Tandem Domains with Tuned Interactions Are a Powerful Biological Design Principle
Allosteric effects of mutations, ligand binding, or post-translational modifications on protein function occur through changes to the protein's shape, or conformation. In a cell, there are many copies of the same protein, all experiencing these perturbations in a dynamic fashion and fluctuating through different conformations and activity states. According to the "conformational selection and p...

متن کاملBiForce Toolbox: powerful high-throughput computational analysis of gene–gene interactions in genome-wide association studies
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have discovered many loci associated with common disease and quantitative traits. However, most GWAS have not studied the gene-gene interactions (epistasis) that could be important in complex trait genetics. A major challenge in analysing epistasis in GWAS is the enormous computational demands of analysing billions of SNP combinations. Several methods have...
متن کاملDynamic kinetic capillary isoelectric focusing: a powerful tool for studying protein-DNA interactions.
A new method called dynamic kinetic capillary isoelectric focusing (DK-CIEF) is presented for the study of protein-DNA interactions. The method is based on CIEF with laser-induced fluorescence-whole column imaging detection in which protein-DNA complexes are separated with spatial resolution while dissociations of the complexes are dynamically monitored using a CCD camera with temporal resoluti...
متن کاملGenome-environment interactions that modulate aging: powerful targets for drug discovery.
Aging is the major biomedical challenge of this century. The percentage of elderly people, and consequently the incidence of age-related diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases, is projected to increase considerably in the coming decades. Findings from model organisms have revealed that aging is a surprisingly plastic process that can be manipulated by both geneti...
