TLDR
The quality scores of a protein are displayed in the context of all known protein structures and problematic parts of a structure are shown and highlighted in a 3D molecule viewer in the ProSA-web service.Abstract:
A major problem in structural biology is the recognition of errors in experimental and theoretical models of protein structures. The ProSA program (Protein Structure Analysis) is an established tool which has a large user base and is frequently employed in the refinement and validation of experimental protein structures and in structure prediction and modeling. The analysis of protein structures is generally a difficult and cumbersome exercise. The new service presented here is a straightforward and easy to use extension of the classic ProSA program which exploits the advantages of interactive web-based applications for the display of scores and energy plots that highlight potential problems spotted in protein structures. In particular, the quality scores of a protein are displayed in the context of all known protein structures and problematic parts of a structure are shown and highlighted in a 3D molecule viewer. The service specifically addresses the needs encountered in the validation of protein structures obtained from X-ray analysis, NMR spectroscopy and theoretical calculations.

TL;DR: Mechanistic characterization of two gain-of-function mutations are described, suggesting that each mutation could compromise auto-inhibition in the inactive PLC, facilitating the activation process; in addition, ALI5-type mutations could enhance membrane interaction in the activated state.

TL;DR: The results indicate that hydrophobic moment modified by amino acid substitution may enhance MP selectivity and hypothesize that [I5, R8] MP follows a mechanism of action similar to that proposed for MP, where the pore-forming activity leads to cell death.

Evolutionary analysis of three gibberellin oxidase genes in rice, Arabidopsis, and soybean.
Fengming Han,Baoge Zhu +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a comparative analysis of 61 genes from rice (Oryza sativa), Arabidopsis, and soybean (Glycine max) were identified and a full study of these genes including phylogenetic tree construction, gene structure, gene family expansion and analysis of functional motifs was performed.

TL;DR: Molecular dynamics approach has shown that P722S mutation leads to increase in flexibility, and deviated more from the native structure which was supported by the decrease in the number of hydrogen bonds, and biophysical analysis revealed a clear insight of stability loss due to P7 22S mutation in FGFR1 protein.

Evaluation of morpho-physiological growth parameters of tomato in response to Cd induced toxicity and characterization of metal sensitive NRAMP3 transporter protein.
TL;DR: The study revealed that LeNRAMP3 metal transporters are activily involved in Cd translocation from root to leaves of tomato and sensitive at 250 μM Cd concentration in the tomato plants.

Recognition of errors in three‐dimensional structures of proteins
TL;DR: Techniques based on knowledge based mean fields which can be used to judge the quality of protein folds are presented, used to identify misfolded structures as well as faulty parts of structural models.

Structure of a bacterial multidrug ABC transporter
TL;DR: The observed, outward-facing conformation reflects the ATP-bound state, with the two nucleotide-binding domains in close contact and the two transmembrane domains forming a central cavity—presumably the drug translocation pathway—that is shielded from the inner leaflet of the lipid bilayer and from the cytoplasm, but exposed to the outer leaflet and the extracellular space.

TL;DR: A prototype of a new approach to the folding problem of polypeptide chains based on the analysis of known protein structures, which derives the energy potentials for the atomic interactions of all amino acid residue pairs as a function of the distance between the involved atoms is presented.
