Published in 2024 at "Protein Science"

DOI: 10.1002/pro.5089

Abstract: D‐3‐phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) catalyzes the NAD+‐dependent conversion of D‐3‐phospho‐glycerate to 3‐phosphohydroxypyruvate, the first step in the phosphorylated pathway for L‐serine (L‐Ser) biosynthesis. L‐Ser plays different relevant metabolic roles in eukaryotic cells: alterations in L‐Ser metabolism… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Methods in molecular biology"

DOI: 10.1007/978-1-4939-9030-6_30

Abstract: This paper takes the cue from the previously solved crystal structure of human apo-S100Z and compares it with that of the calcium-bound S100Z from zebrafish in order to stress, for this particular S100, the significant… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Reproductive biology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.repbio.2018.01.005

Abstract: CatSper is a voltage-dependent calcium channel located in the plasma membrane of the sperm flagellum and is responsible for triggering hyperactive motility. A homology model for the transmembrane region was built in which the arrangement… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "ACS chemical biology"

DOI: 10.1021/acschembio.5c00347

Abstract: Lectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that have enormous therapeutic value because of their potent antiviral activity. However, the design of lectins for targeted intervention is marred by our poor understanding of protein-glycan recognition. Here, we focus… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Molecular Biology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msad070

Abstract: Abstract It has been recently suggested that a significant fraction of homomer protein–protein interfaces evolve neutrally, without contributing to function, due to a hydrophobic bias in missense mutations. However, the fraction of such gratuitous complexes… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Journal of the Endocrine Society"

DOI: 10.1210/js.2019-or26-6

Abstract: Abstract The multimeric structure adopted by transcription factor complexes at their genomic sites of interaction is a longstanding problem in transcription biology. Information bearing on this question is often inferred from indirect data sources. Most… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "PLoS Computational Biology"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1006886

Abstract: The self-assembly of proteins into protein quaternary structures is of fundamental importance to many biological processes, and protein misassembly is responsible for a wide range of proteopathic diseases. In recent years, abstract lattice models of… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "PLoS ONE"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0180052

Abstract: The first enzyme of the shikimate pathway, 3-deoxy-D-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthase (DAH7PS), adopts a range of distinct allosteric regulation mechanisms in different organisms, related to different quaternary assemblies. DAH7PS from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MtuDAH7PS) is a homotetramer,… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "PLOS One"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0315992

Abstract: The structural analysis of catechol 1,2 dioxygenase from Stutzerimonas frequens GOM2, SfC12DO, was conducted using various structural techniques. SEC-SAXS experiments revealed that SfC12DO, after lyophilization and reconstitution processes, can form multiple enzymatically active oligomers, including… read more here.
