Phosphotyrosine-independent binding of a 62-kDa protein to the src homology 2 (SH2) domain of p56lck and its regulation by phosphorylation of Ser-59 in the lck unique N-terminal region

TL;DR: Phosphotyrosine-independent binding of p62 to the p56lck SH2 domain appears to provide an alternative pathway for p 56lck signaling that is regulated by Ser-59 phosphorylation.
Journal ArticleDOI

How Nature Morphs Peptide Scaffolds into Antibiotics

TL;DR: The conventional notion that peptides are poor candidates for orally available drugs because of protease‐sensitive peptide bonds, intrinsic hydrophilicity, and ionic charges contrasts with the diversity of antibiotic natural products with peptide‐based frameworks that are synthesized and utilized by Nature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Organomercurial lyase and mercuric ion reductase: nature's mercury detoxification catalysts

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the mechanisms by which bacteria cope with increased heavy metal burdens in the food chain and found that organometallics are especially toxic to higher organisms, whose lipophilic nature gives them a strong tendency toward bioaccumulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanistic studies of a protonolytic organomercurial cleaving enzyme: bacterial organomercurial lyase.

TL;DR: As the first well-characterized enzymatic reaction of an organometallic substrate and the first example of an enzyme-mediated SE2 reaction the organomercurial lyase catalyzed carbon-mercury bond cleavage provides an arena for investigating novel enzyme structure-function relationships.
Journal ArticleDOI

The residual enzymatic phosphorylation activity of hexokinase II mutants is correlated with glucose repression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

TL;DR: The results strongly support the hypothesis that the phosphorylation activity of hexokinase II is correlated with glucose repression.
