In this paper, a program for evaluating the solution scattering from macromolecules with known atomic structure is presented, which uses multipole expansion for fast calculation of the spherically averaged scattering pattern and takes into account the hydration shell.
Abstract
A program for evaluating the solution scattering from macromolecules with known atomic structure is presented. The program uses multipole expansion for fast calculation of the spherically averaged scattering pattern and takes into account the hydration shell. Given the atomic coordinates (e.g. from the Brookhaven Protein Data Bank) it can either predict the solution scattering curve or fit the experimental scattering curve using only two free parameters, the average displaced solvent volume per atomic group and the contrast of the hydration layer. The program runs on IBM PCs and on the major UNIX platforms.

Structure of the complex between HER2 and an antibody paratope formed by side chains from tryptophan and serine.

TL;DR: A paratope raised against the human ErbB family member HER2 is described, using a binary diversity tryptophan/serine library displayed on phage and containing an unprecedented trimeric arrangement of HER2 closely related to previously observed homodimers of the related epidermal growth factor receptor.

A mechanism for histone chaperoning activity of nucleoplasmin: thermodynamic and structural models.

TL;DR: In this article, solution structural models of full-length NP and NP complexes with the functionally distinct nucleosomal core and linker histones are presented for the first time, providing a picture of the physical interactions between the NPs with NP core and tail domains, and the analysis of the binding events, employing a site-specific cooperative model, reveals a negative cooperativity-based regulatory mechanism for the linkers histone/nucleosomal histone exchange.

The structure of human interleukin-11 reveals receptor-binding site features and structural differences from interleukin-6.

TL;DR: Comparisons show important differences between the two cytokines and it is suggested that IL-11 engages GP130 differently to IL-6, and these data offer insight into the binding interactions ofIL-11 with each of its receptors and the structural mechanisms underlying agonist and antagonist variants of the protein.
