FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Septin 9 polybasic domains couple phosphoinositide‐rich membrane binding to centrosome positioning, Golgi organization, and microtubule acetylation to control epithelial polarity. Their loss disrupts this axis, causing centrosome mispositioning, Golgi fragmentation, reduced microtubule acetylation, and polarity inversion via upregulation of the ...

The Computer‐Assisted Sequence Annotation (CASA) workflow for enzyme discovery
Applications in Plant SciencesPremise With the advent of inexpensive nucleic acid sequencing and automated annotation at the level of basic functionality, the central problem of enzyme discovery is no longer finding active sequences, it is determining which ones are suitable for ...

Sequence analysis of the AAA protein family [PDF]
Protein Science, 1997 AbstractThe AAA protein family, a recently recognized group of Walker‐type ATPases, has been subjected to an extensive sequence analysis. Multiple sequence alignments revealed the existence of a region of sequence similarity, the so‐called AAA cassette.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

Bioinformatic analysis of THAP9 transposase homolog: conserved regions, novel motifs
Current Research in Structural BiologyTHAP9 is a transposable element-derived gene that encodes the THAP9 protein, which is homologous to the Drosophila P-element transposase (DmTNP) and can cut and paste DNA. However, the exact functional role of THAP9 is unknown. Here, we perform structure

Word correlation matrices for protein sequence analysis and remote homology detection
BMC Bioinformatics, 2008 Background Classification of protein sequences is a central problem in computational biology. Currently, among computational methods discriminative kernel-based approaches provide the most accurate results.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

Amino acid sequence of rabbit apolipoprotein E.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1991 The complete amino acid sequence of rabbit apolipoprotein E (apoE) was determined by generating three sets of peptides using cyanogen bromide, endoproteinase AspN, and Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease to cleave the protein.
