Journal ArticleDOI

Design of a Novel Globular Protein Fold with Atomic-Level Accuracy

TL;DR: A general computational strategy that iterates between sequence design and structure prediction to design a 93-residue α/β protein called Top7 with a novel sequence and topology, found experimentally to be folded and extremely stable.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein-protein docking with simultaneous optimization of rigid-body displacement and side-chain conformations.

TL;DR: A new method to predict protein-protein complexes from the coordinates of the unbound monomer components using a low-resolution, rigid-body, Monte Carlo search followed by simultaneous optimization of backbone displacement and side-chain conformations using Monte Carlo minimization is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

A genetically encoded photoactivatable Rac controls the motility of living cells

TL;DR: A new approach to produce genetically encoded photoactivatable derivatives of Rac1, a key GTPase regulating actin cytoskeletal dynamics in metazoan cells, which was shown to inhibit RhoA in mouse embryonic fibroblasts, with inhibition modulated at protrusions and ruffles.
