Analysis and Error Correction in Structures of Macromolecular Interiors and Interfaces
(2009)As of late 2009, the Protein Data Bank (PDB) has grown to contain over 70,000 models. This recent increase in the amount of structural data allows for more extensive explication of the governing principles of macromolecular ... -
Kinetic Characterization of the Coupled Folding and Binding Mechanism of Bacterial RNase P Protein: an Intrinsically Unstructured Protein
(2009)Understanding the interconversion between the thermodynamically distinguishable states present in a protein folding pathway provides not only the kinetics and energetics of protein folding but also insights into the functional ... -
Large-Scale Analysis of Protein Folding and Stability Changes Associated with Breast Cancer
(2018)Proteomic methods for disease state characterization and biomarker discovery have traditionally utilized quantitative mass spectrometry methods to identify proteins with altered expression levels in disease states. Unfortunately, ... -
Spontaneous Unfolding-Refolding of Fibronectin Type III Domains Assayed by Thiol Exchange: THERMODYNAMIC STABILITY CORRELATES WITH RATES OF UNFOLDING RATHER THAN FOLDING.
(J Biol Chem, 2017-01-20)Globular proteins are not permanently folded but spontaneously unfold and refold on time scales that can span orders of magnitude for different proteins. A longstanding debate in the protein-folding field is whether unfolding ... -
The (Un)Folding of Multidomain Proteins Through the Lens of Single-molecule Force-spectroscopy and Computer Simulation
(2016)Proteins are specialized molecules that catalyze most of the reactions that can sustain life, and they become functional by folding into a specific 3D structure. Despite their importance, the question, "how do proteins fold?" ...
