1H NMR spectroscopic studies of calcium-binding proteins. 3. Solution conformations of rat apo-alpha-parvalbumin and metal-bound rat alpha-parvalbumin.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that at 25 degrees C, rat apo-alpha-parvalbumin unfolds entirely, losing the tertiary structure that characterizes its folded form: not only are the ring-current-shifted aromatic and methyl 1H NMR resonances leveled, but the 262 and 269-nm CD bands are also severely reduced.

Circular dichroism study of the interaction of glutamyl-tRNA synthetase with tRNAGlu2.

Gordon E. Willick, +1 more
- 21 Sep 1976 - 
TL;DR: The interaction of glutamyl-tRNA synthetase with tRNAGlu2 has been studied and results can be interpreted to indicate a change in the conformation of one or more of the helical regions of this molecule.
Journal ArticleDOI

The dimeric structure and the bivalent recognition of H3K4me3 by the tumor suppressor ING4 suggests a mechanism for enhanced targeting of the HBO1 complex to chromatin.

TL;DR: Results show that ING4 is a bivalent reader of the chromatin H3K4me3 modification and suggest a mechanism for enhanced targeting of the HBO1 complex to specific chromatin sites, which could be common to other ING-containing remodeling complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of helix stabilizing residues in GCN4 basic region folding and DNA binding

TL;DR: The results suggest that the presence of Asp and Pro residues contributes significantly to helical structure and to the DNA‐binding ability of the basic region in the absence of the leucine zipper, and the implications for in vivo protein function are discussed.

Characterization of the HIV N-terminal Fusion Peptide-containing Region in Context of Key gp41 Fusion Conformations

TL;DR: This study is the first to characterize the FP region in the context of the folded core and provides a basic understanding of the role of the elusive FP for key gp41 fusion conformations.
