Local Conformational Changes in the DNA Interfaces of Proteins
When a protein binds to DNA, a conformational change is often induced so that the protein will fit into the DNA structure. Therefore, quantitative analyses were conducted to understand the conformational changes in proteins. The results showed that conformational changes in DNA interfaces are more frequent than in non-interfaces, and DNA interfaces have more conformational variations in the DNA...
متن کاملMeasuring Surface-Induced Conformational Changes in Proteins
Microfabricated cantilever sensors were used to measure the surface stress induced by protein adsorption onto a gold surface. Two proteins, immoglobulin G (IgG) and albumin (BSA), were studied. The change of surface stress upon adsorption of IgG was found to be compressive, whereas that of BSA was tensile. This difference is elucidated in terms of protein deformation and packing. Most stress ch...
متن کاملA novel method for identification of local conformational changes in proteins
Motivation: Proteins are known to undergo conformational changes in the course of their functions. The changes in conformation are often attributable to a small fraction of residues within the protein. Therefore identification of these variable regions is important for an understanding of protein function. Results: We propose a novel method for identification of local conformational changes in ...
متن کاملDNA and nucleotide-induced conformational changes in the Escherichia coli Rep and helicase II (UvrD) proteins.
The domain structures of the Escherichia coli Rep and Helicase II proteins and their ligand-dependent conformational changes have been examined by monitoring the sensitivity of these helicases to proteolysis by trypsin and chymotrypsin. Limited treatment of unliganded Rep protein (73 kDa) with trypsin results in cleavage at a single site in its carboxyl-terminal region, producing a 68-kDa polyp...
