Protein Dynamics: From Structure to Function
Understanding protein function requires detailed knowledge about protein dynamics, i.e. the different conformational states the system can adopt. Despite substantial experimental progress, simulation techniques such as molecular dynamics (MD) currently provide the only routine means to obtain dynamical information at an atomic level on timescales of nanoto microseconds. Even with the current de...
متن کاملRegulation of ubiquitin ligase dynamics by the nucleolus
Cellular pathways relay information through dynamic protein interactions. We have assessed the kinetic properties of the murine double minute protein (MDM2) and von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) ubiquitin ligases in living cells under physiological conditions that alter the stability of their respective p53 and hypoxia-inducible factor substrates. Photobleaching experiments reveal that MDM2 and VHL are h...
متن کاملUpdate on the Nucleolus Nucleoli: Composition, Function, and Dynamics
The nucleus is a highly organized structure. However, unlike cytoplasmic organelles, nuclear substructures are not bounded by membranes, but rather are held together by interactions between their component proteins and nucleic acids, and are thus probably best regarded as giant, extended multimolecular complexes. The nucleolus is themost prominent of these structures. It is the site of transcri...
متن کاملThe Dynamics of Postmitotic Reassembly of the Nucleolus
Mammalian cell nucleoli disassemble at the onset of M-phase and reassemble during telophase. Recent studies showed that partially processed preribosomal RNA (pre-rRNA) is preserved in association with processing components in the perichromosomal regions (PRs) and in particles called nucleolus-derived foci (NDF) during mitosis. Here, the dynamics of nucleolar reassembly were examined for the fir...
متن کاملFrom structure to structural dynamics: Ahmed Zewail's legacy
In this brief tribute to Ahmed Zewail, we highlight and place in the historical context, several of the major achievements that he and his colleagues have made in Femtochemistry (of which he was the principal instigator) and his introduction of ultrafast electron scattering, diffraction, microscopy and spectroscopy. By achieving a sub-picosecond temporal resolution, coupled with a picometer spa...
