Cooperative Allosteric Transitions

9.1K
Cooperative allosteric transitions can occur in multimeric proteins, where each subunit of the protein has its own ligand-binding site. When a ligand binds to any of these subunits, it triggers a conformational change that affects the binding sites in the other subunits; this can change the affinity of the other sites for their respective ligands. The ability of the protein to change the shape of its binding site is attributed to the presence of a mix of flexible and stable segments in the...

Allosteric Proteins-ATCase

Binding sites linkages can regulate a protein's function.  For example, enzyme activity is often regulated through a feedback mechanism where the end product of the biochemical process serves as an inhibitor.
Aspartate transcarbamoylase (ATCase) is a cytosolic enzyme that catalyzes the condensation of L-aspartate and carbamoyl phosphate to  N-carbamoyl-L-aspartate. This reaction is the first step in pyrimidine biosynthesis. UTP and CTP, the end products of the pyrimidine synthesis...

ATP Synthase: Mechanism

18.0K
In animals, the mitochondrial F1F0 ATP synthase is the key protein that synthesizes ATP molecules through a complex catalytic mechanism. While the nuclear genome encodes the majority of ATP synthase subunits, the mitochondrial genome encodes some of the enzyme's most critical components. The formation of this multi-subunit enzyme is a complex multi-step process regulated at the level of transcription, translation, and assembly. Defects in one or more of these steps can result in decreased...

Transcription Attenuation in Prokaryotes02:42

Transcription Attenuation in Prokaryotes

18.8K
Transcriptional attenuation occurs when RNA transcription is prematurely terminated due to the formation of a terminator mRNA hairpin structure.  Bacteria use these hairpins to regulate the transcription process and control the synthesis of several amino acids including histidine, lysine, threonine, and phenylalanine. Transcription attenuation takes place in the non-coding regions of mRNA.
There are several different mechanisms used to attenuate transcription. In ribosome mediated...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • 2D Materials

Background:

  • Phase transitions in 2D materials like tantalum disulfide (TaS2) are crucial for novel electronic devices.
  • The 1T phase of TaS2 (1T-TaS2) undergoes a phase transition via commensurate charge density waves (CCDW) at 180 K.

Purpose of the Study:

  • Investigate the influence of substrate properties on 1T-TaS2 phase transitions.
  • Determine the primary extrinsic factors affecting CCDW transition temperature and hysteresis.

Main Methods:

  • Studied ultrathin 1T-TaS2 on various substrates.
  • Analyzed the effect of substrate surface roughness and chemical interactions (doping, charge transfer).
  • Simulated surface roughness using textured SiO2/Si substrates to induce periodic strain.

Main Results:

  • Substrate doping and charge transfer showed minimal impact on CDW phase transitions.
  • Substrate surface roughness was identified as a key factor influencing CCDW transition temperature and hysteresis.
  • Increased surface roughness led to reduced transition hysteresis in 1T-TaS2.

Conclusions:

  • Substrate surface roughness is a critical extrinsic parameter for controlling 1T-TaS2 phase transitions.
  • Surface texturing of substrates can engineer CCDW transition properties by inducing strain.
  • This provides a pathway for tunable electronic properties in 2D materials.
