Journal ArticleDOI

Mesencephalic Astrocyte-derived Neurotrophic Factor (MANF) Has a Unique Mechanism to Rescue Apoptotic Neurons

TL;DR: A three-dimensional solution structure of human MANF is shown that differs drastically from other neurotrophic factors and confirms that MANF and C-MANF protect neurons intracellularly as efficiently as Ku70.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of protein structure on laccase-catalyzed protein oligomerization.

TL;DR: Laccase-catalyzed oligomerization of proteins was studied using Trametes hirsuta laccase (ThL) and coactosin as a model system and the reaction mechanism was elucidated using free amino acids and the tripeptide Gly-Leu-Tyr as substrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural basis and evolutionary origin of actin filament capping by twinfilin

TL;DR: The domain requirement for actin filament capping by twinfilin is remarkably similar to that of gelsolin family proteins, suggesting the existence of a general barbed-end capping mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recognition of tandem PxxP motifs as a unique Src homology 3-binding mode triggers pathogen-driven actin assembly

TL;DR: The NMR structure of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase substrate (IRTKS) SH3 domain in complex with a repeat from Escherichia coli-secreted protein F-like protein encoded on prophage U (EspFU), a translocated effector of enterohemorrhagic E. coli that commandeers the mammalian actin assembly machinery is determined.
