Abstract:
Temporal and/or spatial alteration of collagen family gene expression results in bone defects. However, how collagen expression controls bone size remains largely unknown. The basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor HAND1 is expressed in developing long bones and is involved in their morphogenesis. To understand the functional role of HAND1 and collagen in the postnatal development of long bones, we overexpressed Hand1 in the osteochondroprogenitors of model mice and found that the bone volumes of cortical bones decreased in Hand1Tg/+;Twist2-Cre mice.

Abstract:
A large variety of cells adhere to and spread on specific regions within the triple helix of collagens, mainly via alpha 1 beta 1 and alpha 2 beta 1 integrins. Disruption of collagen triple helical integrity generally affects the efficiency of cell adhesion on different collagens including collagen V. This report addresses the question of the importance of the linear sequence of the constitutive alpha-chains versus the triple helical conformation in the recognition of collagen V binding sites. To investigate this question, in vitro renaturation of the isolated alpha 1 (V) and alpha 2 (V) chain

Abstract:
Helix-coil configurations in biopolymers can be represented as a symbolic sequence of helix and coil units. A given configuration can be generated by progressing down the branches of a binary tree. The probability weighting of the branches in the tree will depend on the specific model under consideration. The multifractal nature of this binary tree can be described by an adaptation of a statistical mechanical formalism that uses sequence generating functions. It is seen that the sequence generating function approach is equivalent to transfer matrix methods for processes involving one-step memo

Abstract:
Collagen type VI, which forms characteristic microfibrillar structures, is assembled from three individual alpha(VI) chains that form a short triple helix and two adjacent globular domains. Expression of all three alpha (VI) collagen chains in the human bone marrow (BM) microenvironment could be detected by chain-specific antibodies in tissue sections and in the adherent stromal layer of long-term BM cultures. In functional studies, collagen type VI was shown to be a strong adhesive substrate for various hematopoietic cell lines and light-density BM mononuclear cells. The adhesive site within

Abstract:
Abstract Human interleukin-11 (hIL-11) is a pleiotropic cytokine administered to patients for recovering low platelet counts. From a structural point of view hIL-11 belongs to the long-helix cytokine superfamily, which is characterized by a conserved core motif consisting of four alpha-helices. We have investigated the region of hIL-11 that does not belong to the alpha-helical bundle motif, which we have termed “non-core region”. The interleukin was N- or O-glycosylated at specific positions within the non-core region, and the functional consequences of these modifications were examined in cel

Abstract:
The availability ofin vitroassembly systems to produce recombinant archaeal RNA polymerases (RNAPs) offers one of the most powerful experimental tools for investigating the still relatively poorly understood molecular mechanisms underlying RNAP function. Over the last few years, we pioneered new robot-based high-throughput mutagenesis approaches to study structure/function relationships within various domains surrounding the catalytic center. The Bridge Helix domain, which appears in numerous X-ray structures as a 35-amino-acid-long alpha helix, coordinates the concerted movement of several ot

ABSTRACT All orthoretroviruses encode a single structural protein, Gag, which is necessary and sufficient for the assembly and budding of enveloped virus-like particles from the cell. The Gag proteins of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) contain a short spacer peptide (SP or SP1, respectively) separating the capsid (CA) and nucleocapsid (NC) domains. SP or SP1 and the residues immediately upstream are known to be critical for proper assembly. Using mutagenesis and electron microscopy analysis of insect cells or chicken cells overexpressing RSV Gag, we def

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) activate heterotrimeric G proteins by promoting guanine nucleotide exchange. Here, we investigate the coupling of G proteins with GPCRs and describe the events that ultimately lead to the ejection of GDP from its binding pocket in the G&alpha; subunit, the rate-limiting step during G-protein activation. Using molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate the temporal progression of structural rearrangements of GDP-bound G<sub>s</sub>&nbsp;protein (G<sub>s</sub>&middot;GDP; hereafter G<sub>s</sub><sup>GDP</sup>) upon coupling to the &beta;<sub>2</sub>-adrene

Abstract CT is composed of two subunits, A and B, of 27 and 57.5 kDa respectively, held together by noncovalent interactions. The B subunit which contains the receptor binding site, is formed by five identical monomers, each of 11.5 kDa which assemble into a ring like oligomeric structure having a central hole. The CT receptor is the glycosfingolipid, GM1 ganglioside. The A subunit is composed of the enzymatically active A1 domain that is connected to the B subunit through the A2 domain, a long alpha helix inserted into the central hole of the B subunit (Fig. 1) (Rappuoli and Pizza 1991; Sixma

Abstract:
Abstract Proteins are individually sculpted molecules the three-dimensional structure of which is dictated by their amino acid sequence. They are heteropolymers with a variable composition of 20 different amino acids. The amino acid sequence is referred to as the primary structure. For most proteins, the information contained in the primary structure is sufficient to dictate the three-dimensional folding of the protein. The peptide linkages that join the amino acid residues are planar and have two characteristic dihedral angles associated with them. These bond rotations are referred to as the
