Protein Dynamics in Living Cells

1.9K
Different fluorescence-based techniques are used to study the protein dynamics in living cells. These techniques include FRAP, FRET, and PET.
Fluorescent recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a fluorescent-protein-based detection technique used to quantify protein movement rates within the cell. This method exposes a small portion of the cell to an intense laser beam. The laser beam causes permanent photobleaching of the fluorophore-tagged proteins in the exposed region. As the bleached...

Protein Complexes with Interchangeable Parts

2.1K
Groups of proteins may form a complex where each protein in this complex has a different role in the overall execution of the complex’s function. Often some of the proteins in the complex can be replaced by a closely related variant to give a complex that contains many of the same components yet is functionally distinct.
The SCF ubiquitin ligase is a protein complex of five individual proteins. This complex attaches ubiquitin to other target proteins to mark them for degradation. In order...

Covalently Linked Protein Regulators

Proteins can undergo many types of post-translational modifications, often in response to changes in their environment. These modifications play an important role in the function and stability of these proteins. Covalently linked molecules include functional groups, such as methyl, acetyl, and phosphate groups, and also small proteins, such as ubiquitin. There are around 200 different types of covalent regulators that have been identified.
These groups modify specific amino acids in a protein....

    Area of Science:

    • Biophysics
    • Structural Biology
    • Computational Biology

    Background:

    • Collective motions in proteins, including hinge-bending and domain movements, are recognized as functionally important.
    • Experimental and theoretical studies have investigated the occurrence and significance of these protein dynamics.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the experimental and theoretical studies of collective protein motions.
    • To discuss the application of theoretical tools in understanding protein dynamics.
    • To highlight the development of the normal-mode refinement method in protein X-ray crystallography.

    Main Methods:

    • Normal-mode analysis (NMA) assumes harmonic dynamics.
    • Principal component analysis (PCA) is applicable to both harmonic and anharmonic protein dynamics.
    • Both NMA and PCA identify a low-dimensional subspace capturing essential conformational events.

    Main Results:

    • Principal component analysis reveals that critical protein conformational changes are confined to a subspace spanned by a few principal modes.
    • This functionally relevant subspace can also be described by a small number of normal modes.
    • The findings support the concept of a dominant subspace governing protein conformational dynamics.

    Conclusions:

    • Collective protein motions play a vital role in protein function.
    • Principal component analysis is a powerful tool for characterizing anharmonic protein dynamics.
    • The normal-mode refinement method, based on the identified important subspace, is a valuable technique in protein X-ray crystallography.
