Protein-protein Interfaces

12.6K
Many proteins form complexes to carry out their functions, making protein-protein interactions (PPIs) essential for an organism's survival. Most PPIs are stabilized by numerous weak noncovalent chemical forces. The physical shape of the interfaces determines the way two proteins interact. Many globular proteins have closely-matching shapes on their surfaces, which form a large number of weak bonds. Additionally, many PPIs occur between two helices or between a surface cleft and a...

Cytoskeletal Accessory Proteins

3.1K
The cytoskeleton is an essential cell component that plays several structural and functional roles. However, the filaments that make up the cytoskeleton cannot function independently and depend on the accessory or ancillary proteins to effectively carry out their function. Accessory proteins associate with cytoskeletal filaments and their monomers, aiding filament formation and function. They also help in the cross-communication among cytoskeletal filaments. Cytoskeletal accessory proteins are...

Protein Networks

3.7K
An organism can have thousands of different proteins, and these proteins must cooperate to ensure the health of an organism. Proteins bind to other proteins and form complexes to carry out their functions. Many proteins interact with multiple other proteins creating a complex network of protein interactions.
These interactions can be represented through maps depicting protein-protein interaction networks, represented as nodes and edges. Nodes are circles that are representative of a protein,...

Assembly of Signaling Complexes

4.7K
Multiprotein signaling complexes are formed in a dynamic process involving protein-protein interactions at the cytoplasmic domain of transmembrane receptors or enzymatic and non-enzymatic proteins associated with the receptor. These complexes ensure the activation and propagation of intracellular signals that regulate cell functions.
Interaction domains in cell signaling
Interaction domains recognize exposed features of their binding partners containing post-translationally modified sequences,...

Mechanisms of Membrane Domain Formation

3.2K
Different physical properties of lipids and proteins allow them to localize and form distinct islands or domains in the membrane. Some membrane domains are formed due to protein-protein interactions, whereas others are formed due to the presence of specific lipids such as sphingolipids and sterols—for example, large proteins, such as bacteriorhodopsin, aggregate and create distinct domains.
Another mechanism for membrane domain formation involves membrane proteins interacting with...

Area of Science:

  • Biomaterials Science
  • Surface Chemistry
  • Biophysics

Background:

  • Traditional protein adsorption models emphasize direct protein-surface interactions.
  • Emerging evidence highlights the significant role of protein-protein interactions (PPIs).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the role and dynamics of PPIs in protein adsorption.
  • To characterize protein association states on modified surfaces.

Main Methods:

  • Employed high-throughput intermolecular resonance energy transfer (RET) tracking.
  • Studied bovine serum albumin (BSA) adsorption on polyethylene glycol (PEG) modified surfaces.

Main Results:

  • Directly observed dynamic, heterogeneous, and reversible PPIs of BSA.
  • Identified three distinct RET states, indicating a heterogeneous surface with coexisting monomers and clusters.
  • Demonstrated that monomer-cluster associations were longer-lived than monomer-monomer associations.
  • Found that association behavior was concentration-independent, suggesting local phenomena.

Conclusions:

  • PPIs are a critical factor in protein adsorption dynamics.
  • Surface heterogeneity influences protein association states and residence times.
  • Protein association on PEGylated surfaces is a localized process, not solely dictated by global concentration.
