Structural basis for enzyme I inhibition by α-ketoglutarate.
Creating new bacterial strains in which carbon and nitrogen metabolism are uncoupled is potentially very useful for optimizing yields of microbial produced chemicals from renewable carbon sources. However, the mechanisms that balance carbon and nitrogen consumption in bacteria are poorly understood. Recently, α-ketoglutarate (αKG), the carbon substrate for ammonia assimilation, has been observe...
متن کاملStructural basis for spinophilin-neurabin receptor interaction.
Neurabin and spinophilin are neuronal scaffolding proteins that play important roles in the regulation of synaptic transmission through their ability to target protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) to dendritic spines where PP1 dephosphorylates and inactivates glutamate receptors. However, thus far, it is still unknown how neurabin and spinophilin themselves are targeted to these membrane receptors. Spin...
متن کاملStructural Basis for Specificity of Propeptide-Enzyme Interaction in Barley C1A Cysteine Peptidases
C1A cysteine peptidases are synthesized as inactive proenzymes. Activation takes place by proteolysis cleaving off the inhibitory propeptide. The inhibitory capacity of propeptides from barley cathepsin L and B-like peptidases towards commercial and barley cathepsins has been characterized. Differences in selectivity have been found for propeptides from L-cathepsins against their cognate and no...
متن کاملStructural and functional basis of cyclooxygenase inhibition.
Brief History. The use of medicinal substances for the treatment of pain and fever dates to ancient Egyptian and Grecian civilizations, where dried myrtle leaves or bitter extracts from the bark of poplar trees were used to treat back and abdominal pain. The Ebers papyrus from ancient Egypt (1850 B.C.) is the oldest preserved medical text and contains the first record documenting the use of pla...
متن کاملStructural basis of aquaporin inhibition by mercury.
The aquaporin family of channels was defined based on the inhibition of water transport by mercurial compounds. Despite the important role of mercurials, little is known about the structural changes involved upon mercury binding leading to channel inhibition. To elucidate the mechanism we designed a mutant, T183C, of aquaporin Z (AqpZ) patterned after the known mercury-sensitive site of aquapor...
