An Arginine-Faced Amphipathic Alpha Helix Is Required for Adenovirus Type 5 E4orf6 Protein Function

TL;DR: The results suggest that the E4orf6 protein contains an arginine-faced, amphipathic α helix that is critical for a functional interaction with the E1B 55-kDa protein in the cell and for the function of the E 4orf6protein during a lytic infection.

Molecular and spectroscopic characterisation of a low molecular weight seed storage protein from yellow mustard (Sinapis alba L.)

TL;DR: A zein-like packing is proposed for this protein from mustard seeds based on its structural characteristics, and a strong homology with napins from Brassica napus L is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

The interaction of Ca2+ with human factor IX

TL;DR: The rate of activation of human Factor IX by the coagulant protein of Russell's viper venom also shows a dependence on the presence of divalent cations, since Ca 2+, Sr 2+ , and Mn 2+ all allow activation to proceed equally well.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conservation of human fibrinogen conformation after cleavage of the B beta chain NH2 terminus.

TL;DR: Structural, functional, and immunochemical results imply that cleavage of 42 NH2-terminal residues from the B beta chain is not accompanied by a measurable conformational change, which implies that residues of this B Beta chain segment appear to play an important role in the expression of a fibrin polymerization site.

Structure and dynamics of a designed helix-loop-helix dimer in dilute aqueous trifluoroethanol solution. A strategy for NMR spectroscopic structure determination of molten globules in the rational design of native-like proteins

TL;DR: A route for developing native-like properties in SA-42 is suggested based on the identification by NMR spectroscopy of some less well ordered amino acid sidechains in the hydrophobic core and on the observed structural rigidity of the two helices.
