Journal ArticleDOI

Structural determinants for the inhibitory ligands of orotidine-5'-monophosphate decarboxylase.

TL;DR: A comprehensive study of potent, structurally diverse ligands of ODCase and an empirical model for the ligand structure for rational modifications in new drug design and potentially new lead structures are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of Antibiotics That Dysregulate the Neisserial ClpP Protease.

TL;DR: Based on the ACP-ClpP cocrystal structure solved here, it is demonstrated that ACPs could be designed to be species specific, validates the feasibility of drug-based targeting of ClpP in Gram-negative bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time-resolved crystallography on H-ras p21

TL;DR: In this paper, the results obtained to date on a project aimed at characterizing the changes occurring in the protein product (p21) of the H-ras proto-oncogene during and as a result of hydrolysis of GTP at its active site are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

The prion protein is embedded in a molecular environment that modulates transforming growth factor β and integrin signaling.

TL;DR: The interactome of the prion protein (PrP), best known for its central role in prion diseases, is interrogated in four mouse cell lines and a shared association of the majority of PrP candidate interactors with cellular events at the intersection of transforming growth factor β and integrin signaling is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conformational determinants of phosphotyrosine peptides complexed with the Src SH2 domain.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the structural basis for phopsphopeptide- Src SH2 interactions is more complex than the “two-pronged plug two-hole socket” model, and suggest a model where all three residues C-terminal to the phosphotyrosine determine the conformation of the bound phosphopeptides.
