The Ion-Translocating NrfD-Like Subunit of Energy-Transducing Membrane Complexes.
TL;DR: The periplasmic nitrite reductase (NrfABCD) was the first complex recognized to have a membrane subunit with these characteristics and consequently provided the family's name: NrfD as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A missense mutant of a Dps protein from Marinobacter hydrocarbonoclasticus was used as a building block to develop a new supramolecular assembly complex which enhances the iron uptake, a physiological function of this mini-ferritin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression, purification, crystallization and preliminary X‐ray diffraction analysis of a type II NADH:quinone oxidoreductase from the human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus
Ana Lúcia Rosário,Filipa V. Sena,Ana P. Batista,Tânia F. Oliveira,Diogo Athayde,Manuela M. Pereira,José A. Brito,Margarida Archer +7 more
TL;DR: The NDH-II enzyme from the Gram-positive human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus was recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli, purified, crystallized and a crystallographic data set was collected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coarse-Grained Parameterization of Nucleotide Cofactors and Metabolites: Protonation Constants, Partition Coefficients, and Model Topologies.
Filipe M. Sousa,Luís M. P. Lima,Clement Arnarez,Manuela M. Pereira,Manuela M. Pereira,Manuel N. Melo +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors comprehensively developed coarse-grained parameters for key metabolites/cofactors (FAD, FMN, riboflavin, NAD, NADP, ATP, ADP, AMP, and thiamine pyrophosphate) in different oxidation and protonation states as well as for smaller molecules derived from them.
