Structural information on the light-harvesting complex II of green plants that can be deciphered from polarized absorption characteristics Gulen, D; vanGrondelle, R; vanAmerongen, H (1997-09-11) The atomic model of light-harvesting complex II of green plants (LHCII) reveals a densely packed arrangement of 12 chlorophylls and two carotenoids. At the current resolution of 3.4 Angstrom chlorophylls can only be modeled as ''naked'' tetrapyrrole rings. Consequently, definitive assignments of the identities of the chlorophylls (chlorophyll a or chlorophyll b) and the directions of the transition dipole moments are obstructed. These uncertainties lead to a large number of possible configurations, and a de...
STRUCTURAL MODIFICATIONS IN AN ARCHAEAL SMALL HEAT SHOCK PROTEIN TO REVEAL MOLECULAR BASIS OF SUBSTRATE TARGETING AND BINDING Rafiq, Azra; Kocabıyık, Semra; Bat, Erhan; Department of Biochemistry (2022-5-12) The N-terminal domain (NTD) of small heat shock protein (sHSP) from archaea, Thermoplasma volcanium, is highly hydrophobic in the proximal and distal end. It is 32 amino acids long and has two highly conserved glutamic acid residues at positions 11 and 22. The 3-D model of the dimer generated by homology modelling predicted the NTD to be running away from each other and the dimer interface being formed mainly between β2 and β6 sheets of the Alpha Crystallin Domain (ACD). The decrease in hydrophobicity in th...
Structural characterization of recombinant bovine Go alpha by spectroscopy and homology modeling MEGA TİBER, PINAR; Orun, Oya; Nacar, Cevdet; Sezerman, Ugur Osman; Severcan, Feride; Severcan, Mete; Matagne, Andre; KAN, BEKİ (2011-01-01) Go, a member of heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins, is the most abundant form of G protein in the central and peripheral nervous systems. Go alpha has a significant role in neuronal development and function but its signal transduction mechanism remains to be clarified.
Structural and docking analysis of a spirulina platensis DPP-IV inhibitory peptide Bakar , Bahar; Kaplan Türköz , Burcu (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi Enformatik Enstitüsü; 2022-10) Diabetes is a very common chronic disease defined by high blood glucose levels [1]. Dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) enzyme causes the degredation of glucose-dependent insulin releasing polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP1) molecules and consequently the glucose level in the blood is not lowered. Inhibition of DPP-IV enzyme provides an antidiabetic effect by lowering the blood glucose levels [2]. Anti-diabetic drugs have some side effects and limitations, hence research on novel pharmacologic...
Structural and functional characterization of the CXXC-type zinc finger protein 5 (CXXC5) Ayaz Şen, Gamze; Muyan, Mesut; Department of Biology (2018) Estrogen hormones, particularly 17β-estradiol (E2), are involved in the regulation of physiological and pathophysiological functions of many organs and tissues including breast tissue. The expression of CXXC type zinc finger protein 5 (CXXC5) gene is regulated by E2 through estrogen receptor α. Due to a highly conserved zinc-finger CXXC domain (ZF-CXXC), CXXC5 is considered to be a member of ZF-CXXC family, which binds to non-methylated CpG dinucleotides of transcriptionally active DNA regions. This binding...
