Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The HADDOCK team participated in CAPRI rounds 47–55 as server, manual predictor, and scorers. Throughout these CAPRI rounds, we used a plethora of computational strategies to predict the structure of protein complexes. Of the 10 targets comprising 24 interfaces, we achieved acceptable or better models for 3 targets in the human category and 1 ...

Type I Toxin-Antitoxin Systems in Clostridia [PDF]
Toxins, 2019 Type I toxin-antitoxin (TA) modules are abundant in both bacterial plasmids and chromosomes and usually encode a small hydrophobic toxic protein and an antisense RNA acting as an antitoxin. The RNA antitoxin neutralizes toxin mRNA by inhibiting its translation and/or promoting its degradation.

Identification and characterisation of toxin-antitoxin systems (TA) in Burkholderia pseudomallei [PDF]
, 2013 The aim of this study was to identify and characterise type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems in Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of the human disease melioidosis. 8 putative TA systems were identified within the genome of B. pseudomallei

Shaping Pulses to Control Bistable Biological Systems [PDF]
, 2015 In this paper we study how to shape temporal pulses to switch a bistable system between its stable steady states. Our motivation for pulse-based control comes from applications in synthetic biology, where it is generally difficult to implement real-time ...

Biomolecular Interaction Prediction in the Pre‐ and Post‐AlphaFold Era: The 8th CAPRI Evaluation
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We report on the 8th CAPRI Evaluation period, capturing the assessment of CAPRI Rounds 47 to 55 (excluding the CASP and COVID‐related Rounds), which have witnessed the transition to AI‐driven prediction tools such as AlphaFold and related alternatives. The prediction Rounds in this evaluation are characterized by a high level of difficulty due

Characterization of the interaction and cross-regulation of three Mycobacterium tuberculosis RelBE modules. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 RelBE represents a typical bacterial toxin-antitoxin (TA) system. Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv, the pathogen responsible for human tuberculosis, contains three RelBE-like modules, RelBE, RelFG, and RelJK, which are at least partly expressed in human ...

Control of Toxin-Antitoxin Systems by Proteases in Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are small genetic elements composed of a noxious toxin and a counteracting cognate antitoxin. Although they are widespread in bacterial chromosomes and in mobile genetic elements, their cellular functions and activation ...

Type II Toxin-Antitoxin Systems and Persister Cells
mBio, 2018 Last year, Gerdes and colleagues published a paper (1) describing experiments that failed to support earlier work from their group (2, 3) which had implicated 10 type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems in the formation of antibiotic-tolerant Escherichia coli K-12 persister cells.

An SOS-Regulated Type 2 Toxin-Antitoxin System [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2009 ABSTRACTTheEscherichia colichromosome encodes seven demonstrated type 2 toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems: cassettes of two or three cotranscribed genes, one encoding a stable toxin protein that can cause cell stasis or death, another encoding a labile antitoxin protein, and sometimes a third regulatory protein.
