Mitotic Microtubule Crosslinkers: Insights from Mechanistic Studies
Mitosis depends on the mitotic spindle, a subcellular protein machine that uses dynamic microtubules and mitotic motors to assemble itself and to coordinate chromosome movements. Spindle function depends critically on the interplay of microtubule polymer dynamics and the motor proteins and non-motor microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) that crosslink adjacent microtubules. These microtubule c...
متن کاملChemical crosslinkers enhance detection of receptor interactomes
Receptor function is dependent on interaction with various intracellular proteins that ensure the localization and signaling of the receptor. While a number of approaches have been optimized for the isolation, purification, and proteomic characterization of receptor-protein interaction networks (interactomes) in cells, the capture of receptor interactomes and their dynamic properties remains a ...
متن کاملFunctional, metal-based crosslinkers for α-helix induction in short peptides.
Many protein-protein interactions that play a central role in cellular processes involve α-helical domains. Consequently, there has been great interest in developing strategies for stabilizing short peptides in α-helical conformations toward the inhibition and interrogation of protein-protein interactions. Here, we show that tridentate Hybrid Coordination Motifs (HCMs), which consist of a natur...
متن کاملMulti-responsive and tough hydrogels based on triblock copolymer micelles as multi-functional macro-crosslinkers.
Multi-stimuli responsive hydrogels are synthesized using self-assembled nanomicelles of Pluronic F127 diacrylate triblock copolymer as non-covalent macro-crosslinkers to in situ copolymerize with acrylamide and methyl chloride quaternized N,N-dimethylamino ethylacrylate monomers, generating positively charged hydrogels. These hydrogels showed high strength, toughness, and outstanding fatigue re...
متن کاملActin Crosslinkers: Repairing the Sense of Touch
Cells use actin bundles infused with myosin to exert contractile forces on the extracellular environment. This active tension is essential for cellular mechanosensation. Now, the role of actin crosslinkers in stabilizing and repairing the actin bundles is coming into clearer view.
