The versatile role of YidC in membrane protein biosynthesis and quality control Caliseki, Mehmet; Schaffitzel, Christiane; Kabasakal, Burak Veli (2025-06-01) Membrane proteins are essential for bacterial survival, facilitating vital processes such as energy production, nutrient transport, and cell wall synthesis. YidC is a key player in membrane protein biogenesis, acting as bo...
3.16 - Tissue, serum, and saliva sampling for proteomic analysis Kabasakal, Burak Veli; Özcan Kabasakal, Süreyya (Academic Press, 2025-06-01)
The crystal structure of Shethna protein II (FeSII) from <i>Azotobacter vinelandii</i> suggests a domain swap Kabasakal, Burak Veli; McFarlane, Ciaran R.; Cotton, Charles A. R.; Schmidt, Anna; Kung, Andrea; Lieber, Lucas; Murray, James W. (2024-08-01) The Azotobacter vinelandii FeSII protein forms an oxygen-resistant complex with the nitrogenase MoFe and Fe proteins. FeSII is an adrenodoxin-type ferredoxin that forms a dimer in solution. Previously, the crystal structur...
Dynamic lid domain of Chloroflexus aurantiacus Malonyl-CoA reductase controls the reaction Kabasakal, Burak Veli; Cotton, Charles A. R.; Murray, James W. (2024-04-01) Malonyl-Coenzyme A Reductase (MCR) in Chloroflexus aurantiacus, a characteristic enzyme of the 3hydroxypropionate (3-HP) cycle, catalyses the reduction of malonyl-CoA to 3-HP. MCR is a bifunctional enzyme; in the first ste...
Sample Preparation for Electron Cryo-Microscopy of Macromolecular Machines Deniaud, Aurelien; Kabasakal, Burak Veli; Bufton, Joshua C.; Schaffitzel, Christiane (2024-01-01) High-resolution structure determination by electron cryo-microscopy underwent a step change in recent years. This now allows study of challenging samples which previously were inaccessible for structure determination, incl...
Structural Elucidation of FtsH-Hfl K-Hfl C Complex using XL-MS Akkulak, Hatice; Kabasakal, Burak Veli; Özcan Kabasakal, Süreyya (2023-10-13)
Rapid and efficient ambient temperature X-ray crystal structure determination at Turkish Light Source Gul, Mehmet; et. al. (2023-05-01) High-resolution biomacromolecular structure determination is essential to better understand protein function and dynamics. Serial crystallography is an emerging structural biology technique which has fundamental limitation...
Cryogenic X-ray crystallographic studies of biomacromolecules at Turkish Light Source "Turkish DeLight" Atalay, Necati; et. al. (2023-01-01) X-ray crystallography is a robust and powerful structural biology technique that provides high-resolution atomic structures of biomacromolecules. Scientists use this technique to unravel mechanistic and structural details ...
Insights into bacterial membrane protein quality control: YccA and its interaction with FtsH Allahyari, Nasim; Özcan Kabasakal, Süreyya; Kabasakal, Burak Veli (2022-08-24)
Crystal structure of the [2Fe-2S] protein I (Shethna protein I) from <i>Azotobacter vinelandii</i> Kabasakal, Burak Veli; Cotton, Charles A. R.; Murray, James W. (2021-11-01) Azotobacter vinelandii is a model diazotroph and is the source of most nitrogenase material for structural and biochemical work. Azotobacter can grow in above-atmospheric levels of oxygen, despite the sensitivity of nitrog...
