    Evidence of changes in protease sensitivity and subunit exchange rate on DNA binding by C/EBP (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-17
    Beschreibung: The transcription factor C/EBP uses a bipartite structural motif to bind DNA. Two protein chains dimerize through a set of amphipathic alpha helices termed the leucine zipper. Highly basic polypeptide regions emerge from the zipper to form a linked set of DNA contact surfaces. In the recently proposed a "scissors grip" model, the paired set of basic regions begin DNA contact at a central point and track in opposite directions along the major groove, forming a molecular clamp around DNA. This model predicts that C/EBP must undertake significant changes in protein conformation as it binds and releases DNA. The basic region of ligand-free C/EBP is highly sensitive to protease digestion. Pronounced resistance to proteolysis occurred when C/EBP associated with its specific DNA substrate. Sequencing of discrete proteolytic fragments showed that prominent sites for proteolysis occur at two junction points predicted by the "scissors grip" model. One junction corresponds to the cleft where the basic regions emerge from the leucine zipper. The other corresponds to a localized nonhelical segment that has been hypothesized to contain an N-cap and facilitate the sharp angulation necessary for the basic region to track continuously in the major groove of DNA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shuman, J D -- Vinson, C R -- McKnight, S L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 17;249(4970):771-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Research Laboratories, Department of Embryology, Baltimore, MD 21210.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2202050" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Interaction of Hsp 70 with newly synthesized proteins: implications for protein folding and assembly (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-05-18
    Beschreibung: The 70-kilodalton family of heat shock proteins (Hsp 70) has been implicated in posttranslational protein assembly and translocation. Binding of cytosolic forms of Hsp 70 (Hsp 72,73) with nascent proteins in the normal cell was investigated and found to be transient and adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-dependent. Interaction of Hsp 72,73 with newly synthesized proteins appeared to occur cotranslationally, because nascent polypeptides released prematurely from polysomes in vivo can be isolated in a complex with Hsp 72,73. Moreover, isolation of polysomes from short-term [35S]Met-labeled cells (pulsed) revealed that Hsp 72,73 associated with nascent polypeptide chains. In cells experiencing stress, newly synthesized proteins coimmunoprecipitated with Hsp 72,73; however, in contrast to normal cells, interaction with Hsp 72,73 was not transient. A model consistent with these data suggests that under normal growth conditions, cytosolic Hsp 72,73 interact transiently with nascent polypeptides to facilitate proper folding, and that metabolic stress interferes with these events.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Beckmann, R P -- Mizzen, L E -- Welch, W J -- GM 33551/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 May 18;248(4957):850-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco 94143.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2188360" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Site-specific cleavage of a yeast chromosome by oligonucleotide-directed triple-helix formation (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-07-06
    Beschreibung: Oligonucleotides equipped with EDTA-Fe can bind specifically to duplex DNA by triple-helix formation and produce double-strand cleavage at binding sites greater than 12 base pairs in size. To demonstrate that oligonucleotide-directed triple-helix formation is a viable chemical approach for the site-specific cleavage of large genomic DNA, an oligonucleotide with EDTA-Fe at the 5' and 3' ends was targeted to a 20-base pair sequence in the 340-kilobase pair chromosome III of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Double-strand cleavage products of the correct size and location were observed, indicating that the oligonucleotide bound and cleaved the target site among almost 14 megabase pairs of DNA. Because oligonucleotide-directed triple-helix formation has the potential to be a general solution for DNA recognition, this result has implications for physical mapping of chromosomes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Strobel, S A -- Dervan, P B -- GM 42966/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jul 6;249(4964):73-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Arnold and Mabel Beckman Laboratories of Chemical Synthesis, Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena 91125.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2195655" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    No specific recognition of leader peptide by SecB, a chaperone involved in protein export (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-05-18
    Beschreibung: Most proteins destined for export from Escherichia coli are made as precursors containing amino-terminal leader sequences that are essential for export and that are removed during the process. The initial step in export of a subset of proteins, which includes maltose-binding protein, is binding of the precursor by the molecular chaperone SecB. This work shows directly that SecB binds with high affinity to unfolded maltose-binding protein but does not specifically recognize and bind the leader. Rather, the leader modulates folding to expose elements in the remainder of the polypeptide that are recognized by SecB.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Randall, L L -- Topping, T B -- Hardy, S J -- GM 29798/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 May 18;248(4957):860-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Biochemistry/Biophysics Program, Washington State University, Pullman 99164-4660.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2188362" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    NMR characterization of surface interactions in the cytochrome b5-cytochrome c complex (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-02-16
    Beschreibung: The complex formed in solution by native and chemically modified cytochrome c with cytochrome b5 has been studied by 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). Contrary to predictions of recent theoretical analysis, 1H NMR spectroscopy indicates that there is no major movement of cytochrome c residue Phe82 on binding to cytochrome b5. The greater resolution provided by 13C NMR spectroscopy permits detection of small perturbations in the environments of cytochrome c residues Ile75 and Ile85 on binding with cytochrome b5, a result that is in agreement with earlier model-building experiments. As individual cytochrome c lysyl residues are resolved in the 1H NMR spectrum of N-acetimidylated cytochrome c, the interaction of this modified protein with cytochrome b5 has been studied to evaluate the number of cytochrome c lysyl residues involved in binding to cytochrome b5. The results of this experiment indicate that at least six lysyl residues are involved, two more than predicted by static model building, which indicates that cytochrome c and cytochrome b5 form two or more structurally similar 1:1 complexes in solution.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Burch, A M -- Rigby, S E -- Funk, W D -- MacGillivray, R T -- Mauk, M R -- Mauk, A G -- Moore, G R -- GM-28834/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Feb 16;247(4944):831-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉School of Chemical Sciences, University of East Anglia, Norwich, United Kingdom.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2154849" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    GT-1 binding site confers light responsive expression in transgenic tobacco (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-04-27
    Beschreibung: Light-dependent expression of rbcS, the gene encoding the small subunit of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase, which is the key enzyme involved in carbon fixation in higher plants, is regulated at the transcriptional level. Sequence analysis of the gene has uncovered a conserved GT motif in the -150 to -100 region of many rbcS promoters. This motif serves as the binding site of a nuclear factor, designated GT-1. Analysis of site-specific mutants of pea rbcS-3A promoter demonstrated that GT-1 binding in vitro is correlated with light-responsive expression of the rbcS promoter in transgenic plants. However, it is not known whether factors other than GT-1 might also be required for activation of transcription by light. A synthetic tetramer of box II (TGTGTGGTTAATATG), the GT-1 binding site located between -152 to -138 of the rbcS-3A promoter, inserted upstream of a truncated cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter is sufficient to confer expression in leaves of transgenic tobacco. This expression occurs principally in chloroplast-containing cells, is induced by light, and is correlated with the ability of box II to bind GT-1 in vitro. The data show that the binding site for GT-1 is likely to be a part of the molecular light switch for rbcS activation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lam, E -- Chua, N H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Apr 27;248(4954):471-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Plant Molecular Biology, Rockefeller University, New York, NY 10021.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2330508" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    PECAM-1 (CD31) cloning and relation to adhesion molecules of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

    Beschreibung: An antibody to a platelet integral membrane glycoprotein was found to cross-react with the previously identified CD31 myelomonocytic differentiation antigen and with hec7, an endothelial cell protein that is enriched at intercellular junctions. This antibody identified a complementary DNA clone from an endothelial cell library. The 130-kilodalton translated sequence contained six extracellular immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains and was most similar to the cell adhesion molecule (CAM) subgroup of the Ig superfamily. This is the only known member of the CAM family on platelets. Its cell surface distribution suggests participation in cellular recognition events.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Newman, P J -- Berndt, M C -- Gorski, J -- White, G C 2nd -- Lyman, S -- Paddock, C -- Muller, W A -- HL-40926/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Mar 9;247(4947):1219-22.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉The Blood Center of Southeastern Wisconsin, Milwaukee 53233.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1690453" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A potent GAL4 derivative activates transcription at a distance in vitro (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-02-09
    Beschreibung: Transcription of a typical eukaryotic gene by RNA polymerase II is activated by proteins bound to sites found near the beginning of the gene as well as to sites, called enhancers, located a great distance from the gene. According to one view, the primary difference between an activator that can work at a large distance and one that cannot is that the former bears a particularly strong activating region; the stronger the activating region, the more readily the activator interacts with its target bound near the transcriptional start site, with the intervening DNA looping out to accommodate the reaction. One alternative view is that the effect of proteins bound to enhancers might require some special aspect of cellular or chromosome structure. Consistent with the first view, an activator bearing an unusually potent activating region can stimulate transcription of a mammalian gene in a HeLa nuclear extract when bound as far as 1.3 kilobase pairs upstream or 320 base pairs downstream of the transcriptional start site.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Carey, M -- Leatherwood, J -- Ptashne, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Feb 9;247(4943):710-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2405489" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Isotope-edited NMR of cyclosporin A bound to cyclophilin: evidence for a trans 9,10 amide bond (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-12-07
    Beschreibung: The binding of a 13C-labeled cyclosporin A (CsA) analog to cyclophilin (peptidyl prolyl isomerase) was examined by means of isotope-edited nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques. A trans 9,10 peptide bond was adopted when CsA was bound to cyclophilin, in contrast to the cis 9,10 peptide bond found in the crystalline and solution conformations of CsA. Furthermore, nuclear Overhauser effects (NOEs) were observed between the zeta 3 and epsilon 3 protons of the methylleucine (MeLeu) residue at position 9 of CsA and tryptophan121 (Trp121) and phenylalanine (Phe) protons of cyclophilin, suggesting that the MeLeu9 residue of CsA interacts with cyclophilin. These results illustrate the power of isotope-edited NMR techniques for rapidly providing useful information about the conformations and active site environment of inhibitors bound to their target enzymes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fesik, S W -- Gampe, R T Jr -- Holzman, T F -- Egan, D A -- Edalji, R -- Luly, J R -- Simmer, R -- Helfrich, R -- Kishore, V -- Rich, D H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 7;250(4986):1406-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Pharmaceutical Discovery Division, Abbott Laboratories, Abbott Park, IL 60064.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2255910" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Autophosphorylation of protein kinase C at three separated regions of its primary sequence (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-07-27
    Beschreibung: The major autophosphorylation sites of the rat beta II isozyme of protein kinase C were identified. The modified threonine and serine residues were found in the amino-terminal peptide, the carboxyl-terminal tail, and the hinge region between the regulatory lipid-binding domain and the catalytic kinase domain. Because this autophosphorylation follows an intrapeptide mechanism, extraordinary flexibility of the protein is necessary to phosphorylate the three regions. Comparison of the sequences surrounding the modified residues showed no obvious recognition motif nor any similarity to substrate phosphorylation sites, suggesting that proximity to the active site may be the primary criterion for their phosphorylation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Flint, A J -- Paladini, R D -- Koshland, D E Jr -- DK09765/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jul 27;249(4967):408-11.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2377895" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The energetic basis of specificity in the Eco RI endonuclease--DNA interaction (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-11-09
    Beschreibung: High sequence selectivity in DNA-protein interactions was analyzed by measuring discrimination by Eco RI endonuclease between the recognition site GAATTC and systematically altered DNA sites. Base analogue substitutions that preserve the sequence-dependent conformational motif of the GAATTC site permit deletion of single sites of protein-base contact at a cost of +1 to +2 kcal/mol. However, the introduction of any one incorrect natural base pair costs +6 to +13 kcal/mol in transition state interaction energy, the resultant of the following interdependent factors: deletion of one or two hydrogen bonds between the protein and a purine base; unfavourable steric apposition between a group on the protein and an incorrectly placed functional group on a base; disruption of a pyrimidine contact with the protein; loss of some crucial interactions between protein and DNA phosphates; and an increased energetic cost of attaining the required DNA conformation in the transition state complex. Eco RI endonuclease thus achieves stringent discrimination by both "direct readout" (protein-base contracts) and "indirect readout" (protein-phosphate contacts and DNA conformation) of the DNA sequence.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lesser, D R -- Kurpiewski, M R -- Jen-Jacobson, L -- GM-29207/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Nov 9;250(4982):776-86.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Sciences, University of Pittsburgh, PA 15260.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2237428" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Kinetics of gramicidin channel formation in lipid bilayers: transmembrane monomer association (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-11-30
    Beschreibung: Conducting gramicidin channels form predominantly by the transmembrane association of monomers, one from each side of a lipid bilayer. In single-channel experiments in planar bilayers the two gramicidin analogs, [Val1]gramicidin A (gA) and [4,4,4-F3-Val1]gramicidin A (F3gA), form dimeric channels that are structurally equivalent and have characteristically different conductances. When these gramicidins were added asymmetrically, one to each side of a preformed bilayer, the predominant channel type was the hybrid channel, formed between two chemically dissimilar monomers. These channels formed by the association of monomers residing in each half of the membrane. These results also indicate that the hydrophobic gramicidins are surprisingly membrane impermeant, a conclusion that was confirmed in experiments in which gA was added asymmetrically and symmetrically to preformed bilayers.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉O'Connell, A M -- Koeppe, R E 2nd -- Andersen, O S -- GM21342/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM34968/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Nov 30;250(4985):1256-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Physiology and Biophysics, Cornell University Medical College, New York, NY 10021.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1700867" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Design of DNA-binding peptides based on the leucine zipper motif (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-17
    Beschreibung: A class of transcriptional regulator proteins bind to DNA at dyad-symmetric sites through a motif consisting of (i) a "leucine zipper" sequence that associates into noncovalent, parallel, alpha-helical dimers and (ii) a covalently connected basic region necessary for binding DNA. The basic regions are predicted to be disordered in the absence of DNA and to form alpha helices when bound to DNA. These helices bind in the major groove forming multiple hydrogen-bonded and van der Waals contacts with the nucleotide bases. To test this model, two peptides were designed that were identical to natural leucine zipper proteins only at positions hypothesized to be critical for dimerization and DNA recognition. The peptides form dimers that bind specifically to DNA with their basic regions in alpha-helical conformations.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉O'Neil, K T -- Hoess, R H -- DeGrado, W F -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 17;249(4970):774-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Central Research and Development Department, E.I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., Wilmington, DE 19880-0328.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2389143" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    DNA looping and unlooping by AraC protein (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-10-26
    Beschreibung: Expression of the L-arabinose BAD operon in Escherichia coli is regulated by AraC protein which acts both positively in the presence of arabinose to induce transcription and negatively in the absence of arabinose to repress transcription. The repression of the araBAD promoter is mediated by DNA looping between AraC protein bound at two sites near the promoter separated by 210 base pairs, araI and araO2. In vivo and in vitro experiments presented here show that an AraC dimer, with binding to half of araI and to araO2, maintains the repressed state of the operon. The addition of arabinose, which induces the operon, breaks the loop, and shifts the interactions from the distal araO2 site to the previously unoccupied half of the araI site. The conversion between the two states does not require additional binding of AraC protein and appears to be driven largely by properties of the protein rather than being specified by the slightly different DNA sequences of the binding sites. Slight reorientation of the subunits of AraC could specify looping or unlooping by the protein. Such a mechanism could account for regulation of DNA looping in other systems.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lobell, R B -- Schleif, R F -- GM18277/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Oct 26;250(4980):528-32.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Graduate 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/2237403" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    An insertion in the human thyrotropin receptor critical for high affinity hormone binding (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-09-21
    Beschreibung: Thyrotropin (TSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and chorionic gonadotropin (CG) are structurally related glycoprotein hormones, which bind to receptors that share a high degree of sequence similarity. However, comparison of the primary amino acid sequences of the TSH and LH-CG receptors reveals two unique insertions of 8 and 50 amino acids in the extracellular domain of the TSH receptor. The functional significance of these insertions were determined by site-directed mutagenesis. Deletion of the 50-amino acid tract (residues 317 to 366) had no effect on TSH binding or on TSH and thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulin (TSI) biological activities. In contrast, either deletion or substitution of the eight-amino acid region (residues 38 to 45) abolished these activities. This eight-amino acid tract near the amino terminus of the TSH receptor appears to be an important site of interaction for both TSH and TSI.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wadsworth, H L -- Chazenbalk, G D -- Nagayama, Y -- Russo, D -- Rapoport, B -- DK-19289/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- DK-36182/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Sep 21;249(4975):1423-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medicine, Veterans Administration Medical Center, San Francisco, CA 94121.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2169649" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Sequence requirements for coiled-coils: analysis with lambda repressor-GCN4 leucine zipper fusions (1990)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-12-07
    Beschreibung: A genetic system was developed in Escherichia coli to study leucine zippers with the amino-terminal domain of bacteriophage lambda repressor as a reporter for dimerization. This system was used to analyze the importance of the amino acid side chains at eight positions that form the hydrophobic interface of the leucine zipper dimer from the yeast transcriptional activator, GCN4. When single amino acid substitutions were analyzed, most functional variants contained hydrophobic residues at the dimer interface, while most nonfunctional sequence variants contained strongly polar or helix-breaking residues. In multiple randomization experiments, however, many combinations of hydrophobic residues were found to be nonfunctional, and leucines in the heptad repeat were shown to have a special function in leucine zipper dimerization.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hu, J C -- O'Shea, E K -- Kim, P S -- Sauer, R T -- AI15706/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM11117/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM44162/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 7;250(4986):1400-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge 02139.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2147779" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Involvement of the silencer and UAS binding protein RAP1 in regulation of telomere length (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-10-26
    Beschreibung: The yeast protein RAP1, initially described as a transcriptional regulator, binds in vitro to sequences found in a number of seemingly unrelated genomic loci. These include the silencers at the transcriptionally repressed mating-type genes, the promoters of many genes important for cell growth, and the poly[(cytosine)1-3 adenine] [poly(C1-3A)] repeats of telomeres. Because RAP1 binds in vitro to the poly(C1-3A) repeats of telomeres, it has been suggested that RAP1 may be involved in telomere function in vivo. In order to test this hypothesis, the telomere tract lengths of yeast strains that contained conditionally lethal (ts) rap1 mutations were analyzed. Several rap1ts alleles reduced telomere length in a temperature-dependent manner. In addition, plasmids that contain small, synthetic telomeres with intact or mutant RAP1 binding sites were tested for their ability to function as substrates for poly(C1-3A) addition in vivo. Mutations in the RAP1 binding sites reduced the efficiency of the addition reaction.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lustig, A J -- Kurtz, S -- Shore, D -- GM 40094/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Oct 26;250(4980):549-53.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY 10021.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2237406" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

The three-dimensional structure of a cellulase, the enzymatic core of CBHII from the fungus Trichoderma reesei reveals an alpha-beta protein with a fold similar to but different from the widely occurring barrel topology first observed in triose phosphate isomerase. The active site of CBHII is located at the carboxyl-terminal end of a parallel beta barrel, in an enclosed tunnel through which the cellulose threads. Two aspartic acid residues, located in the center of the tunnel are the probable catalytic residues.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rouvinen, J -- Bergfors, T -- Teeri, T -- Knowles, J K -- Jones, T A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jul 27;249(4967):380-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, BMC, Uppsala, Sweden.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2377893" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Structural characterization of a partly folded apomyoglobin intermediate (1990)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-09-28
    Beschreibung: To understand why proteins adopt particular three-dimensional structures, it is important to elucidate the hierarchy of interactions that stabilize the native state. Proteins in partly folded states can be used to dissect protein organizational hierarchies. A partly folded apomyoglobin intermediate has now been characterized structurally by trapping slowly exchanging peptide NH protons and analyzing them by two-dimensional 1H-NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance). Protons in the A, G, and H helix regions are protected from exchange, while protons in the B and E helix regions exchange freely. On the basis of these results and the three-dimensional structure of native myoglobin, a structural model is presented for the partly folded intermediate in which a compact subdomain retains structure while the remainder of the protein is essentially unfolded.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hughson, F M -- Wright, P E -- Baldwin, R L -- DK34909/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- GM19988/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Sep 28;249(4976):1544-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Beckman Center, Stanford University School of Medicine, CA 94305.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2218495" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Regulation of an enzyme by phosphorylation at the active site (1990)

    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-31
    Beschreibung: The isocitrate dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli is an example of a ubiquitous class of enzymes that are regulated by covalent modification. In the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme-substrate complex, isocitrate forms a hydrogen bond with Ser113, the site of regulatory phosphorylation. The structures of Asp113 and Glu113 mutants, which mimic the inactivation of the enzyme by phosphorylation, show minimal conformational changes from wild type, as in the phosphorylated enzyme. Calculations based on observed structures suggest that the change in electrostatic potential when a negative charge is introduced either by phosporylation or site-directed mutagenesis is sufficient to inactivate the enzyme. Thus, direct interaction at a ligand binding site is an alternative mechanism to induced conformational changes from an allosteric site in the regulation of protein activity by phosphorylation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hurley, J H -- Dean, A M -- Sohl, J L -- Koshland, D E Jr -- Stroud, R M -- GM 24485/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 31;249(4972):1012-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, University of California, San Francisco 94143-0448.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2204109" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Comparison of the 2.4 angstrom resolution crystal structures of dimeric clam hemoglobin in the deoxygenated and carbon-monoxide liganded states shows how radically different the structural basis for cooperative oxygen binding is from that operative in mammalian hemoglobins. Heme groups are in direct communication across a novel subunit interface formed by the E and F helices. The conformational changes at this interface that accompany ligand binding are more dramatic at a tertiary level but more subtle at a quaternary level than those in mammalian hemoglobins. These findings suggest a cooperative mechanism that links ligation at one subunit with potentiation of affinity at the second subunit.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Royer, W E Jr -- Hendrickson, W A -- Chiancone, E -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 3;249(4968):518-21.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, Columbia University, New York, NY 10032.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2382132" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Comparison of a lambda repressor-operator complex and a 434 repressor-operator complex reveals that three conserved residues in the helix-turn-helix (HTH) region make similar contacts in each of the crystallographically determined structures. These conserved residues and their interactions with phosphodiester oxygens help establish a frame of reference within which other HTH residues make contacts that are critical for site-specific recognition. Such "positioning contacts" may be important conserved features within families of HTH proteins. In contrast, the structural comparisons appear to rule out any simple "recognition code" at the level of detailed side chain-base pair interactions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Pabo, C O -- Aggarwal, A K -- Jordan, S R -- Beamer, L J -- Obeysekare, U R -- Harrison, S C -- GM 29109/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM 31471/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Mar 9;247(4947):1210-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2315694" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Molecular cloning and expression of a complementary DNA for inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase (1990)

    Beschreibung: A complementary DNA (cDNA) clone that encodes inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase was isolated from a rat brain cDNA expression library with the use of monoclonal antibodies. This clone had an open reading frame that would direct the synthesis of a protein consisting of 449 amino acids and with a molecular mass of 49,853 daltons. The putative protein revealed a potential calmodulin-binding site and six regions with amino acid compositions (PEST regions) common to proteins that are susceptible to calpain. Expression of the cDNA in COS cells resulted in an approximately 150-fold increase in inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase activity of these cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Choi, K Y -- Kim, H K -- Lee, S Y -- Moon, K H -- Sim, S S -- Kim, J W -- Chung, H K -- Rhee, S G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Apr 6;248(4951):64-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Biochemistry, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2157285" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The structure of a complex of recombinant hirudin and human alpha-thrombin (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-07-20
    Beschreibung: The crystallographic structure of a recombinant hirudin-thrombin complex has been solved at 2.3 angstrom (A) resolution. Hirudin consists of an NH2-terminal globular domain and a long (39 A) COOH-terminal extended domain. Residues Ile1 to Tyr3 of hirudin form a parallel beta-strand with Ser214 to Glu217 of thrombin with the nitrogen atom of Ile1 making a hydrogen bond with Ser195 O gamma atom of the catalytic site, but the specificity pocket of thrombin is not involved in the interaction. The COOH-terminal segment makes numerous electrostatic interactions with an anion-binding exosite of thrombin, whereas the last five residues are in a helical loop that forms many hydrophobic contacts. In all, 27 of the 65 residues of hirudin have contacts less than 4.0 A with thrombin (10 ion pairs and 23 hydrogen bonds). Such abundant interactions may account for the high affinity and specificity of hirudin.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rydel, T J -- Ravichandran, K G -- Tulinsky, A -- Bode, W -- Huber, R -- Roitsch, C -- Fenton, J W 2nd -- HL13160/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL43229/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jul 20;249(4966):277-80.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Michigan State University, East Lansing 48824.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2374926" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-10
    Beschreibung: A metalloantibody has been constructed with a coordination site for metals in the antigen binding pocket. The Zn(II) binding site from carbonic anhydrase B was used as a model. Three histidine residues have been placed in the light chain complementarity determining regions of a single chain antibody molecule. In contrast to the native protein, the mutant displayed metal-dependent fluorescence-quenching behavior. This response was interpreted as evidence for metal binding in the three-histidine site with relative affinities in the order Cu(II) greater than Zn(II) greater than Cd(II). The presence of metal cofactors in immunoglobulins should facilitate antibody catalysis of redox and hydrolytic reactions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Iverson, B L -- Iverson, S A -- Roberts, V A -- Getzoff, E D -- Tainer, J A -- Benkovic, S J -- Lerner, R A -- F32GM-1204702/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- IGM 37684/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 10;249(4969):659-62.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Research Institute of Scripps Clinic, La Jolla, CA 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2116666" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A new redox cofactor in eukaryotic enzymes: 6-hydroxydopa at the active site of bovine serum amine oxidase (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-05-25
    Beschreibung: An active site, cofactor-containing peptide has been obtained in high yield from bovine serum amine oxidase. Sequencing of this pentapeptide indicates: Leu-Asn-X-Asp-Tyr. Analysis of the peptide by mass spectrometry, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and proton nuclear magnetic resonance leads to the identification of X as 6-hydroxydopa. This result indicates that, contrary to previous proposals, pyrroloquinoline quinone is not the active site cofactor in mammalian copper amine oxidases. Although 6-hydroxydopa has been implicated in neurotoxicity, the data presented suggest that this compound has a functional role at an enzyme active site.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Janes, S M -- Mu, D -- Wemmer, D -- Smith, A J -- Kaur, S -- Maltby, D -- Burlingame, A L -- Klinman, J P -- GM 39296/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 May 25;248(4958):981-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2111581" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Affinity-purified, polyclonal antibodies to the gamma subunit of the dihydropyridine (DHP)-sensitive, voltage-dependent calcium channel have been used to isolate complementary DNAs to the rabbit skeletal muscle protein from an expression library. The deduced primary structure indicates that the gamma subunit is a 25,058-dalton protein that contains four transmembrane domains and two N-linked glycosylation sites, consistent with biochemical analyses showing that the gamma subunit is a glycosylated hydrophobic protein. Nucleic acid hybridization studies indicate that there is a 1200-nucleotide transcript in skeletal muscle but not in brain or heart. The gamma subunit may play a role in assembly, modulation, or the structure of the skeletal muscle calcium channel.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jay, S D -- Ellis, S B -- McCue, A F -- Williams, M E -- Vedvick, T S -- Harpold, M M -- Campbell, K P -- HL-14388/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL-37187/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL-39265/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Apr 27;248(4954):490-2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of Iowa College of Medicine, Iowa City 52242.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2158672" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Identification of a specialized adenylyl cyclase that may mediate odorant detection (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-12-07
    Beschreibung: The mammalian olfactory system may transduce odorant information via a G protein-mediated adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) cascade. A newly discovered adenylyl cyclase, termed type III, has been cloned, and its expression was localized to olfactory neurons. The type III protein resides in the sensory neuronal cilia, which project into the nasal lumen and are accessible to airborne odorants. The enzymatic activity of the type III adenylyl cyclase appears to differ from nonsensory cyclases. The large difference seen between basal and stimulated activity for the type III enzyme could allow considerable modulation of the intracellular cAMP concentration. This property may represent one mechanism of achieving sensitivity in odorant perception.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bakalyar, H A -- Reed, R R -- 5T32CA09339/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 7;250(4986):1403-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21205.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2255909" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Transmembrane protein structure: spin labeling of bacteriorhodopsin mutants (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-06-01
    Beschreibung: Transmembrane proteins serve important biological functions, yet precise information on their secondary and tertiary structure is very limited. The boundaries and structures of membrane-embedded domains in integral membrane proteins can be determined by a method based on a combination of site-specific mutagenesis and nitroxide spin labeling. The application to one polypeptide segment in bacteriorhodopsin, a transmembrane chromoprotein that functions as a light-driven proton pump is described. Single cysteine residues were introduced at 18 consecutive positions (residues 125 to 142). Each mutant was reacted with a specific spin label and reconstituted into vesicles that were shown to be functional. The relative collision frequency of each spin label with freely diffusing oxygen and membrane-impermeant chromium oxalate was estimated with power saturation EPR (electron paramagnetic resonance) spectroscopy. The results indicate that residues 129 to 131 form a short water-exposed loop, while residues 132 to 142 are membrane-embedded. The oxygen accessibility for positions 131 to 138 varies with a periodicity of 3.6 residues, thereby providing a striking demonstration of an alpha helix. The orientation of this helical segment with respect to the remainder of the protein was determined.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Altenbach, C -- Marti, T -- Khorana, H G -- Hubbell, W L -- AI 11479/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- EY05216/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- GM28289/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jun 1;248(4959):1088-92.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Jules Stein Eye Institute, University of California, Los Angeles 90024-7008.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2160734" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Molecular structure of charybdotoxin, a pore-directed inhibitor of potassium ion channels (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-13
    Beschreibung: The three-dimensional structure of charybdotoxin, a high-affinity peptide blocker of several potassium ion channels, was determined by two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (2-D NMR) spectroscopy. Unambiguous NMR assignments of backbone and side chain hydrogens were made for all 37 amino acids. The structure was determined by distance geometry and refined by nuclear Overhauser and exchange spectroscopy back calculation. The peptide is built on a foundation of three antiparallel beta strands to which other parts of the sequence are attached by three disulfide bridges. The overall shape is roughly ellipsoidal, with axes of approximately 2.5 and 1.5 nanometers. Nine of the ten charged groups are located on one side of the ellipsoid, with seven of the eight positive residues lying in a stripe 2.5 nanometers in length. The other side displays three hydrophobic residues projecting prominently into aqueous solution. The structure rationalizes several mechanistic features of charybdotoxin block of the high-conductance Ca2(+)-activated K+ channel.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Massefski, W Jr -- Redfield, A G -- Hare, D R -- Miller, C -- GM-20168/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM-31768/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- RR0031/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 3;249(4968):521-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Graduate 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/1696395" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Zinc mediation of the binding of human growth hormone to the human prolactin receptor (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-12-21
    Beschreibung: Human growth hormone (hGH) elicits a diverse set of biological activities including lactation that derives from binding to the prolactin (PRL) receptor. The binding affinity of hGH for the extracellular binding domain of the hPRL receptor (hPRLbp) was increased about 8000-fold by addition of 50 micromolar ZnCl2. Zinc was not required for binding of hGH to the hGH binding protein (hGHbp) or for binding of hPRL to the hPRLbp. Other divalent metal ions (Ca2+, Mg2+, Cu2+, Mn2+, and Co2+) at physiological concentrations did not support such strong binding. Scatchard analysis indicated a stoichiometry of one Zn2+ per hGH.hPRLbp complex. Mutational analysis showed that a cluster of three residues (His18, His21, and Glu174) in hGH and His188 from the hPRLbp (conserved in all PRL receptors but not GH receptors) are probable Zn2+ ligands. This polypeptide hormone.receptor "zinc sandwich" provides a molecular mechanism to explain why nonprimate GHs are not lactogenic and offers a molecular link between zinc deficiency and its association with altered functions of hGH.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cunningham, B C -- Bass, S -- Fuh, G -- Wells, J A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 21;250(4988):1709-12.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Protein Engineering, Genentech, Inc., South San Francisco, CA 94080.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2270485" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structures of an antibody to a peptide and its complex with peptide antigen at 2.8 A (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-05-11
    Beschreibung: The three-dimensional structures of an antibody to a peptide and its complex with the peptide antigen have been determined at 2.8 A resolution. The antigen is a synthetic 19-amino acid peptide homolog of the C helix of myohemerythrin (Mhr). The unliganded Fab' crystals are orthorhombic with two molecules per asymmetric unit, whereas the complex crystals are hexagonal with one molecule per asymmetric unit. The Fab' and the Fab'-peptide complex structures have been solved independently by molecular replacement methods and have crystallographic R factors of 0.197 and 0.215, respectively, with no water molecules included. The amino-terminal portion of the peptide sequence (NH2-Glu-Val-Val-Pro-His-Lys-Lys) is clearly interpretable in the electron density map of the Fab'-peptide complex and adopts a well-defined type II beta-turn in the concave antigen binding pocket. This same peptide amino acid sequence in native Mhr is alpha-helical. The peptide conformation when bound to the Fab' is inconsistent with binding of the Fab' to native Mhr, and suggests that binding of the Fab' to conformationally altered forms of the native Mhr or to apo-Mhr. Immunological mapping previously identified this sequence as the peptide epitope, and its fine specificity correlates well with the structural analysis. The binding pocket includes a large percentage of hydrophobic residues. The buried surfaces of the peptide and the antibody are complementary in shape and cover 460 A2 and 540 A2, respectively. These two structures now enable a comparison of a specific monoclonal Fab' both in its free and antigen complexed state. While no major changes in the antibody were observed when peptide was bound, there were some small but significant side chain and main chain rearrangements.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stanfield, R L -- Fieser, T M -- Lerner, R A -- Wilson, I A -- AI-07244/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- GM38794/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 May 11;248(4956):712-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biology, Research Institute of Scripps Clinic, La Jolla, California 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2333521" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Targeting the E1 replication protein to the papillomavirus origin of replication by complex formation with the E2 transactivator (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-12-21
    Beschreibung: The mechanism by which transcription factors stimulate DNA replication in eukaryotes is unknown. Bovine papillomavirus DNA synthesis requires the products of the viral E1 gene and the transcriptional activator protein encoded by the E2 gene. Experimental data showed that the 68-kilodalton (kD) E1 protein formed a complex with the 48-kD E2 transcription factor. This complex bound specifically to the viral origin of replication, which contains multiple binding sites for E2. Repressor proteins encoded by the E2 open reading frame failed to complex with E1 suggesting that the 162-amino acid region of E2 that participates in transactivation contained critical determinants for interaction with E1. The physical association between a replication protein and a transcription factor suggests that transcriptional activator proteins may function in targeting replication initiator proteins to their respective origins of replication.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mohr, I J -- Clark, R -- Sun, S -- Androphy, E J -- MacPherson, P -- Botchan, M R -- CA-30490/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA-42414/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 21;250(4988):1694-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California, Berkely 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2176744" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Evidence for a novel thioredoxin-like catalytic property of gonadotropic hormones (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-01-05
    Beschreibung: It has been proposed that dithiol-disulfide interchange and oxidation-reduction reactions may play a role in hormone-induced receptor activation. Inspection of the sequences of the gonadotropic hormones revealed a homologous tetrapeptide (Cys-Gly-Pro-Cys) between the beta subunit of lutropin (LH) and the active site of thioredoxin (TD). The beta subunit of follitropin (FSH) has a similar sequence (Cys-Gly-Lys-Cys). Thioredoxin is a ubiquitous protein serving as an electron donor for ribonucleotide reductase, but it also exhibits disulfide isomerase activity. The catalytic activity of TD was assayed by its ability to reactivate reduced and denatured ribonuclease. In this assay, the purified ovine FSH and bovine LH preparations tested were approximately 60 and approximately 300 times, respectively, as active as TD on a molar basis. This heretofore unsuspected catalytic property of FSH and LH may be important in understanding their mechanism of receptor activation and signal transduction.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Boniface, J J -- Reichert, L E Jr -- HD-13938/HD/NICHD NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jan 5;247(4938):61-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, Albany Medical College, NY 12208.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2104678" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Sequence-specific DNA binding by a short peptide dimer (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-17
    Beschreibung: A recently described class of DNA binding proteins is characterized by the "bZIP" motif, which consists of a basic region that contacts DNA and an adjacent "leucine zipper" that mediates protein dimerization. A peptide model for the basic region of the yeast transcriptional activator GCN4 has been developed in which the leucine zipper has been replaced by a disulfide bond. The 34-residue peptide dimer, but not the reduced monomer, binds DNA with nanomolar affinity at 4 degrees C. DNA binding is sequence-specific as judged by deoxyribonuclease I footprinting. Circular dichroism spectroscopy suggests that the peptide adopts a helical structure when bound to DNA. These results demonstrate directly that the GCN4 basic region is sufficient for sequence-specific DNA binding and suggest that a major function of the GCN4 leucine zipper is simply to mediate protein dimerization. Our approach provides a strategy for the design of short sequence-specific DNA binding peptides.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Talanian, R V -- McKnight, C J -- Kim, P S -- GM13665/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM44162/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 17;249(4970):769-71.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research, Nine Cambridge Center, MA 02142.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2389142" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Steady-state coupling of ion-channel conformations to a transmembrane ion gradient (1990)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-03-09
    Beschreibung: Under stationary conditions, opening and closing of single Torpedo electroplax chloride channels show that the number of transitions per unit time between inactivated and conducting states are unequal in opposite directions. This asymmetry, which increases with transmembrane electrochemical gradient for the chloride ion, violates the principle of microscopic reversibility and thus demonstrates that the channel-gating process is not at thermodynamic equilibrium. The results imply that the channel's conformational states are coupled to the transmembrane electrochemical gradient of the chloride ion.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Richard, E A -- Miller, C -- GM-31768/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- NS-07292/NS/NINDS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Mar 9;247(4947):1208-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Graduate 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/2156338" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The MerR metalloregulatory protein binds mercuric ion as a tricoordinate, metal-bridged dimer (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-02-23
    Beschreibung: Bacterial MerR proteins are dimeric DNA-binding proteins that mediate the Hg(II)-dependent induction of mercury resistance operons. Site-directed mutagenesis of the Bacillus sp. RC607 MerR protein reveals that three of four Cys residues per monomer are required for Hg(II) binding at the single high-affinity binding site. Inactive mutant homodimers can exchange subunits to form heterodimers active for Hg(II) binding. Studies of a heterodimer retaining only three of eight cysteine residues per dimer reveal that Cys79 in one subunit and Cys114 and Cys123 in the second subunit are necessary and sufficient for high-affinity Hg(II) binding in an asymmetric, subunit bridging coordination complex.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Helmann, J D -- Ballard, B T -- Walsh, C T -- GM20011/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Feb 23;247(4945):946-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biological Chemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2305262" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Dissociation of gp120 from HIV-1 virions induced by soluble CD4 (1990)

    Beschreibung: The CD4 antigen is the high affinity cellular receptor for the human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1). Binding of recombinant soluble CD4 (sCD4) or the purified V1 domain of sCD4 to the surface glycoprotein gp120 on virions resulted in rapid dissociation of gp120 from its complex with the transmembrane glycoprotein gp41. This may represent the initial stage in virus-cell and cell-cell fusion. Shedding of gp120 from virions induced by sCD4 may also contribute to the mechanism by which these soluble receptor molecules neutralize HIV-1.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Moore, J P -- McKeating, J A -- Weiss, R A -- Sattentau, Q J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Nov 23;250(4984):1139-42.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Chester Beatty Laboratories, Institute of Cancer Research, London, United Kingdom.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2251501" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Alteration of alpha 1 Na+,K(+)-ATPase 86Rb+ influx by a single amino acid substitution (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-31
    Beschreibung: The sodium- and potassium-dependent adenosine triphosphatase (Na+,K(+)-ATPase) maintains the transmembrane Na+ gradient to which is coupled all active cellular transport systems. The R and S alleles of the gene encoding the Na+,K(+)-ATPase alpha 1 subunit isoform were identified in Dahl salt-resistant (DR) and Dahl salt-sensitive (DS) rats, respectively. Characterization of the S allele-specific Na+,K(+)-ATPase alpha 1 complementary DNA identified a leucine substitution of glutamine at position 276. This mutation alters the hydropathy profile of a region in proximity to T3(Na), the trypsin-sensitive site that is only detected in the presence of Na+. This mutation causes a decrease in the rubidium-86 influx of S allele-specific sodium pumps, thus marking a domain in the Na+,K(+)-ATPase alpha subunit important for K+ transport, and supporting the hypothesis of a putative role of these pumps in hypertension.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Herrera, V L -- Ruiz-Opazo, N -- HL 01967/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL 18318/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL 39267/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 31;249(4972):1023-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Section of Molecular Genetics, Whitaker Cardiovascular Institute, Boston University School of Medicine, MA 02118.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1975705" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

The strain is sensitive to a second type of ICP that apparently recognizes a different receptor.

    Rhodopsin mutants that bind but fail to activate transducin (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-10-05
    Beschreibung: Rhodopsin is a member of a family of receptors that contain seven transmembrane helices and are coupled to G proteins. The nature of the interactions between rhodopsin mutants and the G protein, transduction (Gt), was investigated by flash photolysis in order to monitor directly Gt binding and dissociation. Three mutant opsins with alterations in their cytoplasmic loops bound 11-cis-retinal to yield pigments with native rhodopsin absorption spectra, but they failed to stimulate the guanosine triphosphatase activity of Gt. The opsin mutations included reversal of a charged pair conserved in all G protein-coupled receptors at the cytoplasmic border of the third transmembrane helix (mutant CD1), replacement of 13 amino acids in the second cytoplasmic loop (mutant CD2), and deletion of 13 amino acids from the third cytoplasmic loop (mutant EF1). Whereas mutant CD1 failed to bind Gt, mutants CD2 and EF1 showed normal Gt binding but failed to release Gt in the presence of guanosine triphosphate. Therefore, it appears that at least the second and third cytoplasmic loops of rhodopsin are required for activation of bound Gt.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Franke, R R -- Konig, B -- Sakmar, T P -- Khorana, H G -- Hofmann, K P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Oct 5;250(4977):123-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge 02139.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2218504" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Secondary structure is the major determinant for interaction of HIV rev protein with RNA (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-02-16
    Beschreibung: A region in the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) env message, with the potential to form a complex secondary structure (designated RRE), interacts with the rev protein (Rev). This interaction is believed to mediate export of HIV structural messenger RNAs from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. In this report the regions essential for Rev interaction with the RRE are further characterized and the functional significance of Rev-RRE interaction in vivo is examined. A single hairpin loop structure within the RRE was found to be a primary determinant for Rev binding in vitro and Rev response in vivo. Maintenance of secondary structure, rather than primary nucleotide sequence alone, appeared to be necessary for Rev-RNA interaction, which distinguishes it from the mechanism for cis-acting elements in DNA. Limited changes within the 200 nucleotides, which preserved the proper RRE conformational structure, were well tolerated for Rev binding and function. Thus, variation among the RRE elements present in the diverse HIV isolates would have little, if any, effect on Rev responsiveness.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Olsen, H S -- Nelbock, P -- Cochrane, A W -- Rosen, C A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Feb 16;247(4944):845-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Oncology and Virology, Roche Institute of Molecular Biology, Nutley, NJ 07110.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2406903" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Interfacial catalysis: the mechanism of phospholipase A2 (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-12-14
    Beschreibung: A chemical description of the action of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) can now be inferred with confidence from three high-resolution x-ray crystal structures. The first is the structure of the PLA2 from the venom of the Chinese cobra (Naja naja atra) in a complex with a phosphonate transition-state analogue. This enzyme is typical of a large, well-studied homologous family of PLA2S. The second is a similar complex with the evolutionarily distant bee-venom PLA2. The third structure is the uninhibited PLA2 from Chinese cobra venom. Despite the different molecular architectures of the cobra and bee-venom PLA2s, the transition-state analogue interacts in a nearly identical way with the catalytic machinery of both enzymes. The disposition of the fatty-acid side chains suggests a common access route of the substrate from its position in the lipid aggregate to its productive interaction with the active site. Comparison of the cobra-venom complex with the uninhibited enzyme indicates that optimal binding and catalysis at the lipid-water interface is due to facilitated substrate diffusion from the interfacial binding surface to the catalytic site rather than an allosteric change in the enzyme's structure. However, a second bound calcium ion changes its position upon the binding of the transition-state analogue, suggesting a mechanism for augmenting the critical electrophile.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3443688/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3443688/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Scott, D L -- White, S P -- Otwinowski, Z -- Yuan, W -- Gelb, M H -- Sigler, P B -- GM22324/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HL36235/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- R01 HL036235/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 14;250(4987):1541-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2274785" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: The 2.0 angstroms crystal structure of a complex containing bee-venom phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and a phosphonate transition-state analogue was solved by multiple isomorphous replacement. The electron-density map is sufficiently detailed to visualize the proximal sugars of the enzyme's N-linked carbohydrate and a single molecule of the transition-state analogue bound ot its active center. Although bee-venom PLA2 does not belong to the large homologous Class I/II family that encompasses most other well-studied PLA2s, there is segmental sequence similarity and conservation of many functional substructures. Comparison of the bee-venom enzyme with other phospholipase structures provides compelling evidence for a common catalytic mechanism.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Scott, D L -- Otwinowski, Z -- Gelb, M H -- Sigler, P B -- GM22324/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HL36235/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 14;250(4987):1563-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2274788" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Publikationsdatum: 1990-07-20
    Beschreibung: Studies of the subunit interactions of the multicomponent T cell antigen receptor (TCR) revealed that specific pairs of chains have the ability to assemble after transfection into fibroblasts. For one such pair, TCR-alpha and CD3-delta, their ability to assemble was encoded by their transmembrane domains. The specificity of this interaction suggests that well-defined helical interactions in the membrane can explain the assembly of some multichain membrane complexes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Manolios, N -- Bonifacino, J S -- Klausner, R D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jul 20;249(4966):274-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cell Biology and Metabolism Branch, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2142801" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Deciphering the message in protein sequences: tolerance to amino acid substitutions (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-03-16
    Beschreibung: An amino acid sequence encodes a message that determines the shape and function of a protein. This message is highly degenerate in that many different sequences can code for proteins with essentially the same structure and activity. Comparison of different sequences with similar messages can reveal key features of the code and improve understanding of how a protein folds and how it performs its function.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bowie, J U -- Reidhaar-Olson, J F -- Lim, W A -- Sauer, R T -- AI-15706/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Mar 16;247(4948):1306-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge 02139.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2315699" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Stable, monomeric variants of lambda Cro obtained by insertion of a designed beta-hairpin sequence (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-12-21
    Beschreibung: lambda Cro is a dimeric DNA binding protein. Random mutagenesis and a selection for Cro activity have been used to identify the contacts between Cro subunits that are crucial for maintenance of a stably folded structure. To obtain equivalent contacts in a monomeric system, a Cro variant was designed and constructed in which the antiparallel beta-ribbon that forms the dimer interface was replaced by a beta-hairpin. The engineered monomer has a folded structure similar to wild type, is significantly more stable than wild type, and exhibits novel half-operator binding activity.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mossing, M C -- Sauer, R T -- AI-16982/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 21;250(4988):1712-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge 02139.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2148648" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A T cell-specific transcriptional enhancer within the human T cell receptor delta locus (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-03-09
    Beschreibung: The T cell antigen receptor (TCR) delta gene is located within the TCR alpha locus. A T cell-specific transcriptional enhancer, distinct from the TCR alpha enhancer, has been identified within the J delta 3-C delta intron of the human T cell receptor delta gene. This enhancer activates transcription from the V delta 1 and V delta 3 promoters as well as from heterologous promoters. Enhancer activity has been localized to a 250-bp region that contains multiple binding sites for nuclear proteins. Thus, transcriptional control of the TCR delta and TCR alpha genes is mediated by distinct regulatory elements.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Redondo, J M -- Hata, S -- Brocklehurst, C -- Krangel, M S -- R01-GM41052/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Mar 9;247(4947):1225-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Tumor Virology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2156339" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Solution structure of the glucocorticoid receptor DNA-binding domain (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-07-13
    Beschreibung: The three-dimensional structure of the DNA-binding domain (DBD) of the glucocorticoid receptor has been determined by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and distance geometry. The structure of a 71-residue protein fragment containing two "zinc finger" domains is based on a large set of proton-proton distances derived from nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectra, hydrogen bonds in previously identified secondary structure elements, and coordination of two zinc atoms by conserved cysteine residues. The DBD is found to consist of a globular body from which the finger regions extend. A model of the dimeric complex between the DBD and the glucocorticoid response element is proposed. The model is consistent with previous results indicating that specific amino acid residues of the DBD are involved in protein-DNA and protein-protein interactions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hard, T -- Kellenbach, E -- Boelens, R -- Maler, B A -- Dahlman, K -- Freedman, L P -- Carlstedt-Duke, J -- Yamamoto, K R -- Gustafsson, J A -- Kaptein, R -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jul 13;249(4965):157-60.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of Utrecht, The Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2115209" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Transport protein genes in the murine MHC: possible implications for antigen processing (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-12-21
    Beschreibung: T lymphocyte activation requires recognition by the T cell of peptide fragments of foreign antigen bound to a self major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule. Genetic evidence suggests that part of the class II region of the MHC influences the expression, in trans, of MHC class I antigens on the cell surface, by regulating the availability of peptides that bind to and stabilize the class I molecule. Two closely related genes in this region, HAM1 and HAM2, were cloned and had sequence similarities to a superfamily of genes involved in the ATP-dependent transport of a variety of substrates across cell membranes. Thus, these MHC-linked transport protein genes may be involved in transporting antigen, or peptide fragments thereof, from the cytoplasm into a membrane-bounded compartment containing newly synthesized MHC molecules.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Monaco, J J -- Cho, S -- Attaya, M -- GM38774/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 21;250(4988):1723-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology and Immunology, Medical College of Virginia/Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond 23298-0678.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2270487" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Design and synthesis of a peptide having chymotrypsin-like esterase activity (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-06-22
    Beschreibung: A peptide having enzyme-like catalytic activity has been designed and synthesized. Computer modeling was used to design a bundle of four short parallel amphipathic helical peptides bearing the serine protease catalytic site residues serine, histidine, and aspartic acid at the amino end of the bundle in the same spatial arrangement as in chymotrypsin (ChTr). The necessary "oxyanion hole" and substrate binding pocket for acetyltyrosine ethyl ester, a classical ChTr substrate, were included in the design. The four chains were linked covalently at their carboxyl ends. The peptide has affinity for ChTr ester substrates similar to that of ChTr and hydrolyzes them at rates approximately 0.01 that of ChTr; total turnovers greater than 100 have been observed. The peptide is inhibited by ChTr specific inhibitors and is inactive toward benzoyl arginine ethyl ester, a trypsin substrate. The peptide is inactivated by heating above 60 degrees C, but recovers full catalytic activity upon cooling and lyophilization from acetic acid.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hahn, K W -- Klis, W A -- Stewart, J M -- BRS 888/RS/DRS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jun 22;248(4962):1544-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry, University of Colorado Medical School, Denver 80262.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2360048" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Conserved sequence and structural elements in the HIV-1 principal neutralizing determinant (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-24
    Beschreibung: The principal neutralizing determinant (PND) of human immunodeficiency virus HIV-1 is part of a disulfide bridged loop in the third variable region of the external envelope protein, gp120. Analysis of the amino acid sequences of this domain from 245 different HIV-1 isolates revealed that the PND is less variable than thought originally. Conservation to better than 80 percent of the amino acids in 9 out of 14 positions in the central portion of the PND and the occurrence of particular oligopeptide sequences in a majority of the isolates suggest that there are constraints on PND variability. One constraining influence may be the structural motif (beta strand--type II beta turn--beta strand--alpha helix) predicted for the consensus PND sequence by a neural network approach. Isolates with a PND similar to the commonly investigated human T cell lymphoma virus IIIB (HTLV-IIIB) and LAV-1 (BRU) strains were rare, and only 14 percent of sera from 86 randomly selected HIV-1 seropositive donors contained antibodies that recognized the PND of these virus isolates. In contrast, over 65 percent of these sera reacted with peptides containing more common PND sequences. These results suggest that HIV vaccine immunogens chosen because of their similarity to the consensus PND sequence and structure are likely to induce antibodies that neutralize a majority of HIV-1 isolates.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉LaRosa, G J -- Davide, J P -- Weinhold, K -- Waterbury, J A -- Profy, A T -- Lewis, J A -- Langlois, A J -- Dreesman, G R -- Boswell, R N -- Shadduck, P -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 24;249(4971):932-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Repligen Corporation, Cambridge, MA 02139.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2392685" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Inhibition of factor VIIa-tissue factor coagulation activity by a hybrid protein (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-06-25
    Beschreibung: Lipoprotein-associated coagulation inhibitor (LACI) appears to inhibit tissue factor (TF)-induced blood coagulation by forming a quaternary inhibitory complex containing factor Xa, LACI, factor VIIa, and TF. A genetically engineered hybrid protein consisting of the light chain of factor Xa and the first Kunitz-type inhibitor domain of LACI is shown to directly inhibit the activity of the factor VIIa-TF catalytic complex. Unlike inhibition of factor VIIa-TF activity by native LACI, inhibition by the hybrid protein is not dependent on factor Xa. In an assay of TF-induced coagulation, 50% TF inhibition occurs with hybrid protein at 35 nanograms per milliliter, whereas LACI at 2.5 micrograms per milliliter is required for an equivalent effect. gamma-Carboxylation of glutamic acid residues in the factor Xa light chain portion of the hybrid protein is required for inhibitory activity, indicating that the first Kunitz-type domain of LACI alone is not sufficient for inhibition of factor VIIa-TF.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Girard, T J -- MacPhail, L A -- Likert, K M -- Novotny, W F -- Miletich, J P -- Broze, G J Jr -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jun 15;248(4961):1421-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Hematology/Oncology, Jewish Hospital, Washington University Medical Center, St. Louis, MO 63110.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1972598" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    The response of living cells to very weak electric fields: the thermal noise limit (1990)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-01-26
    Beschreibung: A physical model in which cells are considered as possible detectors of very weak periodic electric fields yields a general relation between cell size and both thermally induced fluctuations in membrane potential and the maximum change in membrane potential caused by an applied field. The simplest version of the model provides a broad-band estimate of the smallest applied electric field to which membrane macromolecules can directly respond (about 10(-3) volt per centimeter). Much smaller fields (10(-6) volt per centimeter) can be detected if there is a response in only a narrow band of frequencies or if signal averaging occurs through field-induced variation in the catalytic activity of membrane-associated enzymes. Both extensions of the simplest version remove the apparent violation of the thermal noise limit found in some experiments.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Weaver, J C -- Astumian, R D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jan 26;247(4941):459-62.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge 02139.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2300806" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    An antibody binding site on cytochrome c defined by hydrogen exchange and two-dimensional NMR (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-17
    Beschreibung: The interaction of a protein antigen, horse cytochrome c (cyt c), with a monoclonal antibody has been studied by hydrogen-deuterium (H-D) exchange labeling and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (2D NMR) methods. The H-exchange rate of residues in three discontiguous regions of the cyt c polypeptide backbone was slowed by factors up to 340-fold in the antibody-antigen complex compared with free cyt c. The protected residues, 36 to 38, 59, 60, 64 to 67, 100, and 101, and their hydrogen-bond acceptors, are brought together in the three-dimensional structure to form a contiguous, largely exposed protein surface with an area of about 750 square angstroms. The interaction site determined in this way is consistent with prior epitope mapping studies and includes several residues that were not previously identified. The hydrogen exchange labeling approach can be used to map binding sites on small proteins in antibody-antigen complexes and may be applicable to protein-protein and protein-ligand interactions in general.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3432411/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3432411/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Paterson, Y -- Englander, S W -- Roder, H -- GM 31847/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM 35926/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM031847/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- S07-RR-05415-28/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 17;249(4970):755-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia 19104.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1697101" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A novel nucleoprotein complex at a replication origin (1990)

    Publikationsdatum: 1990-05-25
    Beschreibung: The viral protein p6, required for the protein-primed initiation of replication of Bacillus subtilis phage phi 29, forms a nucleoprotein complex at the viral replication origins that shows novel features. Deoxyribonuclease I and hydroxyl radical footprinting data, as well as the induction of positive supercoiling, support a model in which a DNA right-handed superhelix tightly wraps around a multimeric p6 core. The interaction occurs through the DNA minor groove. The activity of p6 not only requires the formation of the complex but also its correct positioning, indicating that the other proteins involved in the initiation of replication recognize, at a precise position, either the p6 core or the DNA conformational change induced by p6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Serrano, M -- Salas, M -- Hermoso, J M -- 5 R01 GM 27242-10/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 May 25;248(4958):1012-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Centro de Biologia Molecular (CSIC-UAM), Universidad Autonoma, Madrid, Spain.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2111580" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Crystal structure of cobra-venom phospholipase A2 in a complex with a transition-state analogue (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-12-14
    Beschreibung: The crystal structure of a complex between a phosphonate transition-state analogue and the phospholipase A2 (PLA2) from Naja naja atra venom has been solved and refined to a resolution of 2.0 angstroms. The identical stereochemistry of the two complexes that comprise the crystal's asymmetric unit indicates both the manner in which the transition state is stabilized and how the hydrophobic fatty acyl chains of the substrate are accommodated by the enzyme during interfacial catalysis. The critical features that suggest the chemistry of binding and catalysis are the same as those seen in the crystal structure of a similar complex formed with the evolutionarily distant bee-venom PLA2.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉White, S P -- Scott, D L -- Otwinowski, Z -- Gelb, M H -- Sigler, P B -- GM22324/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- HL 36235/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Dec 14;250(4987):1560-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06511.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2274787" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Inclusion of thermal motion in crystallographic structures by restrained molecular dynamics (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-09-07
    Beschreibung: A protein crystal structure is usually described by one single structure, which largely omits the dynamical behavior of the molecule. A molecular dynamics method with a time-averaged crystallographic restraint was used to overcome this limitation. This method yields an ensemble of structures in which all possible thermal motions are allowed, that is, in additional to isotropic distributions, anisotropic and anharmonic positional distributions occur as well. In the case of bovine pancreatic phospholipase A2, this description markedly improves agreement with the observed x-ray diffraction data compared to the results of the classical one-model structure description. Time-averaged crystallographically restrained molecular dynamics reveals large mobilities in the loops involved in lipid bilayer association.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Gros, P -- van Gunsteren, W F -- Hol, W G -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Sep 7;249(4973):1149-52.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉BIOSON Research Institute, University of Groningen, The Netherlands.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2396108" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Calcium-induced peptide association to form an intact protein domain: 1H NMR structural evidence (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-07-20
    Beschreibung: The 70-residue carboxyl-terminal domain of the muscle contractile protein troponin-C contains two helix-loop-helix calcium (Ca)-binding sites that are related to each other by approximate twofold rotational symmetry. Hydrophobic residues from the helices and a short three residue beta sheet at the interface of the two sites act to stabilize the protein domain in the presence of Ca. A synthetic 34-residue peptide representing one of these sites (site III) has been synthesized and studied by H-1 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In solution this peptide undergoes a Ca-induced conformational change to form the helix-loop-helix Ca-binding motif. Two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser effect spectra have provided evidence for the formation of a beta sheet and interactions between several hydrophobic residues from opposing helices as found in troponin-C. It is proposed that a symmetric two-site dimer similar in tertiary structure to the carboxyl-terminal domain of troponin-C forms from the assembly of two site III peptides in the Ca-bound form.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shaw, G S -- Hodges, R S -- Sykes, B D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jul 20;249(4966):280-3.〈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/2374927" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Engineering human prolactin to bind to the human growth hormone receptor (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-03-23
    Beschreibung: A strategy of iterative site-directed mutagenesis and binding analysis was used to incorporate the receptor-binding determinants from human growth hormone (hGH) into the nonbinding homolog, human prolactin (hPRL). The complementary DNA for hPRL was cloned, expressed in Escherichia coli, and mutated to introduce sequentially those substitutions from hGH that were predicted by alanine-scanning mutagenesis and other studies to be most critical for binding to the hGH receptor from human liver. After seven rounds of site-specific mutagenesis, a variant of hPRL was obtained containing eight mutations with an association constant for the hGH receptor that was increased more than 10,000-fold. This hPRL variant binds one-sixth as strongly as wild-type hGH, but shares only 26 percent overall sequence identity with hGH. These studies show the feasibility of recruiting receptor-binding properties from distantly related and functionally divergent hormones and show that a detailed functional database can be used to guide the design of a protein-protein interface in the absence of direct structural information.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Cunningham, B C -- Henner, D J -- Wells, J A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Mar 23;247(4949 Pt 1):1461-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Protein Engineering, Genentech, Inc.

    Peptide immunogen mimicry of a protein-specific structural epitope on human choriogonadotropin (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-05-11
    Beschreibung: It is a challenge to construct synthetic immunogens that elicit antibodies (Abs) both directed to conformational epitopes and specific for a complex protein like human choriogonadotropin (hCG). A monoclonal antibody specific for hCG bound to regions around Lys45 of the alpha subunit (hCG alpha) and Asp112 of the beta subunit (hCG beta). A peptide comprising residues 46 to 55 of hCG alpha and residues 106 to 116 of hCG beta elicited Abs in rabbits that were directed to a discontinuous epitope and were specific for hCG. These Abs inhibited the binding of hCG to its receptor. Thus, a synthetic immunogen can mimic a conformational-specific epitope and can be useful for vaccine development.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Bidart, J M -- Troalen, F -- Ghillani, P -- Rouas, N -- Razafindratsita, A -- Bohuon, C -- Bellet, D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 May 11;248(4956):736-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Departement de Biologie Clinique, Institut Gustave-Roussy, Villejuif, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1692160" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A 49-kilodalton phosphoprotein in the Drosophila photoreceptor is an arrestin homolog (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-04-27
    Beschreibung: The gene encoding the 49-kilodalton protein that undergoes light-induced phosphorylation in the Drosophila photoreceptor has been isolated and characterized. The encoded protein has 401 amino acid residues and a molecular mass of 44,972 daltons, and it shares approximately 42 percent amino acid sequence identity with arrestin (S-antigen), which has been proposed to quench the light-induced cascade of guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate hydrolysis in vertebrate photoreceptors. Unlike the 49-kilodalton protein, however, arrestin, which appears to bind to phosphorylated rhodopsin, has not itself been reported to undergo phosphorylation. In vitro, Ca2+ was the only agent found that would stimulate the phosphorylation of the 49-kilodalton protein. The phosphorylation of this arrestin-like protein in vivo may therefore be triggered by a Ca2+ signal that is likely to be regulated by light-activated phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yamada, T -- Takeuchi, Y -- Komori, N -- Kobayashi, H -- Sakai, Y -- Hotta, Y -- Matsumoto, H -- EY06595/EY/NEI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Apr 27;248(4954):483-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, Oklahoma City 73190.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2158671" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Molecular switch for signal transduction: structural differences between active and inactive forms of protooncogenic ras proteins (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-02-23
    Beschreibung: Ras proteins participate as a molecular switch in the early steps of the signal transduction pathway that is associated with cell growth and differentiation. When the protein is in its GTP complexed form it is active in signal transduction, whereas it is inactive in its GDP complexed form. A comparison of eight three-dimensional structures of ras proteins in four different crystal lattices, five with a nonhydrolyzable GTP analog and three with GDP, reveals that the "on" and "off" states of the switch are distinguished by conformational differences that span a length of more than 40 A, and are induced by the gamma-phosphate. The most significant differences are localized in two regions: residues 30 to 38 (the switch I region) in the second loop and residues 60 to 76 (the switch II region) consisting of the fourth loop and the short alpha-helix that follows the loop. Both regions are highly exposed and form a continuous strip on the molecular surface most likely to be the recognition sites for the effector and receptor molecule(or molecules). The conformational differences also provide a structural basis for understanding the biological and biochemical changes of the proteins due to oncogenic mutations, autophosphorylation, and GTP hydrolysis, and for understanding the interactions with other proteins.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Milburn, M V -- Tong, L -- deVos, A M -- Brunger, A -- Yamaizumi, Z -- Nishimura, S -- Kim, S H -- CA45593/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Feb 23;247(4945):939-45.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2406906" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Ribonuclease H digests the RNA strand of duplex RNA.DNA hybrids into oligonucleotides. This activity is indispensable for retroviral infection and is involved in bacterial replication. The ribonuclease H from Escherichia coli is homologous with the retroviral proteins. The crystal structure of the E. coli enzyme reveals a distinctive alpha-beta tertiary fold. Analysis of the molecular model implicates a carboxyl triad in the catalytic mechanism and suggests a likely mode for the binding of RNA.DNA substrates. The structure was determined by the method of multiwavelength anomalous diffraction (MAD) with the use of synchrotron data from a crystal of the recombinant selenomethionyl protein.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yang, W -- Hendrickson, W A -- Crouch, R J -- Satow, Y -- GM 34102/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Sep 21;249(4975):1398-405.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics, Columbia University, New York, NY 10032.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2169648" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Electrostatic and steric contributions to regulation at the active site of isocitrate dehydrogenase (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-31
    Beschreibung: The isocitrate dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli is regulated by covalent modification at the active site rather than, as expected, at an allosteric site. As a means of evaluating the mechanism of regulation, the kinetics of the substrate, 2R,3S-isocitrate, and a substrate analog, 2R-malate, were compared for the native, phosphorylated, and mutant enzymes. Phosphorylation decreases activity by more than a factor of 10(6) for the true substrate, but causes minor changes in the activity of the substrate analog. The kinetic results indicate that electrostatic repulsion and steric hindrance between the phosphoryl moiety and the gamma carboxyl group of 2R,3S-isocitrate are the major causes of the inactivation, with a lesser contribution from the loss of a hydrogen bond.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dean, A M -- Koshland, D E Jr -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 31;249(4972):1044-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Molecular and Cell Biology, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2204110" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Selectivity changes in site-directed mutants of the VDAC ion channel: structural implications (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-03-09
    Beschreibung: The gene encoding the yeast mitochondrial outer membrane channel VDAC was subjected to site-directed mutagenesis to change amino acids at 29 positions to residues differing in charge from the wild-type sequence. The mutant genes were then expressed in yeast, and the physiological consequences of single and multiple amino acid changes were assessed after isolation and insertion of mutant channels into phospholipid bilayers. Selectivity changes were observed at 14 sites distributed throughout the length of the molecule. These sites are likely to define the position of the protein walls lining the aqueous pore and hence, the transmembrane segments. These results have been used to develop a model of the open state of the channel in which each polypeptide contributes 12 beta strands and one alpha helix to form the aqueous transmembrane pathway.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Blachly-Dyson, E -- Peng, S -- Colombini, M -- Forte, M -- GM35759/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Mar 9;247(4947):1233-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Vollum Institute for Advanced Biomedical Research, Oregon Health Sciences University, Portland 97201.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1690454" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Sequence-specific DNA binding by the c-Myc protein (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-11-23
    Beschreibung: While it has been known for some time that the c-Myc protein binds to random DNA sequences, no sequence-specific binding activity has been detected. At its carboxyl terminus, c-Myc contains a basic--helix-loop-helix (bHLH) motif, which is important for dimerization and specific DNA binding, as demonstrated for other bHLH protein family members. Of those studied, most bHLH proteins bind to sites that contain a CA- -TG consensus. In this study, the technique of selected and amplified binding-sequence (SAAB) imprinting was used to identify a DNA sequence that was recognized by c-Myc. A purified carboxyl-terminal fragment of human c-Myc that contained the bHLH domain bound in vitro in a sequence-specific manner to the sequence, CACGTG. These results suggest that some of the biological functions of Myc family proteins are accomplished by sequence-specific DNA binding that is mediated by the carboxyl-terminal region of the protein.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Blackwell, T K -- Kretzner, L -- Blackwood, E M -- Eisenman, R N -- Weintraub, H -- R01 CA20525/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA09437/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Nov 23;250(4984):1149-51.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Basic Sciences, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, WA 98104.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2251503" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Differences and similarities in DNA-binding preferences of MyoD and E2A protein complexes revealed by binding site selection (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-11-23
    Beschreibung: A technique was developed for studying protein-DNA recognition that can be applied to any purified protein, partially purified protein, or cloned gene. From oligonucleotides in which particular positions are of random sequence, that subset to which a given protein binds is amplified by the polymerase chain reaction and sequenced as a pool. These selected and amplified binding site (SAAB) "imprints" provide a characteristic set of preferred sequences for protein binding. With this technique, it was shown that homo- and heterooligomers of the helix-loop-helix proteins MyoD and E2A recognize a common consensus sequence, CA--TG, but otherwise bind to flanking and internal positions with different sequence preferences that suggest half-site recognition. These findings suggest that different combinations of dimeric proteins can have different binding sequence preferences.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Blackwell, T K -- Weintraub, H -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Nov 23;250(4984):1104-10.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Genetics, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, WA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2174572" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Binding of the Wilms' tumor locus zinc finger protein to the EGR-1 consensus sequence (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-11-30
    Beschreibung: The Wilms' tumor locus (WTL) at 11p13 contains a gene that encodes a zinc finger-containing protein that has characteristics of a DNA-binding protein. However, binding of this protein to DNA in a sequence-specific manner has not been demonstrated. A synthetic gene was constructed that contained the zinc finger region, and the protein was expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant protein was used to identify a specific DNA binding site from a pool of degenerate oligonucleotides. The binding sites obtained were similar to the sequence recognized by the early growth response-1 (EGR-1) gene product, a zinc finger-containing protein that is induced by mitogenic stimuli. A mutation in the zinc finger region of the protein originally identified in a Wilms' tumor patient abolished its DNA-binding activity. These results suggest that the WTL protein may act at the DNA binding site of a growth factor-inducible gene and that loss of DNA-binding activity contributes to the tumorigenic process.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rauscher, F J 3rd -- Morris, J F -- Tournay, O E -- Cook, D M -- Curran, T -- CA0917-15/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA10817/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- CA23413/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Nov 30;250(4985):1259-62.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Wistar Institute, Philadelphia, PA 19104.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2244209" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: A two-fold (C2) symmetric inhibitor of the protease of human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) has been designed on the basis of the three-dimensional symmetry of the enzyme active site. The symmetric molecule inhibited both protease activity and acute HIV-1 infection in vitro, was at least 10,000-fold more potent against HIV-1 protease than against related enzymes, and appeared to be stable to degradative enzymes. The 2.8 angstrom crystal structure of the inhibitor-enzyme complex demonstrated that the inhibitor binds to the enzyme in a highly symmetric fashion.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Erickson, J -- Neidhart, D J -- VanDrie, J -- Kempf, D J -- Wang, X C -- Norbeck, D W -- Plattner, J J -- Rittenhouse, J W -- Turon, M -- Wideburg, N -- AI 27220/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 3;249(4968):527-33.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Computer-Assisted Molecular Design, Abbott Laboratories, Abbott Park, IL 60064.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2200122" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: According to the endosymbiont hypothesis, mitochondria have lost the autonomy of their prokaryotic ancestors. They have to import most of their proteins from the cytosol because the mitochondrial genome codes for only a small percentage of the polypeptides that reside in the organelle.

    Beschreibung: Activity of the immunoglobulin heavy and kappa light chain gene enhancers depends on a complex interplay of ubiquitous and developmentally regulated proteins. Two complementary DNAs were isolated that encode proteins, denoted ITF-1 and ITF-2, that are expressed in a variety of cell types and bind the microE5/kappa 2 motif found in both heavy and kappa light chain enhancers. The complementary DNAs are the products of distinct genes, yet both ITF-1 and ITF-2 are structurally and functionally similar. The two proteins interact with one another through their putative helix-loop-helix motifs and each possesses a distinct domain that dictates transcription activation.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Henthorn, P -- Kiledjian, M -- Kadesch, T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jan 26;247(4941):467-70.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Philadelphia, PA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2105528" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

The host provided an overall hydrophobic binding site, but one that could recognize the positive charge of the quaternary ammonium group of ACh through a stabilizing interaction with the electron-rich pi systems of the aromatic rings (cation-pi interaction).

    Structural motif of the GCN4 DNA binding domain characterized by affinity cleaving (1990)

    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-05-18
    Beschreibung: The NH2-terminal locations of a dimer containing the DNA binding domain of the yeast transcriptional activator GCN4 have been mapped on the binding sites 5'-CTGACTAAT-3' and 5'-ATGACTCTT-3'. Affinity cleaving was effected by synthetic GCN4 proteins with Fe.EDTA moieties at the NH2-terminus. Analysis of the DNA cleavage patterns for dimers of the Fe.EDTA-proteins corresponding to GCN4 residues 222 to 281 and 226 to 281 revealed that the NH2-termini were in the major groove nine to ten base pairs apart and were symmetrically displaced four to five base pairs from the central C of the recognition site. This result is consistent with the Y-shaped scissor grip-leucine zipper model recently proposed for a class of DNA binding proteins important in the regulation of gene expression.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Oakley, M G -- Dervan, P B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 May 18;248(4957):847-50.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena 91125.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2111578" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Incubation of a 90-kilodalton ferritin repressor protein (FRP), either free or complexed with an L-ferritin transcript, with hemin or Co3+-protoporphyrin IX prevented subsequent repression of ferritin synthesis in a wheat germ extract. Neither FeCl3 in combinations with H2O2, nor Fe3+ or Fe2+ chelated with EDTA, nor Zn2+-protoporphyrin IX, nor protoporphyrin IX caused significant inactivation of FRP. FRP that had been inactivated by hemin remained chemically intact, as revealed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Inclusion of chelators of iron or free radical scavengers did not alter the inactivation produced by hemin.

    Partial symmetrization of the photosynthetic reaction center (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-06-15
    Beschreibung: The bacterial photosynthetic reaction center (RC) is a pigmented intrinsic membrane protein that performs the primary charge separation event of photosynthesis, thereby converting light to chemical energy. The RC pigments are bound primarily by two homologous peptides, the L and M subunits, each containing five transmembrane helices. These alpha helices and pigments are arranged in an approximate C2 symmetry and form two possible electron transfer pathways. Only one of these pathways is actually used. In an attempt to identify nonhomologous residues that are responsible for functional differences between the two branches, homologous helical regions that interact extensively with the pigments were genetically symmetrized (that is, exchanged). For example, replacement of the fourth transmembrane helix (D helix) in the M subunit with the homologous helix from the L subunit yields photosynthetically inactive RCs lacking a critical photoactive pigment. Photosynthetic revertants have been isolated in which single amino acid substitutions (intragenic suppressors) compensate for this partial symmetrization.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Robles, S J -- Breton, J -- Youvan, D C -- RIGM42645A/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Jun 15;248(4961):1402-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Graduate Program in Applied Biological Sciences, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge 02139.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2192455" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Beschreibung: Several mutants derived from transformed human B cell lines are defective in expressing major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II genes. The failure to express a class II gene in at least one such mutant line has been mapped to the MHC class II X box, a conserved transcriptional element in the promoter region. A complementary DNA encoding a DNA-binding protein (human X box binding protein, hXBP-1) whose target is the human DR alpha X box and the 3' flanking region has now been cloned. This complementary DNA encoded a protein with structural similarities to the c-jun proto-oncogene product, and its target sequence was closely related to the palindromic target sequence of c-jun. Mutation of the hXBP-1 DNA target sequence decreased DR alpha promoter activity in vivo. These studies suggest that the hXBP-1 protein acts as a transcription factor in B cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Liou, H C -- Boothby, M R -- Finn, P W -- Davidon, R -- Nabavi, N -- Zeleznik-Le, N J -- Ting, J P -- Glimcher, L H -- CA42771-01/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM36864/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01-CA48185/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Mar 30;247(4950):1581-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Cancer Biology, Harvard School of Public Health, Boston, MA 02115.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2321018" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A beta 3 integrin mutation abolishes ligand binding and alters divalent cation-dependent conformation (1990)

    Publikationsdatum: 1990-08-24
    Beschreibung: The ligand-binding function of integrin adhesion receptors depends on divalent cations. A mutant alpha IIb beta 3 integrin (platelet gpIIb/IIIa) that lacks ligand recognition shows immunologic evidence of a perturbed interaction with divalent cations. This was found to be caused by a G----T mutation that resulted in an Asp119----Tyr119 substitution in the beta 3 subunit. This residue is proximal to bound ligand and is in a conserved region among integrins that are enriched in oxygenated residues. The spacing of these residues aligns with the calcium-binding residues in EF hand proteins, suggesting interaction with receptor-bound divalent cation as a mechanism of ligand binding common to all integrins.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Loftus, J C -- O'Toole, T E -- Plow, E F -- Glass, A -- Frelinger, A L 3rd -- Ginsberg, M H -- AR 27214/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- HL 28235/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- HL 42977/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Aug 24;249(4971):915-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Committee on Vascular Biology, Research Institute of Scripps Clinic, La Jolla, CA 92037.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2392682" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Inhibition of FKBP rotamase activity by immunosuppressant FK506: twisted amide surrogate (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-05-18
    Beschreibung: The immunosuppressive agents cyclosporin A and FK506 inhibit the transcription of early T cell activation genes. The binding proteins for cyclosporin A and FK506, cyclophilin and FKBP, respectively, are peptidyl-prolyl-cis-trans isomerases, or rotamases. One proposed mechanism for rotamase catalysis by cyclophilin involves a tetrahedral adduct of an amide carbonyl and an enzyme-bound nucleophile. The potent FKBP rotamase inhibitor FK506 has a highly electrophilic carbonyl that is adjacent to an acyl-pipicolinyl (homoprolyl) amide bond. Such a functional group would be expected to form a stabilized, enzyme-bound tetrahedral adduct. Spectroscopic and chemical evidence reveals that the drug interacts noncovalently with its receptor, suggesting that the alpha-keto amid of FK506 serves as a surrogate for the twisted amide of a bound peptide substrate.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rosen, M K -- Standaert, R F -- Galat, A -- Nakatsuka, M -- Schreiber, S L -- GM-38627/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 May 18;248(4957):863-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1693013" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Anatomy of a conformational change: hinged "lid" motion of the triosephosphate isomerase loop (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-09-21
    Beschreibung: Triosephosphate isomerase (TIM) is used as a model system for the study of how a localized conformational change in a protein structure is produced and related to enzyme reactivity. An 11-residue loop region moves more than 7 angstroms and closes over the active site when substrate binds. The loop acts like a "lid" in that it moves rigidly and is attached by two hinges to the remainder of the protein. The nature of the motion appears to be built into the loop by conserved residues; the hinge regions, in contrast, are not conserved. Results of molecular dynamics calculations confirm the structural analysis and suggest a possible ligand-induced mechanism for loop closure.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Joseph, D -- Petsko, G A -- Karplus, M -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Sep 21;249(4975):1425-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Chemistry, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge 02139.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2402636" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    A bacterial enhancer functions to tether a transcriptional activator near a promoter (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-04-27
    Beschreibung: The nitrogen regulatory protein NtrC of enteric bacteria activates transcription of the glnA gene by catalyzing isomerization of closed complexes between RNA polymerase and the glnA promoter to open complexes. NtrC binds to sites upstream of glnA that have properties of eukaryotic transcriptional enhancers. NtrC-binding sites were found to facilitate open complex formation when these sites and the glnA promoter were located on different rings of a singly linked catenane, but not when the two rings were decatenated. The results provide evidence that NtrC contacts RNA polymerase-promoter complexes in a process mediated by formation of a DNA loop. NtrC-binding sites serve to tether NtrC near the glnA promoter, thereby increasing the frequency of collisions between NtrC and polymerase-promoter complexes.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wedel, A -- Weiss, D S -- Popham, D -- Droge, P -- Kustu, S -- GM 38361/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Apr 27;248(4954):486-90.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Plant Pathology, University of California, Berkeley 94720.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1970441" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Characterization of an extremely large, ligand-induced conformational change in plasminogen (1990)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 1990-04-06
    Beschreibung: Native human plasminogen has a radius of gyration of 39 angstroms. Upon occupation of a weak lysine binding site, the radius of gyration increases to 56 angstroms, an extremely large ligand-induced conformational change. There are no intermediate conformational states between the closed and open form. The conformational chang is not accompanied by a change in secondary structure, hence the closed conformation is formed by interaction between domains that is abolished upon conversion to the open form. This reversible change in conformation, in which the shape of the protein changes from that best described by a prolate ellipsoid to a flexible structure best described by a Debye random coil, is physiologically relevant because a weak lysine binding site regulates the activation of plasminogen.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mangel, W F -- Lin, B H -- Ramakrishnan, V -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1990 Apr 6;248(4951):69-73.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Biology Department, Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NY 11973.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2108500" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
