Oxidative Protein Folding Is Driven by the Electron Transport System
Disulfide bond formation is catalyzed in vivo by DsbA and DsbB. Here we reconstitute this oxidative folding system using purified components. We have found the sources of oxidative power for protein folding and show how disulfide bond formation is linked to cellular metabolism. We find that disulfide bond formation and the electron transport chain are directly coupled. DsbB uses quinones as ele...
متن کاملSecretion of a bacterial virulence factor is driven by the folding of a C-terminal segment.
Autotransporters are bacterial virulence factors consisting of an N-terminal "passenger domain" that is secreted in a C- to-N-terminal direction and a C-terminal "β domain" that resides in the outer membrane (OM). Although passenger domain secretion does not appear to use ATP, the energy source for this reaction is unknown. Here, we show that efficient secretion of the passenger domain of the E...
متن کاملThe inverse autotransporter intimin exports its passenger domain via a hairpin intermediate.
Autotransporter proteins comprise a large family of virulence factors that consist of a β-barrel translocation unit and an extracellular effector or passenger domain. The β-barrel anchors the protein to the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria and facilitates the transport of the passenger domain onto the cell surface. By inserting an epitope tag into the N terminus of the passenger domain ...
متن کاملIs stoichiometry-driven protein folding getting out of thermodynamic control?
The views on protein folding have evolved from simple force-driven folding (3), i.e., the sum of many different small interactions (such as van der Waals interactions, hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonds, electrostatic interactions and ion pairs), to complex, free energy-driven “folding funnel” model (4) based on the energy landscape theory of protein folding (5). The latter is essentially...

در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
