Journal ArticleDOI

BODIL: a molecular modeling environment for structure-function analysis and drug design

TL;DR: BODIL is a molecular modeling environment geared to help the user to quickly identify key features of proteins critical to molecular recognition, especially in drug discovery applications, and to understand the structural basis for function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective Binding of Collagen Subtypes by Integrin α1I, α2I, and α10I Domains

TL;DR: All three collagen receptors appear to differ in their ability to recognize distinct collagen subtypes, and the relatively small structural differences on their collagen binding surfaces may explain the functional specifics.
Journal ArticleDOI

MMGBSA as a tool to understand the binding affinities of filamin-peptide interactions.

TL;DR: Computationally estimated the binding free energies of filamin A (FLNa) subunits with bound peptides using the molecular mechanics-generalized Born surface area (MMGBSA) method and demonstrated that molecular dynamics combined with free energy calculations are applicable to estimating the energetics of protein-protein interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

α11β1 Integrin Recognizes the GFOGER Sequence in Interstitial Collagens

TL;DR: The data indicate that the GFOGER sequence in fibrillar collagens is a common recognition motif used by α1β1, α2 β1, and also α11β1 integrins, despite their distinct binding specificity for various collagen subtypes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of three tandem filamin domains reveals auto-inhibition of ligand binding.

TL;DR: Structural and functional analysis of other IgFLN domains suggests that auto‐inhibition by adjacent IgFLn domains may be a general mechanism controlling filamin–ligand interactions, which can explain the increased integrin binding of filamin splice variants and provides a mechanism by which ligand binding might impact filamin structure.
