CD33 forms functional dimers on cell surface to modulate Alzheimer risk [PDF]
Abstract Background The sialic‐acid binding immunoglobulin‐like lectin 3 receptor (Siglec‐3 / CD33) is one of the highly associated AD risk genes. Previous studies revealed that the non‐coding AD‐risk alleles (rs3865444 and rs12459419) are associated with increased total levels of CD33 expression and a higher relative expression of the long CD33M ...

Correlating membrane-protein dynamics with function: Integrating bioinformatics, molecular dynamics, and single-molecule FRET. [PDF]
Abstract We present a strategy that deploys structural bioinformatics, molecular simulation, and single‐molecule Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) microscopy for observing the ligand‐dependent conformational dynamics of integral membrane proteins in situ.

Distribution of graph-distances in Boltzmann ensembles of RNA secondary structures [PDF]
Large RNA molecules often carry multiple functional domains whose spatial arrangement is an important determinant of their function. Pre-mRNA splicing, furthermore, relies on the spatial proximity of the splice junctions that can be separated by very ...

Preparation of ribosomes for smFRET studies: A simplified approach [PDF]
During the past decade, single-molecule studies of the ribosome have significantly advanced our understanding of protein synthesis. The broadest application of these methods has been towards the investigation of ribosome conformational dynamics using single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET).

BOBA FRET: bootstrap-based analysis of single-molecule FRET data. [PDF]
Time-binned single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) experiments with surface-tethered nucleic acids or proteins permit to follow folding and catalysis of single molecules in real-time. Due to the intrinsically low signal-to-noise ratio

Activation-induced deoxycytidine deaminase (AID) co-transcriptional scanning at single-molecule resolution [PDF]
Activation-induced deoxycytidine deaminase (AID) generates antibody diversity in B cells by initiating somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class-switch recombination (CSR) during transcription of immunoglobulin variable (IgV) and switch region (IgS) DNA ...
