3DSwap: curated knowledgebase of proteins involved in 3D domain swapping
Three-dimensional domain swapping is a unique protein structural phenomenon where two or more protein chains in a protein oligomer share a common structural segment between individual chains. This phenomenon is observed in an array of protein structures in oligomeric conformation. Protein structures in swapped conformations perform diverse functional roles and are also associated with depositio...
متن کاملThe enigma of the near-symmetry of proteins: Domain swapping
The majority of proteins form oligomers which have rotational symmetry. Literature has suggested many functional advantages that the symmetric packing offers. Yet, despite these advantages, the vast majority of protein oligomers are only nearly symmetric. A key question in the field of proteins structure is therefore, if symmetry is so advantageous, why do oligomers settle for aggregates that d...
متن کاملDMAK: A curated pan-cancer DNA methylation annotation knowledgebase
Pan-cancer analysis can identify cell- and tissue-specific genomic loci and regions with underlying biological functions. Here we present an online curated DNA Methylation Annotation Knowledgebase, DMAK, which includes the pan-cancer analysis results for differentially-methylated loci and regions by the Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing profiling technology. DMAK contains 3 modules of...
متن کامل3D domain swapping, protein oligomerization, and amyloid formation.
In 3D domain swapping, first described by Eisenberg, a structural element of a monomeric protein is replaced by the same element from another subunit. This process requires partial unfolding of the closed monomers that is then followed by adhesion and reconstruction of the original fold but from elements contributed by different subunits. If the interactions are reciprocal, a closed-ended dimer...
متن کامل3D domain swapping: as domains continue to swap.
Three-dimensional (3D) domain swapping creates a bond between two or more protein molecules as they exchange their identical domains. Since the term '3D domain swapping' was first used to describe the dimeric structure of diphtheria toxin, the database of domain-swapped proteins has greatly expanded. Analyses of the now about 40 structurally characterized cases of domain-swapped proteins reveal...
