The structural flexibility of MAD1 facilitates the assembly of the Mitotic Checkpoint Complex. [PDF]

Nat Commun, 2023
The formation of the mitotic checkpoint complex requires an intricate spatial coordination amongst the proteins Bub1, Mad1, Cdc20, and Mad2. Chen et al show that a structural flexibility in Mad1 plays an essential role in achieving this coordination. The

Mixed-linker strategy for suppressing structural flexibility of metal-organic framework membranes for gas separation. [PDF]

Commun Chem, 2023
Structural flexibility is a critical issue that limits the application of metal-organic framework (MOF) membranes for gas separation. Herein we propose a mixed-linker approach to suppress the structural flexibility of the CAU-10-based (CAU = Christian ...

The Structural Flexibility of PR-10 Food Allergens. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci, 2022
PR-10 proteins constitute a major cause of food allergic reactions. Birch-pollen-related food allergies are triggered by the immunologic cross-reactivity of IgE antibodies with structurally homologous PR-10 proteins that are present in birch pollen and ...

Characterizing Organizational Lifecycle through Strategic and Structural Flexibility: Insights from MSMEs in Mexico. [PDF]

Glob J Flex Syst Manag, 2022
Today’s lifespan of companies tends to be low in the so-called micro-, small-, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs). Organizational life cycle (OLC) theory indicates that organizational aging is related, but not determined, by the firm chronological age ...

Local structural flexibility drives oligomorphism in computationally designed protein assemblies. [PDF]

Nat Struct Mol Biol
Many naturally occurring protein assemblies have dynamic structures that allow them to perform specialized functions. Although computational methods for designing novel self-assembling proteins have advanced substantially over the past decade, they ...

Controlling the Substrate Specificity of an Enzyme through Structural Flexibility by Varying the Salt-Bridge Density [PDF]

Molecules, 2021
Many enzymes, particularly in one single family, with highly conserved structures and folds exhibit rather distinct substrate specificities. The underlying mechanism remains elusive, the resolution of which is of great importance for biochemistry ...
