Comparative Investigation of R213G Mutation in DNA-Binding Domain of P53 Protein via Molecular Dynamics Simulation

Introduction: P53 is a tumor suppressor protein with numerous missense mutations identified in its gene. These mutations are observed in a vast number of cancers. R213G is one of them which has a role in metastatic lung cancers. In this research, R213G was studied in comparison with the wild type via molecular dynamics simulation. Method: For the three-dimensional structure of the wild-type P53...

The papillomavirus E2 DNA binding domain.

The DNA binding domain of the E2 master regulator from papillomaviruses is the primary effector for most the essential activities controlled by this protein. In this review we focus on the properties of the DNA binding domain of human papillomavirus strain 16 in solution, integrating structure, dynamics, folding, stability, conformational equilibria, and DNA binding mechanism. We discuss the re...

Single-stranded DNA-binding proteins regulate the abundance of LIM domain and LIM domain-binding proteins.

The LIM domain-binding protein Ldb1 is an essential cofactor of LIM-homeodomain (LIM-HD) and LIM-only (LMO) proteins in development. The stoichiometry of Ldb1, LIM-HD, and LMO proteins is tightly controlled in the cell and is likely a critical determinant of their biological actions. Single-stranded DNA-binding proteins (SSBPs) were recently shown to interact with Ldb1 and are also important in...
