Halogenated organic compounds (so-called organohalides) represent one of the major class of groundwater pollutants. The exploration of how organohalides are used as energy source is important in terms of ecosystem remediation but is also essential for the ...

Characterization of Coenzyme Q Biosynthesis Proteins through Integrative Modeling at the Protein-Membrane Interface

Deniz Aydin

Integral and peripheral membrane proteins account for one-third of the human proteome, and they are estimated to represent the target for over 50% of modern medicinal drugs. Despite their central role in medicine, the complex, heterogeneous and dynamic nat ...

Regulation of organohalide respiration

Julien Maillard, Mathilde Stéphanie Willemin

Organohalide respiration (OHR) is an anaerobic metabolism by which bacteria conserve energy with the use of halogenated compounds as terminal electron acceptors. Genes involved in OHR are organized in reductive dehalogenase (rdh) gene clusters and can be f ...

Abstract Background The NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (Nuo) is an assembly of proteins also known as complex I. It is the entry point for highly energetic electrons in the classical aerobic respiration process as it couples the transfer of two electrons f ...

Genie in a bottle: controlled release helps tame natural polypharmacology?

Yimon Aye, Xuyu Liu

Ability to faithfully report drug-target interactions constitutes a major critical parameter in preclinical/clinical settings. Yet the assessment of target engagement remains challenging, particularly for promiscuous and/or polypharmacologic ligands. Drawi ...

Virus lasers for biological detection

Gabriel Aeppli

The selective amplification of DNA in the polymerase chain reaction is used to exponentially increase the signal in molecular diagnostics for nucleic acids, but there are no analogous techniques for signal enhancement in clinical tests for proteins or cell ...

The eukaryotic cytosolic chaperonin, t-complex polypeptide 1 (TCP-1) ring complex or TRiC, is responsible for folding a tenth of the proteins in the cell. TRiC is a double-ringed barrel with each ring composed of eight different CCT (chaperonin containing ...

Structural and functional analysis of host attachment proteins from contractile injection systems

Michel Plattner

Bacteriophages of the myoviridae family, R-type pyocin, Photorhabus virulence cassette (PVC), Serratia antifeeding prophage (Afp) and type 6 secretion system (T6SS) form a class of contractile injection systems that share common structural and functional c ...

Nanoparticle Liposome Interactions

Zekiye Pelin Güven

Protein-mimetic materials are of great interest for biotechnology to grant protein-like properties to artificial systems. Additionally, these materials can be used to shed light on the fundamental properties of proteins in many environments. Nanoparticles, ...

Development of new strategies to produce and characterize PceC, a membrane-bound flavoprotein involved in organohalide respiration

Christof Holliger, Lorenzo Cimmino

Halogenated organic compounds (so-called organohalides) represent one of the major widespread groundwater pollutants. Organohalide respiration (OHR) is a bacterial anaerobic process in which chlorinated compound, e.g. tetrachloroethene (PCE), is used as te ...
