Protein flexibility in solution and in crystals
Characterizing the inherent flexibility of a protein provides an important link between structure and function. In this article, we examine some of the methods used to determine protein flexibility, and address several unanswered questions relating to them. We perform 4 ns simulations of bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor !BPTI" in solution and in a crystal. For comparison, we also calculate a...
متن کاملMolecular evolution of protein O-fucosyltransferase genes and splice variants.
O-Fucose has been described on both epidermal growth factor-like (EGF-like) repeats and Thrombospondin type 1 repeats (TSRs). The enzyme adding fucose to EGF-like repeats, protein O-fucosyltransferase 1 (Pofut1), is a soluble protein located in the lumen of endoplasmic reticulum (ER). A second protein O-fucosyltransferase, Pofut2, quite divergent from its homolog Pofut1, has recently been shown...
متن کاملProtein O-fucosyltransferase 1 is an essential component of Notch signaling pathways.
Notch receptor signaling regulates cell growth and differentiation, and core components of Notch signaling pathways are conserved from Drosophila to humans. Fringe glycosyltransferases are crucial modulators of Notch signaling that act on epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like repeats in the Notch receptor extracellular domain. The substrate of Fringe is EGF-O-fucose and the transfer of fucose to N...
متن کاملProtein O-fucosyltransferase 1: a potential diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for human oral cancer.
Protein O-fucosyltransferase 1 (POFUT1) is the enzyme that adds O-fucose through O-glycosidic linkage to conserved serine or threonine residues in the epidermal growth factor-like repeats of a number of cellular surface and secreted proteins. Our previous study using microarray technology showed that significant upregulation of POFUT1 occurs in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC)-derived cell l...
متن کاملFucosyltransferase 1 mediates angiogenesis in rheumatoid arthritis.
OBJECTIVE To determine the role of α(1,2)-linked fucosylation of proteins by fucosyltransferase 1 (FUT1) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) angiogenesis. METHODS Analysis of α(1,2)-linked fucosylated proteins in synovial tissue (ST) samples was performed by immunohistologic staining. Expression of α(1,2)-linked fucosylated angiogenic chemokine in synovial fluid (SF) was determined by immunoprecipit...
