The refolding of denatured rabbit muscle creatine kinase

TL;DR: The refolding of rabbit muscle creatine kinase (ATP:creatine N-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.2) which had been denatured in 3 M guanidine hydrochloride was monitored by studying the regain of enzyme activity and a pathway for the refolding process could be proposed.

Stable proline box motif at the N-terminal end of alpha-helices.

TL;DR: A novel N‐terminal α‐helix local motif that involves three hydrophobic residues and a Pro residue (Pro‐box motif) is described, and it is found that this motif is formed in peptides, and that the accompanyingHydrophobic interactions contribute up to 1.2 kcal/mol to helix stability.

Synthetic and structural studies on Pyrularia pubera thionin: a single-residue mutation enhances activity against Gram-negative bacteria.

TL;DR: The thionin from Pyrularia pubera (Pp‐TH), a 47‐residue peptide with four internal disulfide bonds, was efficiently produced by chemical synthesis and showed a significant increase in antibiotic activity against several Gram‐negative bacteria, whereas it retained the same activity against other pathogens.

Evidence for a coiled-coil interaction mode of disordered proteins from bacterial type III secretion systems.

TL;DR: Evidence from HrpO analogues from all T3 SS families and the flagellum suggests that the extreme flexibility and propensity for coiled-coil interactions of this diverse class of small, intrinsically disordered proteins might be important elements in the establishment of protein-protein interaction networks required for T3SS function.
