Abstract

A network of protein vibrations has recently been identified in the enzyme cyclophilin A (CypA) that is associated with its peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerization activity of small peptide substrates. It has been suggested that this network may have a role in promoting the catalytic step during the isomerization reaction. This work presents the results from the characterization of this network during the isomerization of the Gly89-Pro90 peptide bond in the N-terminal domain of the capsid protein (CA(N)) from human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), which is a naturally occurring, biologically relevant protein substrate for CypA. A variety of computational and theoretical studies are utilized to investigate the protein dynamics of the CypA-CA(N) complex, at multiple time scales, during the isomerization step. The results provide insights into the detailed mechanism of isomerization and confirm the presence of previously reported network of protein vibrations coupled to the reaction. Conserved CypA residues at the complex interface and at positions distal to the interface form parts of this network. There is HIV-1 related medical interest in CypA; incorporation of CypA, complexed with the capsid protein, into the virion is r...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.
