Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have increasingly contributed to the understanding of biomolecular processes, allowing for predictions of thermodynamic and structural properties. Unfortunately, the holy grail of protein structure prediction was soon fo ...
Modularity is at the core of bioinformatics. Here we focused on two different building blocks: protein domains and exons. While protein domains enable us to study the protein‚s functions, exons allow us to understand the evolution of the former. However, a ...
After decades of slow progress, the pace of research on membrane protein structures is beginning to quicken thanks to various improvements in technology, including protein engineering and microfocus X-ray diffraction. Here we review these developments and, ...
The baseplate of phage T4 is an important model system in viral supramolecular assembly. The baseplate consists of six wedges surrounding the central hub. We report the first successful attempt at complete wedge assembly using an in vitro approach based on ...
The development of innovative bioanalytical technologies that enable the discovery of new therapeutics or the creation of systems for rapid, accurate and parallel analyses has gained an extraordinary interest in the biomedical sector in the last 10-15 year ...
We present a new method to incorporate electrostatic interactions in coarse-grained representations of proteins. The model is based on a topologically reconstructed multipolar expansion of the all-atom centers of charge, specifically of the backbone dipole ...
Experiments and molecular simulations have shown that the hydrophobic mismatch between proteins and membranes contributes significantly to lipid-mediated protein-protein interactions. In this article, we discuss the effect of cholesterol on lipid-mediated ...
The coiled coil is a superhelical protein structural motif that consists of two or more alpha-helical peptides that are wrapped around each other in superhelical fashion. Coiled coils are amongst the most ubiquitous folding motifs found in proteins and hav ...
Multiple quantum relaxation in proteins reveals unexpected relationships between correlated or anti-correlated conformational backbone dynamics in alpha-helices or beta-sheets. The contributions of conformational exchange to the relaxation rates of C'N coh ...
alpha-Synuclein (alpha-syn) phosphorylation at serine 129 is characteristic of Parkinson disease (PD) and related alpha-synulceinopathies. However, whether phosphorylation promotes or inhibits alpha-syn aggregation and neurotoxicity in vivo remains unknown ...
