PCS-based structure determination of protein–protein complexes

PCS-based structure determination of protein–protein complexes

A simple and fast nuclear magnetic resonance method for docking proteins using pseudo-contact shift (PCS) and (1)H(N)/(15)N chemical shift perturbation is presented. PCS is induced by a paramagnetic lanthanide ion that is attached to a target protein using a lanthanide binding peptide tag anchored at two points. PCS provides long-range (approximately 40 A) distance and angular restraints betwee...

Determination of Trimethoprim Based on Charge-Transfer Complexes Formation

A spectrophotometric study concerning the interaction between Trimethoprim (TMP) ,Sulfamethoxazole (SFMx), as n-donor and 2,3-dichloro-5,6- dicyano-P-benzoquinine (DDQ) and chloranilic acid (CA) as π-acceptor were been performed at 25°C. The results of interaction of CA and DDQwith TMP indicate the formation of a 1:1, 1:2, charge transfer complexes through non equilibrium reactions. In the case...

Synthesis, Characterization and Crystal Structure Determination of Copper (II) Complexes with 2,2′-Dimethyl-4,4′-bithiazole

Copper(II)  complex  [Cu(dmbt)2(H2O)](ClO4)2 (1)  was  prepared  from  the  reaction  of  copper(II) perchlorate  hexahydrate  with  2,2'-dimethyl-4,4'-bithiazole  (dmbt)  ligand  in  methanol  at  ambient temperature. The complex was quantitatively and qualitatively characterized by elemental analysis, absorption  and  infrared  spectrometries.  Complex  [Cu(DMSO)5](ClO4)2 (2)  was  also  synt...

A method for integrative structure determination of protein-protein complexes

MOTIVATION Structural characterization of protein interactions is necessary for understanding and modulating biological processes. On one hand, X-ray crystallography or NMR spectroscopy provide atomic resolution structures but the data collection process is typically long and the success rate is low. On the other hand, computational methods for modeling assembly structures from individual compo...
