Conservation of Protein Domains Over Different Proteins02:26

Conservation of Protein Domains Over Different Proteins

11.8K
Protein domains are small structurally independent units that are part of a single amino acid chain.  Although these domains are often structurally independent, they may rely on synergistic effects to perform their functions as part of a larger protein. Protein domains may be conserved within the same organism, as well as across different organisms.
A limited set of protein domains often duplicate and recombine during evolution. These domains can be organized in different combinations to...

Ligand Binding Sites02:40

Ligand Binding Sites

11.9K
Proteins are dynamic macromolecules that carry out a wide variety of essential processes; however, the activities of most proteins depend on their interactions with other molecules or ions, known as ligands.
Protein-ligand interactions are quite specific; even though numerous potential ligands surround a cellular protein at any given time, only a particular ligand can bind to that protein. Moreover, a ligand binds only to a dedicated area on the surface of the protein, known as the...

Conserved Binding Sites

4.1K
Many proteins’ biological role depends on their interactions with their ligands, small molecules that bind to specific locations on the protein known as ligand-binding sites. Ligand-binding sites are often conserved among homologous proteins as these sites are critical for protein function.
Binding sites are often located in large pockets, and if their location on a protein’s surface is unknown, it can be predicted using various approaches. The energetic method computationally...

Ligand Binding and Linkage00:49

Ligand Binding and Linkage

4.4K
Allosteric proteins have more than one ligand binding site; the binding of a ligand to any of these sites influences the binding of ligands to the other sites. When a protein is allosteric, its binding sites are called coupled or linked.  In the case of enzymes, the site that binds to the substrate is known as the active site and the other site is known as the regulatory site. When a ligand binds to the regulatory site, this leads to conformational changes in the protein that can influence...

Protein Kinases and Phosphatases02:54

Protein Kinases and Phosphatases

12.1K
Proteins undergo chemical modifications that trigger changes in the charge, structure, and conformation of the proteins. Phosphorylation, acetylation, glycosylation, nitrosylation, ubiquitination, lipidation, methylation, and proteolysis are various protein modifications that regulate protein activity. Such modifications are usually enzyme-driven.
Protein kinases
Many proteins in the cell are regulated by phosphorylation, the addition of a phosphate group. A family of enzymes called kinases...

Assembly of Signaling Complexes01:30

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,...

Background:

  • The 14-3-3 protein family plays a critical role in mediating signal transduction pathways.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized phosphoserine-oriented peptide libraries to probe mammalian and yeast 14-3-3 proteins.
  • Determined the crystal structure of a 14-3-3zeta complex with a phosphoserine motif.
  • Analyzed peptide-protein interactions within the crystal structure.

Main Results:

  • Identified two primary 14-3-3 binding motifs: RSXpSXP and RXY/FXpSXP.
  • Observed a specific peptide conformation in the 14-3-3zeta complex, including a cis-conformation proline residue.

Conclusions:

  • The identified motifs are prevalent in known 14-3-3 binding proteins.
  • The structural data provides a molecular basis for the observed peptide library results.
  • Bidentate association with tandem motifs represents a significant signaling mechanism for proteins like Raf, BAD, and Cbl.
