Cytoplasmic dynein and dynactin participate in retrograde transport of organelles, checkpoint signaling and cell division. The principal subunits that mediate this interaction are the dynein intermediate chain (IC) and the dynactin p150(Glued); howev

Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans has been implicated as a causative organism in early-onset periodontitis. The mechanisms by which A. actinomycetemcomitans is pathogenic are not known, but the organism produces several potential virulence factors

We have developed a computational design strategy based on the α-helical coiled-coil to generate modular peptide motifs capable of assembling into metalloporphyrin arrays of varying lengths. The current study highlights the extension of a two-metall

Coagulation factor XI (FXI) is a covalent homodimer consisting of two identical subunits of 80 kDa linked by a disulfide bond formed by Cys-321 within the Apple 4 domain of each subunit. Because FXI(C321S) is a noncovalent dimer, residues within the

Summary We explore the interplay between amino acid sequence, thermodynamic stability, and functional fitness in the M2 proton channel of influenza A virus. Electrophysiological measurements show that drug-resistant mutations have minimal effects on

A variety of methods exist for the design or selection of antibodies and other proteins that recognize the water-soluble regions of proteins; however, companion methods for targeting transmembrane (TM) regions are not available. Here, we describe a m

We report a systematic analysis of the relationship between salt bridge composition and 14-helix structure within a family of model beta-peptides in aqueous buffer. We find an inverse relationship between side-chain length and the extent of 14-helix

We have designed polypeptides combining selected lipophilic (LP) and hydrophilic (HP) sequences that assemble into amphiphilic (AP) alpha-helical bundles to reproduce key structure characteristics and functional elements of natural membrane proteins.

Factor XI, unlike other coagulation proteins, is a homodimer of two identical subunits linked by a single disulfide bond formed by Cys321. The present study was undertaken to understand the physiological significance of the dimeric nature of factor X

The driving forces behind the folding processes of integral membrane proteins after insertion into the bilayer, is currently under debate. The M2 protein from the influenza A virus is an ideal system to study lateral association of transmembrane heli
