Distribution, transition and thermodynamic stability of protein conformations in the denaturant-induced unfolding of proteins. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Extensive and intensive studies on the unfolding of proteins require appropriate theoretical model and parameter to clearly illustrate the feature and characteristic of the unfolding system. Over the past several decades, four approaches have

Unfolded Protein Responses With or Without Unfolded Proteins? [PDF]
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the site of secretory protein biogenesis. The ER quality control (QC) machinery, including chaperones, ensures the correct folding of secretory proteins. Mutant proteins and environmental stresses can overwhelm the available QC machinery.

The spliceosome protein U1A is a prototype case of the RNA recognition motif (RRM) ubiquitous in biological systems. The in vitro kinetics of the chemical denaturation of U1A indicate that the unfolding of U1A is a two-state process but takes place via ...

Multi-Step Unfolding and Rearrangement of α-Lactalbumin by SDS Revealed by Stopped-Flow SAXS
Interactions between proteins and surfactants are both of fundamental interest and relevant for applications in food, cosmetics and detergency. The anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) denatures essentially all proteins. Denaturation typically

Exposure of many cancer cells, including multiple myeloma cells, to cytotoxic concentrations of natural products celastrol and withaferin A or synthetic compounds of the IHSF series resulted in denaturation of a luciferase reporter protein.

Development and Application of a High Throughput Protein Unfolding Kinetic Assay. [PDF]
The kinetics of folding and unfolding underlie protein stability and quantification of these rates provides important insights into the folding process.

Funneled angle landscapes for helical proteins [PDF]
We use crystallographic data for four helical iron proteins (cytochrome c-b₅₆₂, cytochrome c′, sperm whale myoglobin, human cytoglobin) to calculate radial and angular signatures as each unfolds from the native state stepwise though four unfolded states.

Thermal, chemical and pH induced denaturation of a multimeric β-galactosidase reveals multiple unfolding pathways. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In this case study, we analysed the properties of unfolded states and pathways leading to complete denaturation of a multimeric chick pea β-galactosidase (CpGAL), as obtained from treatment with guanidium hydrochloride, urea, elevated ...

Same structure, different mechanisms?
Two interpretations of similar structures for the same molecular machine illustrate the limits of inferring biochemical mechanism from protein structure.
