Single stranded DNA: A new model system for single molecule polymer dynamics [PDF]
, 2011 The study of polymer dynamics has been an active area of research for many years. For nearly two decades, fluorescently-labeled double stranded DNA (dsDNA) has been the model system for studying single molecule polymer dynamics in non-equilibrium ...

Structural and biochemical analysis of a B12 superbinder
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.BtuG proteins are vitamin B12 scavengers in Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant human gut bacterium. We present crystal structures of three BtuG homologs bound to cobalamin and its precursor cobinamide, revealing picomolar binding affinities, among the highest known for any natural protein.

Single-Molecule Imaging of Bmp4 Dimerization on Human Periodontal Ligament Cells
, 2012 We expressed bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) fused with enhanced green fluorescent protein (BMP4-EGFP) in the secretory pathways of producer cells. Fluorescent EGFP was acquired only after we interrupted the transport of BMP4- EGFP by culturing cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

Single-molecule study of the DNA helicase regulating genomic stability [PDF]
, 2011 A DNA helicase, PcrA is an essential protein in gram-positive bacteria. PcrA utilizes its helicase activity and translocation activity to regulate various cellular functions including plasmid replication and counteracting deleterious recombination ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...
