    Description: Few and limited amino acid sequence homologies have been found among eight bacterial aminoacyl transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetases whose primary structures are known. The entire 939-amino acid primary structure of Escherichia coli isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase is now reported. In a sequence of 11 consecutive amino acids matching a sequence in E. coli methionyl-tRNA synthetase, there are ten identical residues and one conservative change. This is the strongest homology recorded between any two aminoacyl tRNA synthetases. This part of the methionine enzyme's three-dimensional structure has been determined, and it occurs in a mononucleotide binding fold; a close three-dimensional structural homology of this part of the enzyme with Bacillus stearothermophilus tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase has also been reported. The three synthetases probably fold identically in this region.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Webster, T -- Tsai, H -- Kula, M -- Mackie, G A -- Schimmel, P -- GM15539/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Dec 14;226(4680):1315-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6390679" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Electron spectroscopic imaging was combined with reconstruction algorithms to derive the three-dimensional structure of the nucleosome core particle to a resolution of 1.5 nanometers. Images of phosphorus distributions within individual nucleosomes were interpreted as projections of a supercoil of DNA. These were used to orient the corresponding individual nucleosome images, making it possible to reconstruct the entire nucleosome in three dimensions. The structure is consistent with known biochemical and biophysical data and explains site-specific nuclease sensitivity, although differing in part with other nucleosome models.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Harauz, G -- Ottensmeyer, F P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Nov 23;226(4677):936-40.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6505674" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The guanosine triphosphate-binding proteins (G proteins) found in a variety of tissues transduce signals generated by ligand binding to cell surface receptors into changes in intracellular metabolism. Amino acid sequences of peptides prepared by partial proteolysis of the alpha subunit of a bovine brain G protein and the alpha subunit of rod outer-segment transducin were determined. The two proteins show regions of sequence identity as well as regions of diversity. A portion of the amino-terminal peptide sequence of each protein is highly homologous with the corresponding region in the ras protein (a protooncogene product). These similarities suggest that G proteins and ras proteins may have analogous functions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hurley, J B -- Simon, M I -- Teplow, D B -- Robishaw, J D -- Gilman, A G -- GM 09731-02/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- NS 18153/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Nov 16;226(4676):860-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6436980" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Glucose inhibits collagen fibril formation in vitro. A linear dose response was observed, with half-maximum inhibition of fibril formation occurring at 50 mM glucose. Nonfibrillar collagen cannot be cross-linked by lysyl oxidase, an enzyme that catalyzes the initial cross-linking reaction. The degree of decreased fibril formation correlated with the loss of ability of the collagen to serve as a substrate for lysyl oxidase. Collagen that is not cross-linked is unstable and more susceptible to collagenolytic attack. Interference with collagen cross-linking and more rapid degradation may explain the decreased amounts of interstitial collagen and the poor healing of wounds associated with diabetes mellitus.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lien, Y H -- Stern, R -- Fu, J C -- Siegel, R C -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Sep 28;225(4669):1489-91.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6147899" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The adenylate cyclase system is composed of an activating hormone or neurotransmitter (H), its receptor (R), the guanosine triphosphate (GTP) binding protein (Gs), and the catalytic unit (C). The activation of the receptor R involves a transient change in conformation, from a loose binding of the neurotransmitter H to an extremely tight interaction, termed locking. The system is regulated in the activation steps and also by three deactivation processes. A guanosine triphosphatase activity is built into the Gs protein so that the active GsGTP has only a limited lifetime during which it is able to activate C. In addition, the continued occupation of R by H causes desensitization of R. Finally, there are inhibitory receptors, such as alpha-adrenergic and opiate receptors, which inhibit the adenylate cyclase by way of a specific GTP binding protein (Gi). Yet to be determined are the conformational transformations of pure R on binding of an agonist or a partial agonist; the genes that code for the many different receptors that activate the adenylate cyclase, and the possibility that the G components interact with systems in the cell other than the adenylate cyclase.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Schramm, M -- Selinger, Z -- AM10451/AM/NIADDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Sep 21;225(4668):1350-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6147897" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The nicotine receptor for the neurotransmitter acetylcholine is an allosteric protein composed of four different subunits assembled in a transmembrane pentamer alpha 2 beta gamma delta. The protein carries two acetylcholine sites at the level of the alpha subunits and contains the ion channel. The complete sequence of the four subunits is known. The membrane-bound protein undergoes conformational transitions that regulate the opening of the ion channel and are affected by various categories of pharmacologically active ligands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Changeux, J P -- Devillers-Thiery, A -- Chemouilli, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Sep 21;225(4668):1335-45.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6382611" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The molecular structure of triostin A, a cyclic octadepsipeptide antibiotic, has been solved complexed to a DNA double helical fragment with the sequence CGTACG (C, cytosine; G, guanine; T, thymine; A, adenine). The two planar quinoxaline rings of triostin A bis intercalate on the minor groove of the DNA double helix surrounding the CG base pairs at either end. The alanine residues form hydrogen bonds to the guanines. Base stacking in the DNA is perturbed, and the major binding interaction involves a large number of van der Waals contacts between the peptides and the nucleic acid. The adenine residues in the center are in the syn conformation and are paired to thymine through Hoogsteen base pairing.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wang, A H -- Ughetto, G -- Quigley, G J -- Hakoshima, T -- van der Marel, G A -- van Boom, J H -- Rich, A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Sep 14;225(4667):1115-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6474168" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Proteolytic enzymes have many physiological functions, ranging from generalized protein digestion to more specific regulated processes such as the activation of zymogens, blood coagulation and the lysis of fibrin clots, the release of hormones and pharmacologically active peptides from precursor proteins, and the transport of secretory proteins across membranes. They are present in all forms of living organisms. Comparisons of amino acid sequences, three-dimensional structures, and enzymatic reaction mechanisms of proteases indicate that there are distinct families of these proteins. Changes in molecular structure and function have accompanied the evolution of proteolytic enzymes and their inhibitors, each having relatively simple roles in primitive organisms and more diverse and more complex functions in higher organisms.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Neurath, H -- GM-15731/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1984 Apr 27;224(4647):350-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6369538" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
