Kinesin-1 structural organization and conformational changes revealed by FRET stoichiometry in live cells
Kinesin motor proteins drive the transport of cellular cargoes along microtubule tracks. How motor protein activity is controlled in cells is unresolved, but it is likely coupled to changes in protein conformation and cargo association. By applying the quantitative method fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) stoichiometry to fluorescent protein (FP)-labeled kinesin heavy chain (KHC) an...
متن کاملOrexin receptor activation visualised by intramolecular FRET
Background: Orexin receptors are potential targets for the treatment of narcolepsy and insomnia. Results: Intramolecular FRET sensor forms of these receptors were functional and able to report the kinetics of agonist-mediated activation. Conclusions: The 33 amino acid peptide orexin A activates the receptors slowly. Significance: Such sensors provide a unique means to explore the kinetics of re...
متن کاملConformational dynamics of Cas9 governing DNA cleavage revealed by single molecule FRET
Off-target binding and cleavage by Cas9 pose as major challenges in its applications. How conformational dynamics of Cas9 governs its nuclease activity under onand offtarget conditions remains largely unknown. Here, using intra-molecular single molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer measurements, we revealed that Cas9 in apo, sgRNA-bound, and dsDNA/sgRNA-bound forms all spontaneously t...
متن کاملConformational dynamics of dynamin-like MxA revealed by single-molecule FRET
Human myxovirus resistance protein 1 (MxA) restricts a wide range of viruses and is closely related to the membrane-remodelling GTPase dynamin. The functions of MxA rely on domain rearrangements coupled with GTP hydrolysis cycles. To gain insight into this process, we studied real-time domain dynamics of MxA by single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer. We find that the GTPase doma...
متن کاملBcL-xL Conformational Changes upon Fragment Binding Revealed by NMR
Protein-protein interactions represent difficult but increasingly important targets for the design of therapeutic compounds able to interfere with biological processes. Recently, fragment-based strategies have been proposed as attractive approaches for the elaboration of protein-protein surface inhibitors from fragment-like molecules. One major challenge in targeting protein-protein interaction...
