Structural and mechanistic insights into Mps1 kinase activation
Mps1 is one of the several essential kinases whose activation is required for robust mitotic spindle checkpoint signalling. The activity of Mps1 is tightly regulated and increases dramatically during mitosis or in response to spindle damage. To understand the molecular mechanism underlying Mps1 regulation, we determined the crystal structure of the kinase domain of Mps1. The 2.7-A-resolution cr...
متن کاملStructural and mechanistic insights into Helicobacter pylori NikR activation
NikR is a transcriptional metalloregulator central in the mandatory response to acidity of Helicobacter pylori that controls the expression of numerous genes by binding to specific promoter regions. NikR/DNA interactions were proposed to rely on protein activation by Ni(II) binding to high-affinity (HA) and possibly secondary external (X) sites. We describe a biochemical characterization of HpN...
متن کاملNanoparticles for heterogeneous catalysis: new mechanistic insights.
Metallic nanoparticles finely dispersed over oxide supports have found use as heterogeneous catalysts in many industries including chemical manufacturing, energy-related applications and environmental remediation. The compositional and structural complexity of such nanosized systems offers many degrees of freedom for tuning their catalytic properties. However, fully rational design of heterogen...
متن کاملMechanistic insights from reversible splicing catalysis.
Recent work demonstrating the ability of spliceosomes purified after the second catalytic step of splicing to efficiently reverse both steps of the reaction provides answers to several unresolved questions regarding the splicing reaction, and raises many more.
متن کاملMechanistic Insights into Hsp104 Potentiation.
Potentiated variants of Hsp104, a protein disaggregase from yeast, can dissolve protein aggregates connected to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. However, the mechanisms underlying Hsp104 potentiation remain incompletely defined. Here, we establish that 2-3 subunits of the Hsp104 hexamer must bear an A503V potentiating mutation to elicit enh...
