Abstract

A crystal structure of adenylosuccinate synthetase from Escherichia coli, complexed with 5'-phosphate, GDP, HPO4(2-), Mg2+, and hadacidin at 100 K, has been refined to an Rfactor of 0.195 against data to 2.6 A resolution. Bond lengths and angles deviate from expected values by 0.012 A and 1.86 degrees, respectively. Lys 16 and backbone amides 15-17 and 42 interact with the phosphates of GDP, while Ser 414, Asp 333, and backbone amides 331 and 416 interact with the base. Mg2+ is octahedrally coordinated. Oxygen atoms from GDP, phosphate, and hadacidin define the equatorial plane of coordination of the Mg2+, while backbone carbonyl 40 and the side chain of Asp 13 are the apical ligands. HPO4(2-) hydrogen bonds with Lys 16, His 41, backbone amides 13, 40, and 224, and the base moiety of the hydantocidin inhibitor. The carboxylate of hadacidin interacts with Arg 303 and Thr 301; its N-formyl group coordinates to Mg2+, and its hydroxyl group hydrogen bonds with Asp 13. The 5'-phosphate of the hydantocidin inhibitor interacts with Asn 38, Thr 129, and Thr 239 but is approximately 3.5 A from Arg 143 (related by molecular 2-fold symmetry). The base moiety of hydantocidin 5'-phosphate hydrogen bonds to Gln 224 and participates in a hydr...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.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
