Journal ArticleDOI
Crystal Structure of the CSL-Notch-Mastermind Ternary Complex Bound to DNA
TL;DR: Ternary complex formation induces a substantial conformational change within CSL, suggesting a molecular mechanism for the conversion of CSL from a repressor to an activator.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Canonical Notch Signaling Pathway: Structural and Biochemical Insights into Shape, Sugar, and Force
TL;DR: A review of recent molecular insights into how Notch signals are triggered and how cell shape affects these events is provided, and the new insights are used to illuminate a few perplexing observations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toroidal Structure of λ-Exonuclease
TL;DR: Structure determination at 2.4 angstrom resolution shows that λ-exonuclease consists of three subunits that form a toroid, adequate to accommodate the DNA substrate and thus provides a structural basis for the ability of the enzyme to sequentially hydrolyze thousands of nucleotides in a highly processive manner.
Book ChapterDOI
Mechanistic Insights into Notch Receptor Signaling from Structural and Biochemical Studies
TL;DR: The current understanding of the molecular logic of Notch signal transduction is summarized, emphasizing structural and biochemical studies of notch receptors, their ligands, and complexes of intracellular Notch proteins with their target transcription factors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crystal structure of the nuclear effector of Notch signaling, CSL, bound to DNA.
TL;DR: The 2.85 Å crystal structure of CSL with a target DNA is reported, and a hydrophobic pocket on BTD is identified as the likely site of Notch interaction with CSL, which has functional implications for the mechanism of notch signaling.
