von Willebrand factor binds to the surface of dendritic cells and modulates peptide presentation of factor VIII

Haematologica, 2016
It has been proposed that von Willebrand factor might affect factor VIII immunogenicity by reducing factor VIII uptake by antigen presenting cells. Here we investigate the interaction of recombinant von Willebrand factor with immature monocyte-derived ...

Regulators of G protein signalling proteins in the human myometrium [PDF]

, 2009
The contractile state of the human myometrium is controlled by extracellular signals that promote relaxation or contraction. Many of these signals function through G proteincoupled receptors at the cell surface, stimulating heterotrimeric G proteins and ...

Disease progression in cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis is indicated by serial calculation of National Amyloidosis Centre transthyretin amyloidosis stage

ESC Heart Failure, 2020
Aims Cardiac transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR‐CM) is a progressive and fatal condition. Prognosis can be determined at diagnosis according to the National Amyloidosis Centre (NAC) transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) stage.

Proteins and polymers

, 2005
Proteins, chain molecules of amino acids, behave in ways which are similar to each other yet quite distinct from standard compact polymers. We demonstrate that the Flory theorem, derived for polymer melts, holds for compact protein native state ...

Binding kinetics of membrane-anchored receptors and ligands: molecular dynamics simulations and theory [PDF]

, 2015
The adhesion of biological membranes is mediated by the binding of membrane-anchored receptor and ligand proteins. Central questions are how the binding kinetics of these proteins is affected by the membranes and by the membrane anchoring of the proteins.

14-3-3-protein regulates Nedd4-2 by modulating interactions between HECT and WW domains

Communications Biology, 2021
Pohl et al. investigated the structural basis of Nedd4-2 regulation by 14-3-3 and found that phosphorylated Ser342 and Ser448 are the main residues that facilitate 14-3-3 binding to Nedd4-2.

Backbone chemical shift assignments of human 14-3-3$\sigma$ [PDF]

, 2019
14-3-3 proteins are a group of seven dimeric adapter proteins that exert their biological function by interacting with hundreds of phosphorylated proteins, thus influencing their sub-cellular localization, activity or stability in the cell.

Crystal Structures of R-Type Bacteriocin Sheath and Tube Proteins CD1363 and CD1364 From Clostridium difficile in the Pre-assembled State

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Diffocins are high-molecular-weight phage tail-like bacteriocins (PTLBs) that some Clostridium difficile strains produce in response to SOS induction. Similar to the related R-type pyocins from Pseudomonas aeruginosa, R-type diffocins act as molecular ...

The likelihood that two proteins interact might depend on the proteins' age [PDF]

, 2007
It has been previously shown [1] that _S. cerevisiae_ proteins preferentially interact with proteins of the same estimated likely time of origin. To study this observation further, the protein interaction networks of _S. cerevisiae_ and _H.

Survival Outcomes and Complications Among Canadian Children With Retinoblastoma: A Population‐Based Report From CYP‐C

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most common pediatric ocular cancer, yet population‐based data on survival and risk factors remain limited. This study aimed to describe survival in a large national RB cohort and identify predictors of death and complications.
