Protein conformational changes in the bacteriorhodopsin photocycle.
We report a comprehensive electron crystallographic analysis of conformational changes in the photocycle of wild-type bacteriorhodopsin and in a variety of mutant proteins with kinetic defects in the photocycle. Specific intermediates that accumulate in the late stages of the photocycle of wild-type bacteriorhodopsin, the single mutants D38R, D96N, D96G, T46V, L93A and F219L, and the triple mut...
متن کاملConformational changes associated with protein-protein interactions.
Motions related to protein-protein binding events can be surveyed from the perspective of the Database of Macromolecular Movements. There are a number of alternative conceptual models that describe these events, particularly induced fit and pre-existing equilibrium. There is evidence for both alternatives from recent studies of conformational change. However, there is increasing support for the...
متن کاملConformational changes in ribosomes during protein synthesis.
In a purified system containing poly(U) and ribosomal subunits from Escherichia coli, and purified transfer factors T and G, the active ribosomal complex passes through a cycle of contraction and expansion with the addition of each amino acid; aminoacyl-tRNA binding catalyzed by T produces the stable compact state, corresponding to the 70S conformation, whereas translocation with G expands the ...
متن کاملProtein Stability, Folding, Disaggregation and Etiology of Conformational Malfunctions
Estimation of protein stability is important for many reasons: first providing an understanding of the basic thermodynamics of the process of folding, protein engineering, and protein stability plays important role in biotechnology especially in food and protein drug design. Today, proteins are used in many branches, including industrial processes, pharmaceutical industry, and medical fields. A...
متن کاملOsmolyte-induced changes in protein conformational equilibria.
Examining solute-induced changes in protein conformational equilibria is a long-standing method for probing the role of water in maintaining protein stability. Interpreting the molecular details governing the solute-induced effects, however, remains controversial. We present experimental and theoretical data for osmolyte-induced changes in the stabilities of the A and N states of yeast iso-1-fe...
