    Description: The high affinity of the noncovalent interaction between biotin and streptavidin forms the basis for many diagnostic assays that require the formation of an irreversible and specific linkage between biological macromolecules. Comparison of the refined crystal structures of apo and a streptavidin:biotin complex shows that the high affinity results from several factors. These factors include the formation of multiple hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions between biotin and the protein, together with the ordering of surface polypeptide loops that bury the biotin in the protein interior. Structural alterations at the biotin binding site produce quaternary changes in the streptavidin tetramer. These changes apparently propagate through cooperative deformations in the twisted beta sheets that link tetramer subunits.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Weber, P C -- Ohlendorf, D H -- Wendoloski, J J -- Salemme, F R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jan 6;243(4887):85-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Central Research & Development Department, E.

    Description: An analysis of the aminoacylation kinetics of unmodified yeast tRNAPhe mutants revealed that five single-stranded nucleotides are important for its recognition by yeast phenylalanyl-tRNA synthetase, provided they were positioned correctly in a properly folded tRNA structure. When four other tRNAs were changed to have these five nucleotides, they became near-normal substrates for the enzyme.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sampson, J R -- DiRenzo, A B -- Behlen, L S -- Uhlenbeck, O C -- GM 37552/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Mar 10;243(4896):1363-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Colorado, Boulder 80309.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2646717" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Chemical probing methods have been used to "footprint" 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) at each step during the in vitro assembly of twenty 30S subunit ribosomal proteins. These experiments yield information about the location of each protein relative to the structure of 16S rRNA and provide the basis for derivation of a detailed model for the three-dimensional folding of 16S rRNA. Several lines of evidence suggest that protein-dependent conformational changes in 16S rRNA play an important part in the cooperativity of ribosome assembly and in fine-tuning of the conformation and dynamics of 16S rRNA in the 30S subunit.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stern, S -- Powers, T -- Changchien, L M -- Noller, H F -- GM-17129/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 May 19;244(4906):783-90.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Thimann Laboratories, University of California, Santa Cruz 95064.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2658053" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Information relevant to the folding and unfolding of alpha helices has been extracted from an analysis of protein structures. The alpha helices in protein crystal structures have been found to be hydrated, either externally by a water molecule hydrogen bonding to the backbone carbonyl oxygen atom, or internally by inserting into the helix hydrogen bond and forming a hydrogen-bonded bridge between the backbone carbonyl oxygen and the amide nitrogen atoms. The water-inserted alpha-helical segments display a variety of reverse-turn conformations, such as type III, type II, type I, and opened out, that can be considered as folding intermediates that are trapped in the folding-unfolding process of alpha helices. Since the alpha helix, most turns, and the extended beta strand occupy contiguous regions in the conformational space of phi, psi dihedral angles, a plausible pathway can be proposed for the folding-unfolding process of alpha helices in aqueous solution.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sundaralingam, M -- Sekharudu, Y C -- AR-34139/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jun 16;244(4910):1333-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Wisconsin-Madison 53706.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2734612" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The proposal that the absorption maximum of the visual pigments is governed by interaction of the 11-cis-retinal chromophore with charged carboxylic acid side chains in the membrane-embedded regions of the proteins has been tested by mutating five Asp and Glu residues thought to be buried in rhodopsin. Changing Glu113 to Gln causes a dramatic shift in the absorption maximum from 500 nanometers to 380 nanometers, a decrease in the pKa (acidity constant) of the protonated Schiff base of the chromophore to about 6, and a greatly increased reactivity with hydroxylamine. Thus Glu113 appears to be the counterion to the protonated Schiff base. Wavelength modulation in visual pigments apparently is not governed by electrostatic interaction with carboxylate residues, other than the counterion.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zhukovsky, E A -- Oprian, D D -- 5T32 GM07596-11/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- EY07965/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- R01 EY007965/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- S07 RR07044/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Nov 17;246(4932):928-30.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Brandeis University, Waltham, MA 02254.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2573154" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: A novel approach to the control of enzyme catalysis is presented in which a disulfide bond engineered into the active-site cleft of bacteriophage T4 lysozyme is capable of switching the activity on and off. Two cysteines (Thr21----Cys and Thr142----Cys) were introduced by oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis into the active-site cleft. These cysteines spontaneously formed a disulfide bond under oxidative conditions in vitro, and the catalytic activity of the oxidized (cross-linked) T4 lysozyme was completely lost. On exposure to reducing agent, however, the disulfide bond was rapidly broken, and the reduced (non-cross-linked) lysozyme was restored to full activity. Thus an enzyme has been engineered such that redox potential can be used to control catalytic activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Matsumura, M -- Matthews, B W -- GM21967/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Feb 10;243(4892):792-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute of Molecular Biology, University of Oregon, Eugene 97403.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2916125" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Protein interiors contain many tightly packed apolar atoms in a nearly crystalline state. Both shielding of apolar atoms from solvent and efficient interior packing arrangements affect protein stability, but their relative importance is unclear. To separate these effects, the stabilities of wild-type and mutant gene V proteins from bacteriophage fl were studied by measuring resistance to denaturation. The effects of subtle interior packing changes, both separate from and combined with changes in buried side chain hydrophobicity, were measured. For the interior apolar-to-apolar substitutions studied, the two effects were of the same magnitude and alteration of packing without accompanying hydrophobicity changes substantially destabilized the protein.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sandberg, W S -- Terwilliger, T C -- 5732 GM07281/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM38714/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Jul 7;245(4913):54-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Chicago, IL 60637.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2787053" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The x-ray crystal structure of recombinant human renin has been determined. Molecular dynamics techniques that included crystallographic data as a restraint were used to improve an initial model based on porcine pepsinogen. The present agreement factor for data from 8.0 to 2.5 angstroms (A) is 0.236. Some of the surface loops are poorly determined, and these disordered regions border a 30 A wide solvent channel. Comparison of renin with other aspartyl proteinases shows that, although the structural cores and active sites are highly conserved, surface residues, some of which are critical for specificity, vary greatly (up to 10A). Knowledge of the actual structure, as opposed to the use of models based on related enzymes, should facilitate the design of renin inhibitors.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Sielecki, A R -- Hayakawa, K -- Fujinaga, M -- Murphy, M E -- Fraser, M -- Muir, A K -- Carilli, C T -- Lewicki, J A -- Baxter, J D -- James, M N -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Mar 10;243(4896):1346-51.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2493678" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Calicheamicin gamma 1I is a recently discovered diyne-ene-containing antitumor antibiotic that cleaves DNA in a double-stranded fashion, a rarity among drugs, at specific sequences. It is proposed that the cutting specificity is due to a combination of the complementarity of the diyne-ene portion of the aglycone with DNA secondary structures and stabilization by association of the thiobenzoate-carbohydrate tail with the minor groove.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Zein, N -- Poncin, M -- Nilakantan, R -- Ellestad, G A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 May 12;244(4905):697-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cyanamid Company, Medical Research Division, Lederle Laboratories, Pearl River, NY 10965.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2717946" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) encodes a protease that is essential for viral replication and is a member of the aspartic protease family. The recently determined three-dimensional structure of the related protease from Rous sarcoma virus has been used to model the smaller HIV-1 dimer. The active site has been analyzed by comparison to the structure of the aspartic protease, rhizopuspepsin, complexed with a peptide inhibitor. The HIV-1 protease is predicted to interact with seven residues of the protein substrate. This information can be used to design protease inhibitors and possible antiviral drugs.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Weber, I T -- Miller, M -- Jaskolski, M -- Leis, J -- Skalka, A M -- Wlodawer, A -- CA-06927/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA38046/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- N01-CO-74101/CO/NCI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Feb 17;243(4893):928-31.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Crystallography Laboratory, NCI-Frederick Cancer Research Facility, MD 21701.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2537531" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
