Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction of the herbicide glyphosate with its target enzyme 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate synthase in atomic detail

TL;DR: The elucidation of the active site of EPSP synthase and especially of the binding pattern of glyphosate provides a valuable roadmap for engineering new herbicides and herbicide-resistant crops, as well as new antibiotic and antiparasitic drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

The crystal structure of dimeric kinesin and implications for microtubule-dependent motility.

TL;DR: The dimeric form of the kinesin motor and neck domain from rat brain with bound ADP has been solved by X-ray crystallography and is unexpected since it is not compatible with the microtubule lattice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular basis for the herbicide resistance of Roundup Ready crops.

TL;DR: The CP4 enzyme has unexpected kinetic and structural properties that render it unique among the known EPSP synthases, and can be restored through a single-site mutation in the active site (Ala-100–Gly), allowing glyphosate to bind in its extended, inhibitory conformation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acetyl-lysine Binding Site of Bromodomain-Containing Protein 4 (BRD4) Interacts with Diverse Kinase Inhibitors.

TL;DR: Comparative structural analysis revealed markedly different binding modes of kinase hinge-binding scaffolds in the KAc binding site, suggesting that BET proteins are potential off-targets of diverse kinase inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular basis of glyphosate resistance – different approaches through protein engineering

TL;DR: Glyphosate (N-phosphonomethyl-glycine) is the most widely used herbicide in the world: glyphosate-based formulations exhibit broad-spectrum herbicidal activity with minimal human and environmental toxicity as mentioned in this paper.
