Dynamic allostery of protein alpha helical coiled-coils.
Alpha helical coiled-coils appear in many important allosteric proteins such as the dynein molecular motor and bacteria chemotaxis transmembrane receptors. As a mechanism for transmitting the information of ligand binding to a distant site across an allosteric protein, an alternative to conformational change in the mean static structure is an induced change in the pattern of the internal dynami...
متن کاملA novel chimeric recombinant protein PDHB-P80 of Mycoplasma agalactiae as a potential diagnostic tool
The aim of this study was to construct, expression of a novel recombinant chimeric protein consisting of Pyruvate dehydrogenase beta subunit (PDHB) and high antigenic region of integral membrane lipoprotein P80 of Mycoplasma agalactiae as a potential diagnostic tool. The full-length sequence of pdhb and a portion of antigenic regions of P80 were selected and analyzed by CLC ma...
متن کاملα/β coiled coils
Coiled coils are the best-understood protein fold, as their backbone structure can uniquely be described by parametric equations. This level of understanding has allowed their manipulation in unprecedented detail. They do not seem a likely source of surprises, yet we describe here the unexpected formation of a new type of fiber by the simple insertion of two or six residues into the underlying ...
متن کاملDNA coiled coils.
We report the coiled-coil structure of DNA, which is generated by the dodecanucleotide d(ATATATATATAT). The structure has been determined by single-crystal x-ray crystallography. The molecules form duplexes with single-stranded overhangs, which associate with neighbor molecules and give rise to infinite double helices in a coiled-coil conformation, with staggered nicks in both strands. The coil...
متن کاملAssociation of polyalanine and polyglutamine coiled coils mediates expansion disease-related protein aggregation and dysfunction
The expansion of homopolymeric glutamine (polyQ) or alanine (polyA) repeats in certain proteins owing to genetic mutations induces protein aggregation and toxicity, causing at least 18 human diseases. PolyQ and polyA repeats can also associate in the same proteins, but the general extent of their association in proteomes is unknown. Furthermore, the structural mechanisms by which their expansio...
