Structure of human lactoferrin: Crystallographic structure analysis and refinement at 2·8 Å resolution

TL;DR: The structure of human lactoferrin has been refined crystallographically at 2.8 A (1 A = 0.1 nm) resolution using restrained least squares methods, and details of the secondary structure and tertiary interactions have been clarified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ferritin: Design and Formation of an Iron-Storage Molecule

TL;DR: The structure of horse spleen apoferritin, which has recently been refined, consists of 24 symmetrically related subunits forming a near-spherical hollow shell, and the protein influences both the rate of FeII-oxidation and the form of oxide produced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular basis of triclosan activity

TL;DR: It is found that triclosan acts as a site-directed, very potent inhibitor of the enzyme by mimicking its natural substrate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequence, structure and activity of phosphoglycerate kinase: a possible hinge-bending enzyme.

TL;DR: The fitting of sequenced peptides to a high-resolution X-ray map of phosphoglycerate kinase has yielded the complete sequence and structure of the horse muscle enzyme.
Journal ArticleDOI

The structure of Pyrococcus furiosus glutamate dehydrogenase reveals a key role for ion-pair networks in maintaining enzyme stability at extreme temperatures

TL;DR: The structure determination of glutamate dehydrogenase from P. furiosus contains a striking series of ion-pair networks on the surface of the protein subunits and buried at both interdomain and intersubunit interfaces, which suggest that the formation of such extended networks may represent a major stabilizing feature associated with the adaptation of enzymes to extreme temperatures.
