Résumé :
To determine whether a charged histidine side chain affects alpha-helix stability only when histidine is close to one end of the helix or also when it is in the central region, we substitute a single histidine residue at many positions in two reference peptides and measure helix stability and histidine pKa. The position of a charged histidine residue has a major effect on helix stability in 0.01 M NaCl: the helix content of a 17-residue peptide is 24% when histidine is at position 3 compared to 76% when it is at position 17. This dependence of helix content on histidine position decreases shar

Previous studies using combined techniques of site-directed mutagenesis and electrophysiology of voltage-gated Na+ channels have demonstrated that there are significant overlaps in the regions that are important for the two fundamental properties of the channels, namely gating and permeation.

Here, we determined the role of an adjacent pore-lining negatively charged residue (E403) in channel gating. Charge neutralizatio

Rabbit neutral endopeptidase 24.11 (NEP) is a type II membrane protein with a positively charged 27 amino acid residue NH2-terminal cytoplasmic domain, a 20 amino acid residue hydrophobic signal peptide/membrane anchor domain, and a large catalytic COOH-terminal domain exposed on the exoplasmic side of the membrane. To study the role of the cytosolic domain in anchoring NEP in the plasma membrane, we constructed two mutants in which this cytosolic domain was deleted.

The complexation is mainly determined by the electrostatic interactions between the positively charged nitrogen atom of the amino acid and the negatively charged oxygen atom of phosphonic acid residue of the calixarene, the Host-Guest p-p, СН-p and solvophobic interactions.

Résumé :
The Amyloid beta (Aβ) oligomers are characterized as critical cytotoxic materials in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathogenesis. Structural details of transmembrane oligomers are inevitably necessary to design/search potential inhibitor due to treat AD. However, the experimental detections for structural modify of low-order Aβ oligomers are precluded due to the extremely dynamic fluctuation of the oligomers. In this project, the transmembrane Italian-mutant (E22K) 3Aβ11-40 (tmE22K 3Aβ11-40) was extensively investigated upon the temperature replica exchange molecular dynamics (REMD) simulations. The

Résumé :
An identical neuropeptide was isolated from the corpora cardiaca of two beetle species, Melolontha melolontha and Geotrupes stercorosus. Its primary structure was determined by pulsed-liquid-phase sequencing employing Edman chemistry after enzymically deblocking the N-terminal pyroglutamate residue. The C-terminus was also blocked, as indicated by the lack of digestion when the peptide was incubated with carboxypeptidase A. The sequence of this peptide, which is designated Mem-CC, is pGlu-Leu-Asn-Tyr-Ser-Pro-Asp-Trp-NH2. It is a new member of the adipokinetic hormone/red-pigment-concentrating

Zika virus (ZIKV) is a positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus in the Flaviviridae, which is classified into two different lineages Asian and African. The outbreak of ZIKV Asian lineage isolates in 2015–2016 is associated with the increase in cases with prenatal microcephaly and Guillain–Barré syndrome, and has sparked attention throughout the world. Genome sequence alignment and the analysis of Asian and African lineage isolates indicate that amino acid changes, particular in positively charged amino acid substitutions in the pr region of prM protein might involve a phenotypic change that li

Résumé :
Cytochrome c is a small electron transport protein found in the intermembrane space of mitochondria. As it interacts with a number of different physiological partners in a specific fashion, its structure varies little over eukaryotic evolutionary history. Two highly conserved residues found within its sequence are those at positions 13 and 90 (numbering is based on the standard horse cytochrome c); with single exceptions, residue 13 is either Lys or Arg, and residue 90 is either Glu or Asp. There have been conflicting views on the roles to be ascribed to these residues, particularly residue 13

Human cystatin C variants in which the evolutionarily conserved Gly-11 residue has been replaced by residues with positively charged (Arg), negatively charged (Glu), bulky hydrophobic (Trp), or small (Ser or Ala) side-chains have been produced by site-directed mutagenesis and expression in Escherichia coli. The five variants were isolated and structurally verified.

Résumé :
Multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) is a member of the major facilitator superfamily that contributes to MDR of Candida albicans. This antiporter belongs to the drug/H+ antiporter 1 family, pairing the downhill gradient of protons to drug extrusion. Hence, drug efflux from cytosol to extracellular space and the parallel import of H+ towards cytosol are inextricably linked processes. For monitoring the drug/H+ antiporter activity of Mdr1p, we developed a new system, exploiting a GFP variant pHluorin, which changes its fluorescence properties with pH. This enabled us to measure the cytosolic pH correl

Résumé :
The Staphylococcus epidermidis glucose/H+ symporter (GlcPSe) is a membrane transporter highly specific for glucose and a homolog of the human glucose transporters (GLUT, SLC2 family). Most GLUTs and their bacterial counterparts differ in the transport mechanism, adopting uniport and sugar/H+ symport, respectively. Unlike other bacterial GLUT homologs (for example, XylE), GlcPSe has a loose H+/sugar coupling. Asp22 is part of the proton-binding site of GlcPSe and crucial for the glucose/H+ co-transport mechanism. To determine how pH variations affect the proton site and the transporter, we perf

The effects of pineapple residue ash fertilization on CO2 and N2O emissions from a peat soil grown with pineapple were determined using closed chamber method with the following treatments: (i) 25, 50, 70, and 100% of the suggested rate of pineapple residue ash + NPK fertilizer, (ii) NPK fertil

We have identified two basic residues that are important for the recognition of secretin and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) by their respective receptors. These two peptides containing an Asp residue at position 3 interacted with an arginine residue in transmembrane helix 2 (TM2) of the receptor, and the lysine residue in extracellular loop 1 (ECL1) stabilized the active receptor conformation induced by the ligand. The glucagon receptor possesses a Lys instead of an Arg in TM2, and an Ile instead of Lys in ECL1; it markedly prefers a Gln side chain in position 3 of the ligand. Our results

Dengue virus (DENV) has four serotypes that complicate vaccine development. Envelope protein domain III (EDIII) of DENV is a promising target for therapeutic antibody development.

To improve the affinity of 1A1D-2, in this study, we analyzed the previously solved structure of 1A1D-2-DENV2 EDIII complex.
