Structures of APC/C(Cdh1) with substrates identify Cdh1 and Apc10 as the D-box co-receptor.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2011-02-10)
The ubiquitylation of cell-cycle regulatory proteins by the large multimeric anaphase-promoting complex (APC/C) controls sister chromatid segregation and the exit from mitosis. Selection of APC/C targets is achieved through ...
Three-dimensional structure of recombinant type 1 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor.
(PORTLAND PRESS LTD, 2010-05-27)
IP3Rs (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors) are the intracellular channels that mediate release of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum in response to the many stimuli that evoke Ins(1,4,5)P3 formation. We characterized ...
Molecular mechanism of APC/C activation by mitotic phosphorylation.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2016-05-12)
In eukaryotes, the anaphase-promoting complex (APC/C, also known as the cyclosome) regulates the ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis of specific cell-cycle proteins to coordinate chromosome segregation in mitosis and entry ...
Structure of human RNA polymerase III.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2020-12-17)
In eukaryotes, RNA Polymerase (Pol) III is specialized for the transcription of tRNAs and other short, untranslated RNAs. Pol III is a determinant of cellular growth and lifespan across eukaryotes. Upregulation of Pol III ...
Binding to an Unusual Inactive Kinase Conformation by Highly Selective Inhibitors of Inositol-Requiring Enzyme 1α Kinase-Endoribonuclease.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2019-02-19)
A series of imidazo[1,2- b]pyridazin-8-amine kinase inhibitors were discovered to allosterically inhibit the endoribonuclease function of the dual kinase-endoribonuclease inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α), a key component ...
Human Condensin I and II Drive Extensive ATP-Dependent Compaction of Nucleosome-Bound DNA.
(CELL PRESS, 2020-07-02)
Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) complexes are essential for genome organization from bacteria to humans, but their mechanisms of action remain poorly understood. Here, we characterize human SMC complexes condensin ...
Cryo-EM structures of the XPF-ERCC1 endonuclease reveal how DNA-junction engagement disrupts an auto-inhibited conformation.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2020-02-28)
The structure-specific endonuclease XPF-ERCC1 participates in multiple DNA damage repair pathways including nucleotide excision repair (NER) and inter-strand crosslink repair (ICLR). How XPF-ERCC1 is catalytically activated ...
Structure-Enabled Discovery of a Stapled Peptide Inhibitor to Target the Oncogenic Transcriptional Repressor TLE1.
(WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, 2017-07-18)
TLE1 is an oncogenic transcriptional co-repressor that exerts its repressive effects through binding of transcription factors. Inhibition of this protein-protein interaction represents a putative cancer target, but no ...
Mechanism for remodelling of the cell cycle checkpoint protein MAD2 by the ATPase TRIP13.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-07-12)
The maintenance of genome stability during mitosis is coordinated by the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) through its effector the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC), an inhibitor of the anaphase-promoting complex (APC/C, ...
Demonstrating In-Cell Target Engagement Using a Pirin Protein Degradation Probe (CCT367766).
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2018-02-08)
Demonstrating intracellular protein target engagement is an essential step in the development and progression of new chemical probes and potential small molecule therapeutics. However, this can be particularly challenging ...
