WDSPdb: a database for WD40-repeat proteins

WD40-repeat proteins, as one of the largest protein families, often serve as platforms to assemble functional complexes through the hotspot residues on their domain surfaces, and thus play vital roles in many biological processes. Consequently, it is highly required for researchers who study WD40 proteins and protein-protein interactions to obtain structural information of WD40 domains. Systema...

Metacercarial proteins interacting with WD40-repeat protein of Clonorchis sinensis.

The WD40-repeat proteins serve as a platform coordinating partner proteins and are involved in a range of regulatory cellular functions. A WD40-repeat protein (CsWD1) of Clonorchis sinensis previously cloned is expressed stage-specifically in the tegumental syncytium of C. sinensis metacercariae. In the present study, interacting proteins with the CsWD1 protein was purified by immunoprecipitati...

RNA location and modeling of a WD40 repeat domain within the vault.

The vault complex is a ubiquitous 13-MDa ribonucleoprotein assembly, composed of three proteins (TEP1, 240 kDa; VPARP, 193 kDa; and MVP, 100 kDa) that are highly conserved in eukaryotes and an untranslated RNA (vRNA). The vault has been shown to affect multidrug resistance in cancer cells, and one particular component, MVP, is thought to play a role in the transport of drug from the nucleus. To...

A novel coiled-coil repeat variant in a class of bacterial cytoskeletal proteins.

In recent years, a number of bacterial coiled-coil proteins have been characterised which have roles in cell growth and morphology. Several have been shown to have a cytoskeletal function and some have been proposed to have an IF-like character in particular. We recently demonstrated in Streptomyces coelicolor a cytoskeletal role of Scy, a large protein implicated in filamentous growth, whose s...

Notchless encodes a novel WD40-repeat-containing protein that modulates Notch signaling activity.

Signaling by Notch family receptors is involved in many cell-fate decisions during development. Several modifiers of Notch activity have been identified, suggesting that regulation of Notch signaling is complex. In a genetic screen for modifiers of Notch activity, we identified a gene encoding a novel WD40-repeat protein. The gene is called Notchless, because loss-of-function mutant alleles dom...
