- The Crystal Structure of the alpha-Neurexin-1 Extracellular Region Reveals a Hinge Point for Mediating Synaptic Adhesion and Function
[作者:Miller, MT; Mileni, M; Comoletti, D; Stevens, RC; Harel, M; Taylori, P,期刊:Structure, 页码:767-778 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年19-6]
- alpha- and beta-neurexins (NRXNs) are transmembrane cell adhesion proteins that localize to presynaptic membranes in neurons and interact with the postsynaptic neuroligins (NLGNs). Their gene mutations are associated wit...
- Implications for Damage Recognition during Dpo4-Mediated Mutagenic Bypass of m1G and m3C Lesions
[作者:Rechkoblit, O; Delaney, JC; Essigmann, JM; Patel, DJ,期刊:Structure, 页码:821-832 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年19-6]
- DNA is susceptible to alkylation damage by a number of environmental agents that modify the Watson-Crick edge of the bases. Such lesions, if not repaired, may be bypassed by Y-family DNA polymerases. The bypass polymeras...
- Structural Basis for Catalytic Activation of a Serine Recombinase
[作者:Keenholtz, RA; Rowland, SJ; Boocock, MR; Stark, WM; Rice, PA,期刊:Structure, 页码:799-809 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年19-6]
- Sin resolvase is a site-specific serine recombinase that is normally controlled by a complex regulatory mechanism. A single mutation, Q115R, allows the enzyme to bypass the entire regulatory apparatus, such that no acces...
- Hierarchical Binding of Cofactors to the AAA ATPase p97
[作者:Hanzelmann, P; Buchberger, A; Schindelin, H,期刊:Structure, 页码:833-843 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年19-6]
- The hexameric AAA ATPase p97 is involved in several human proteinopathies and mediates ubiquitin-dependent protein degradation among other essential cellular processes. Via its N-terminal domain (N domain), p97 interacts...
- A Smoothed Backbone-Dependent Rotamer Library for Proteins Derived from Adaptive Kernel Density Estimates and Regressions
[作者:Shapovalov, MV; Dunbrack, RL,期刊:Structure, 页码:844-858 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年19-6]
- Rotamer libraries are used in protein structure determination, prediction, and design. The backbone-dependent rotamer library consists of rotamer frequencies, mean dihedral angles, and variances as a function of the back...
- The Cap-Binding Translation Initiation Factor, elF4E, Binds a Pseudoknot in a Viral Cap-Independent Translation Element
[作者:Wang, ZH; Parisien, M; Scheets, K; Miller, WA,期刊:Structure, 页码:868-880 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年19-6]
- Eukaryotic initiation factor elF4E performs a key early step in translation by specifically recognizing the m 7 GpppN cap structure at the 5' end of cellular mRNAs. Many viral mRNAs lack a 5' cap and thus bypass elF4E. I...
- A Systematic Study of the Energetics Involved in Structural Changes upon Association and Connectivity in Protein Interaction Networks
[作者:Stein, A; Rueda, M; Panjkovich, A; Orozco, M; Aloy, P,期刊:Structure, 页码:881-889 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2011年19-6]
- The study of protein binding mechanisms is a major topic of research in structural biology. Here, we implement a combination of metrics to systematically assess the cost of backbone conformational changes that protein do...
