Stabilizing Protein-Protein-Interactions with Multivalent Ligands
Huntington’s disorder (HD) is one of the neurodegenerative disorders in which the polyglutamine (polyQ) tract of the protein huntingtin (htt) is found to be expanded. First exon of this mutant htt protein is found in the inclusions in the brain of the patient suffering from HD, which is the pathological hallmark of the disease1. Exon-1 of htt comprises of 17 amino acid long N-terminal helix (Nt...
متن کاملDiscovering Domains Mediating Protein Interactions
Background: Protein-protein interactions do not provide any direct information regarding the domains within the proteins that mediate the interactions. The majority of proteins are multi domain proteins and the interaction between them is often defined by the pairs of their domains. Most of the former studies focus only on interacting domain pairs. However they do not consider the in...
متن کاملProtein interactions and their importance
The "boom" in molecular interaction research that we have experienced in the past few years has been caused by the increasingly wide availability of high throughput technologies that can potentially provide information on several thousand pairwise interactions at a time 11 [2]. Such highthroughput studies can provide a global 'snapshot' of the molecular interactions that take place in a cell, a...
متن کاملContribution of hydrophobic interactions to protein stability.
Our goal was to gain a better understanding of the contribution of hydrophobic interactions to protein stability. We measured the change in conformational stability, Δ(ΔG), for hydrophobic mutants of four proteins: villin headpiece subdomain (VHP) with 36 residues, a surface protein from Borrelia burgdorferi (VlsE) with 341 residues, and two proteins previously studied in our laboratory, ribonu...
متن کاملModulation of protein-protein interactions by stabilizing/mimicking protein secondary structure elements.
In view of the crucial role of protein-protein intercommunication both in biological and pathological processes, the search of modulators of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) is currently a challenging issue. The development of rational strategies to imitate key secondary structure elements of protein interfaces is complementary to other approaches based on the screening of synthetic or virtu...
