Random encounters between proteins in crowded cells are by no means passive, but found to be under selective control. This control enables proteome solubility, helps to optimise the diffusive search for interaction partners, and allows for ...
Crystal structure of MOA in complex with a peptide fragment: A protease caught in flagranti [0.03%]

The Marasmius oreades agglutinin (MOA) is the holotype of an emerging family of fungal chimerolectins and an active Ca2+/Mn2+-dependent protease, which exhibits a unique papain-like fold with special active site features. Here we investigat...
Isoelectric point-amyloid formation of α-synuclein extends the generality of the solubility and supersaturation-limited mechanism [0.03%]
α-突触核蛋白等电点-淀粉样形成扩展了溶解度和过饱和限制机制的普遍性

Koki Furukawa et al.
Proteins in either a native or denatured conformation often aggregate at an isoelectric point (pI), a phenomenon known as pI precipitation. However, only a few studies have addressed the role of pI precipitation in amyloid formation, the cr...

Archaebacterial and eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (EF-2) and bacterial elongation factor G (EF-G) are five domain GTPases that catalyze the ribosomal translocation of tRNA and mRNA. In the classical mechanism of activation, GTPases are swi...
Structures of teixobactin-producing nonribosomal peptide synthetase condensation and adenylation domains [0.03%]
产生teixobactin的非核糖体肽合成酶缩合和腺苷酰化结构域的结构

Kemin Tan et al.
The recently discovered antibiotic teixobactin is produced by uncultured soil bacteria. The antibiotic inhibits cell wall synthesis of Gram-positive bacteria by binding to precursors of cell wall building blocks, and therefore it is thought...
