Peptidyl-prolyl isomerases: a new twist to transcription.
Peptidyl-prolyl isomerases (PPIs) catalyse the cis-trans isomerisation of peptide bonds N-terminal to proline residues in polypeptide chains. They have roles in the folding of newly synthesised proteins and in the function of the immune system. In addition, members of the parvulin-like family of PPIs have been implicated in cell cycle control. Their activity is directed by the prior phosphoryla...
متن کاملImmunophilins and parvulins. Superfamily of peptidyl prolyl isomerases in Arabidopsis.
Immunophilins are defined as receptors for immunosuppressive drugs including cyclosporin A, FK506, and rapamycin. The cyclosporin A receptors are referred to as cyclophilins (CYPs) and FK506- and rapamycin-binding proteins are abbreviated as FKBPs. These two groups of proteins (collectively called immunophilins) share little sequence homology, but both have peptidyl prolyl cis/trans isomerase (...
متن کاملPeptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases and transcription: is there a twist in the tail?
Eukaryotic transcription is regulated predominantly by the post-translational modification of the participating components. One such modification is the cis-trans isomerization of peptidyl-prolyl bonds, which results in a conformational change in the protein involved. Enzymes that carry out this reaction include the yeast peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase Ess1 and its human counterpart Pin1, ...
متن کاملMicrobial peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases): virulence factors and potential alternative drug targets.
Initially discovered in the context of immunomodulation, peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases) were soon identified as enzymes catalyzing the rate-limiting protein folding step at peptidyl bonds preceding proline residues. Intense searches revealed that PPIases are a superfamily of proteins consisting of three structurally distinguishable families with representatives in every describe...
متن کاملMycobacterium tuberculosis Peptidyl-Prolyl Isomerases Also Exhibit Chaperone like Activity In-Vitro and In-Vivo
Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases (Ppiases), also known as cyclophilins, are ubiquitously expressed enzymes that assist in protein folding by isomerization of peptide bonds preceding prolyl residues. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb) is known to possess two Ppiases, PpiA and PpiB. However, our understanding about the biological significance of mycobacterial Ppiases with respect to their plei...
