The field of protein dynamics and allosteric regulation explores how proteins, far from being rigid entities, exhibit a wide range of motions that are integral to their function. These molecular ...
The membrane protein complex between the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ -ATPase (SERCA) and phospholamban (PLN) controls Ca 2+ transport in cardiomyocytes, thereby modulating cardiac contractility.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 74, No. 7 (Jul., 1977), pp. 2766-2770 (5 pages) Escherichia coli glutamine synthetase and glycogen phosphorylase ...
Researchers at Yale say they used Google to help unravel the complex structure and regulation of enzymes. In a new study, “Eigenvector centrality for characterization of protein allosteric pathways,” ...
In a milestone for protein engineering, researchers have designed from scratch a protein that exhibits allosteric regulation. With allostery, binding at one site of a protein affects binding or ...
Chemistry professors used the Google algorithm PageRank to identify key amino acids in the regulation of a bacterial enzyme essential for most microorganisms. Yale scientists have taken a novel ...
Scientists have, for the first time, observed one of the natural mechanisms underlying the regulation of the levels of growth inhibiting hormone in plants. This mechanism had been hitherto seen in ...
