Ion Binding Properties of the Dehydrin ERD14 Are Dependent upon Phosphorylation
TL;DR: The results suggest that the polyserine (S) domain is most likely the site of phosphorylation in ERD14 responsible for the activation of calcium binding, and it is likely that this protein might be modulated by cold-regulated kinases or phosphatases.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Calcium-Binding Activity of a Vacuole-Associated, Dehydrin-Like Protein Is Regulated by Phosphorylation
Bruce J. Heyen,Muath K. Alsheikh,Elizabeth A. Smith,Carl F. Torvik,Darren F. Seals,Stephen K. Randall +5 more
TL;DR: VCaB45 is an “in vitro” substrate of casein kinase II (a ubiquitous eukaryotic kinase), the phosphorylation resulting in a partial activation of calcium-binding activity suggesting potential functions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design and testing of an assessment instrument to measure understanding of protein structure and enzyme inhibition in a new context.
Sachel M. Villafañe,Bruce J. Heyen,Jennifer E. Lewis,Jennifer Loertscher,Vicky Minderhout,Tracey Arnold Murray +5 more
TL;DR: The results from this assessment can give instructors insight into the ways in which persistent incorrect or incomplete ideas related to protein structure and binding events can hinder knowledge application.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design and Implementation of a Tool to Assess Students’ Understanding of Metabolic Pathways Dynamics and Regulation
Sachel M. Villafañe,Vicky Minderhout,Bruce J. Heyen,Jennifer E. Lewis,Andrew Manley,Tracey Arnold Murray,Heather L. Tienson-Tseng,Jennifer Loertscher +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a course-based instrument was developed to assess undergraduate students' understanding of metabolic pathway dynamic dynamics. Butte et al. describe a biochemistry educator community-driven effort to design and implement a course based instrument to assess student's understanding of pathway dynamic properties.
