Association with PAK2 Enables Functional Interactions of Lentiviral Nef Proteins with the Exocyst Complex
UNLABELLED Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Nef enhances virus replication and contributes to immune evasion in vivo, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain incompletely defined. Nef interferes with host cell actin dynamics to restrict T lymphocyte responses to chemokine stimulation and T cell receptor engagement. This relies on the assembly of a labile multiprotein complex i...
متن کاملElectronic-conformational Interactions in Proteins
The functionality of biopolymers and of the supermolecular structures in biology depends strongly on the interactions between electronic excitations and the shifts of the electronic density with the conformational changes in these systems. The study of the electronic—conformational interactions can help to form the physical theory of enzymatic activity and of the other biomolecular phenomena. T...
متن کاملModularity of the Hrd1 ERAD complex underlies its diverse client range
Secretory protein folding is monitored by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) quality control mechanisms. Misfolded proteins are retained and targeted to ER-associated degradation (ERAD) pathways. At their core are E3 ubiquitin ligases, which organize factors that recognize, ubiquitinate, and translocate substrates. Of these, we report that the Hrd1 complex manages three distinct substrate classes. A co...
متن کاملProtein Conformational Flexibility Enables the Formation of Dense Liquid Clusters: Tests Using Solution Shear.
According to recently proposed two-step nucleation mechanisms, crystal nuclei form within preexisting dense liquid clusters. Clusters with radii about 100 nm, which capture from 10(-7) to 10(-3) of the total protein, have been observed with numerous proteins and shown to host crystal nucleation. Theories aiming to understand the mesoscopic size and small protein fraction held in the clusters ha...
متن کاملA Structure-free Method for Quantifying Conformational Flexibility in proteins
All proteins sample a range of conformations at physiologic temperatures and this inherent flexibility enables them to carry out their prescribed functions. A comprehensive understanding of protein function therefore entails a characterization of protein flexibility. Here we describe a novel approach for quantifying a protein's flexibility in solution using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) d...
