Structural Properties of Pore-Forming Oligomers of α-Synuclein

TL;DR: On-pathway oligomers of the 140-residue protein alpha-synuclein, a key player in Parkinson's disease, are prepared at concentrations an order of magnitude higher than previously possible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural characterization of α-synuclein in an aggregation prone state.

TL;DR: NMR demonstrated that αS remains natively unfolded at lower pH, but secondary structure propensities were changed in proximity to acidic residues, and the ensemble of conformations of αS at acidic pH is characterized by a rigidification and compaction of the Asp and Glu‐rich C‐terminal region.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of distinct arrestin-1 elements in binding to different functional forms of rhodopsin

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that complex formation with either P-Rh* or P-opsin results in a global transition in the conformation of arrestin-1, possibly to a dynamic molten globule-like structure, and contributes to the mechanism that triggers preferential interactions of several signaling proteins with receptor-activated arrestins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitogen-activated protein kinases interacting kinases are autoinhibited by a reprogrammed activation segment

TL;DR: Structural rearrangements required for the activation of Mnks are apparent from the cocrystal structure of a Mnk2D228G–staurosporine complex and can be modeled on the basis of crystal packing interactions and suggest a novel regulatory mechanism specific for the Mnk subfamily.
