Structural context shapes the aquaporin selectivity filter.
Aquaporins are transmembrane channels that facilitate the permeation of water and small, uncharged amphipathic molecules across cellular membranes. One distinct aquaporin subfamily contains pure water channels, whereas a second subfamily contains channels that conduct small alditols such as glycerol, in addition to water. Distinction between these substrates is central to aquaporin function, th...
متن کاملRetroviral integrase superfamily: the structural perspective.
The retroviral integrase superfamily (RISF) comprises numerous important nucleic acid-processing enzymes, including transposases, integrases and various nucleases. These enzymes are involved in a wide range of processes such as transposition, replication and repair of DNA, homologous recombination, and RNA-mediated gene silencing. Two out of the four enzymes that are encoded by the human immuno...
متن کاملThe SUPERFAMILY database in structural genomics.
The SUPERFAMILY hidden Markov model library representing all proteins of known structure predicts the domain architecture of protein sequences and classifies them at the SCOP superfamily level. This analysis has been carried out on all completely sequenced genomes. The ways in which the database can be useful to crystallographers is discussed, in particular with a view to high-throughput struct...
متن کاملStructural, Optical and Defect State Analyses of ZnO Nanoparticle Films
Synthesis of ZnO nanostructures films by a co-precipitation followed by the deposition processed onto a glass substrate by spin-coating technique was carried out. The effect of annealing temperatures (from 250 to 325 °C for 30 min) on the structural and optical properties of the ZnO films have been investigated. The structural studies reveal that ZnO films are polycrystalline with hexagonal wur...
