Protein Multifunctionality: Principles and Mechanisms
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the review, the nature of protein multifunctionality is analyzed. In the first part of the review the principles of structural/functional organization of protein are discussed. In the second part, the main mechanisms involved in development of multiple functions on a single gene product(s) are analyzed. The last part represents a number of examples showing that multifunctionality is a basic feature of biologically active proteins.

Multifunctionality: a fundamental property of behavior mechanisms based on dynamical systems
The mechanisms supporting robot behaviors are increasingly often designed as dynamical systems. Such mechanisms are inherently multifunctional. This means that they can exhibit different qualitative behavior in different circumstances. Multifunctionality makes system design difficult. On the other hand, it may be beneficial for adaptiveness, since it allows qualitative changes in a robot’s beha...
متن کاملThe Effect of Agricultural Production Subsidies Reduction in the Economic Variables of Agricultural Sector of Iran: Multifunctional Assessment in CGE Model
The production of public goods like amenity value of the landscape, food security, preservation of rural communities and rural lifestyle, by agricultural sector is a subject that has been widely accepted by experts. However, in many policies and political analyses carried out, solely the production of private goods by the agricultural sector is paid attention and the important function of publi...
متن کاملJack-of-all-trades effects drive biodiversity-ecosystem multifunctionality relationships in European forests.
There is considerable evidence that biodiversity promotes multiple ecosystem functions (multifunctionality), thus ensuring the delivery of ecosystem services important for human well-being. However, the mechanisms underlying this relationship are poorly understood, especially in natural ecosystems. We develop a novel approach to partition biodiversity effects on multifunctionality into three me...
متن کاملFoundation species' overlap enhances biodiversity and multifunctionality from the patch to landscape scale in southeastern United States salt marshes.
Although there is mounting evidence that biodiversity is an important and widespread driver of ecosystem multifunctionality, much of this research has focused on small-scale biodiversity manipulations. Hence, which mechanisms maintain patches of enhanced biodiversity in natural systems and if these patches elevate ecosystem multifunctionality at both local and landscape scales remain outstandin...
متن کاملChaperone-client interactions: Non-specificity engenders multifunctionality.
Here, we provide an overview of the different mechanisms whereby three different chaperones, Spy, Hsp70, and Hsp60, interact with folding proteins, and we discuss how these chaperones may guide the folding process. Available evidence suggests that even a single chaperone can use many mechanisms to aid in protein folding, most likely due to the need for most chaperones to bind clients promiscuou...
