DOI: 10.1016/j.csbj.2021.06.041
Abstract: Viruses often encode proteins that mimic host proteins in order to facilitate infection. Little work has been done to understand the potential mimicry of the SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV, and MERS-CoV spike proteins, particularly the receptor-binding motifs,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1091/mbc.e18-08-0534
Abstract: Lipid droplets (LDs) in all eukaryotic cells are coated with at least one of the perilipin (Plin) family of proteins. They all regulate key intracellular lipases but do so to significantly different extents. Where more… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/femsle/fnz252
Abstract: Many flavoproteins belonging to three domain types contain an FMN residue linked through a phosphoester bond to a threonine or serine residue found in a conserved seven-residue motif. The flavinylation reaction is catalyzed by a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/nar/gky027
Abstract: Abstract In some dimeric cases of transcription factor (TF) binding, the specificity of dimeric motifs has been observed to differ notably from what would be expected were the two factors to bind to DNA independently… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12859-017-1561-8
Abstract: BackgroundRNAs play key roles in cells through the interactions with proteins known as the RNA-binding proteins (RBP) and their binding motifs enable crucial understanding of the post-transcriptional regulation of RNAs. How the RBPs correctly recognize… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fchem.2023.1107400
Abstract: Integrins in the cell surface interact with functional motifs found in the extracellular matrix (ECM) that queue the cell for biological actions such as migration, adhesion, or growth. Multiple fibrous proteins such as collagen or… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2021.647449
Abstract: Accumulating evidence has suggested that tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs) could be loaded to Argonaute proteins and function as regulatory small RNAs. However, their mode of action remains largely unknown, and investigations of their binding mechanisms have… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2018.00372
Abstract: Auxin signaling is finalized by activator auxin response factors (aARFs) that are released from Auxin/Indole-3-Acetic Acid (Aux/IAA) repressors and directly activate auxin-responsive genes. However, it remains to be answered how repressor ARFs (rARFs) exert their… read more here.
