Multiple activation loop conformations and their regulatory properties in the insulin receptor's kinase domain.
Low catalytic efficiency of protein kinases often results from intrasteric inhibition caused by the activation loop blocking the active site. In the insulin receptor's kinase domain, Asp-1161 and Tyr-1162 in the peptide substrate-like sequence of the unphosphorylated activation loop can interact with four invariant residues in the active site: Lys-1085, Asp-1132, Arg-1136, and Gln-1208. Contrib...
متن کاملConformations and States
Activation of G-protein coupled receptors by agonists is thought to involve the stabilisation of a ternary complex of agonist/receptor/G-protein, leading to effector activation, but this mechanism may be an oversimplification, as follows: (a) Agonist binding to the free receptor (uncoupled from G-proteins) is not a neutral event, but includes a component of the activation process and may be des...
متن کاملConformations of Circular DNA
We examine the conformations of a model for short closed DNA. The molecule is represented as a cylindrically symmetric elastic string with a constraint corresponding to a specification of the linking number. We obtain analytic expressions for configuration, elastic energy, twist and linking number for a family of solutions spanning from a circle to a ’figure eight’. We suggest ways to use our c...
متن کاملConformations of Organophosphine Oxides.
The conformations of a series of organophosphine oxides, OP(CH3)2R, where R = methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, tert-butyl, vinyl, and phenyl, are predicted using the MP2/cc-pVTZ level of theory. Comparison of potential energy surfaces for rotation about P-C bonds with crystal structure data reveals a strong correlation between predicted location and energetics of minima and histograms of dihedral angl...
متن کاملConformations of confined biopolymers.
Nanoscale and microscale confinement of biopolymers naturally occurs in cells and has been recently achieved in artificial structures designed for nanotechnological applications. Here, we present an extensive theoretical investigation of the conformations and shape of a biopolymer with varying stiffness confined to a narrow channel. Combining scaling arguments, analytical calculations, and Mont...
