A structure of substrate-bound Synaptojanin1 provides new insights in its mechanism and the effect of disease mutations

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Synaptojanin1 (Synj1) is a phosphoinositide phosphatase, important in clathrin uncoating during endocytosis of presynaptic vesicles. It was identified as a potential drug target for Alzheimer’s disease, Down syndrome, and TBC1D24-associated epilepsy ...

A systematic screen for protein–lipid interactions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2010
Protein–metabolite networks are central to biological systems, but are incompletely understood. Here, we report a screen to catalog protein–lipid interactions in yeast.

Ribosomal Antibiotics: Contemporary Challenges

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2016
Most ribosomal antibiotics obstruct distinct ribosomal functions. In selected cases, in addition to paralyzing vital ribosomal tasks, some ribosomal antibiotics are involved in cellular regulation.

Cryo-electron microscopy and image classification reveal the existence and structure of the coxsackievirus A6 virion

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
A cryo-EM structure for the three conformers of coxsackievirus A6 provides insight into the infection process of this enterovirus, which is responsible for numerous cases of hand, foot, and mouth disease.

Cell type‐specific nuclear pores: a case in point for context‐dependent stoichiometry of molecular machines

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2013
To understand the structure and function of large molecular machines, accurate knowledge of their stoichiometry is essential. In this study, we developed an integrated targeted proteomics and super‐resolution microscopy approach to determine the absolute

Degron masking outlines degronons, co-degrading functional modules in the proteome

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2022
Systematic bioinformatics analysis of cooperative degradation of protein complexes indicates that degrons extensively overlap with protein-protein interaction sites, hiding degrons from ubiquitination machinery and suggesting the existence of co ...

Dual drug targeting to kill colon cancers

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2022
Introduction Colorectal cancer (CRC) is driven by a small set of oncogenic and tumour suppressor mutations. However, different combinations of mutations often lead to poor tumour responses to individual anticancer drugs.

Structure of the TFIIIC subcomplex τA provides insights into RNA polymerase III pre-initiation complex formation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Transcription factor TFIIIC plays roles in Pol III transcription and in chromatin organization. CryoEM structure of the yeast TFIIIC subcomplex τA, a negative stain reconstruction of τA bound to the TFIIIB subunits Brf1 and TBP and accompanying ...

Variable microtubule architecture in the malaria parasite

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Microtubules are a ubiquitous eukaryotic cytoskeletal element typically consisting of 13 protofilaments arranged in a hollow cylinder. Using CryoEM and subvolume averaging, Ferreira and Pražák et al.

Structural biology

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1999
Protein crystallography has become a major technique for understanding cellular processes. This has come about through great advances in the technology of data collection and interpretation, particularly the use of synchrotron radiation. The ability to express eukaryotic genes in Escherichia coli
