Imaging membrane protein helical wheels.
Resonance patterns have been observed in 2D solid-state NMR spectra of the transmembrane segment of M2 protein from Influenza A virus in oriented samples reflecting the helical wheel of this alpha-helix. The center of this pattern uniquely defines the helical tilt with respect to the bilayer normal without a need for resonance assignments. The distribution of resonances from amino acid specific...
متن کاملHelical membrane protein folding, stability, and evolution.
Helical membrane protein folding and oligomerization can be usefully conceptualized as involving two energetically distinct stages-the formation and subsequent side-to-side association of independently stable transbilayer helices. The interactions of helices with the bilayer, with prosthetic groups, and with each other are examined in the context of recent evidence. We conclude that the two-sta...
متن کاملExploring polymorphisms in B-DNA helical conformations
The traditional mesoscopic paradigm represents DNA as a series of base-pair steps whose energy response to equilibrium perturbations is elastic, with harmonic oscillations (defining local stiffness) around a single equilibrium conformation. In addition, base sequence effects are often analysed as a succession of independent XpY base-pair steps (i.e. a nearest-neighbour (NN) model with only 10 u...
متن کاملIntegrated prediction of the helical membrane protein interactome in yeast.
At least a quarter of all genes in most genomes contain putative transmembrane (TM) helices, and helical membrane protein interactions are a major component of the overall cellular interactome. However, current experimental techniques for large-scale detection of protein-protein interactions are biased against membrane proteins. Here, we define protein-protein interaction broadly as co-complexa...
متن کاملAlignment of Helical Membrane Protein Sequences Using AlignMe
Few sequence alignment methods have been designed specifically for integral membrane proteins, even though these important proteins have distinct evolutionary and structural properties that might affect their alignments. Existing approaches typically consider membrane-related information either by using membrane-specific substitution matrices or by assigning distinct penalties for gap creation ...
