Temperature compensation via cooperative stability in protein degradation
Temperature compensation is a notable property of circadian oscillators that indicates the insensitivity of the oscillator system’s period to temperature changes; the underlying mechanism, however, is still unclear. We investigated the influence of protein dimerization and cooperative stability in protein degradation on the temperature compensation ability of two oscillators. Here, cooperative ...
متن کاملThe relationship between FRQ-protein stability and temperature compensation in the Neurospora circadian clock.
Temperature compensation is an important property of all biological clocks. In Neurospora crassa, negative-feedback regulation on the frequency (frq) gene's transcription by the FRQ protein plays a central role in the organism's circadian pacemaker. Earlier model calculations predicted that the stability of FRQ should determine the period length of Neurospora's circadian rhythm as well as the r...
متن کاملOncogenes & Tumor Suppressors ARF Regulates the Stability of p16 Protein Via REGg- Dependent Proteasome Degradation
The cell-cycle regulatory gene INK4A-ARF (CDKN2A) has two alternative transcripts that produce entirely different proteins, namely p14 and p16, which have complementary functions as regulators of p53 and pRB tumor suppressor pathways, respectively. The unusual organization of INK4A-ARF has long led to speculation of a need for coordinated regulation of p14 and p16.We now show that p14 (ARF) reg...
متن کاملStructural basis of PROTAC cooperative recognition for selective protein degradation
Inducing macromolecular interactions with small molecules to activate cellular signaling is a challenging goal. PROTACs (proteolysis-targeting chimeras) are bifunctional molecules that recruit a target protein in proximity to an E3 ubiquitin ligase to trigger protein degradation. Structural elucidation of the key ternary ligase-PROTAC-target species and its impact on target degradation selectiv...
متن کاملConnecting high-temperature and low-temperature protein stability and aggregation
Protein aggregation is a long-standing problem for preservation of proteins in both laboratory settings and for commercial biotechnology products. It is well established that heating (cooling) can accelerate (slow) aggregation by populating (depopulating) unfolded or partially unfolded monomer states that are key intermediates in aggregation processes. However, there is a long-standing question...
