inducible form of the proteasome.

Subunit interactions of the Go protein
The monoclonal antibody, MONO, recognizes an epitope on the G protein αo‐subunit [van der Voorn et al., submitted] and readily immunoprecipitates heterotrimeric Go proteins from solubilized, crude bovine brain membranes, as well as from a purified bovine brain G protein preparation.

Protein subunit interfaces: heterodimers versus homodimers [PDF]
Protein dimers are either homodimers (complexation of identical monomers) or heterodimers (complexation of non-identical monomers). These dimers are common in catalysis and regulation. However, the molecular principles of protein dimer interactions are difficult to understand mainly due to the geometrical and chemical characteristics of proteins ...
