Crosslinking Allosteric Sites on the Nucleosome Core Particle

Lucinda Kate Batchelor

Designing compounds that bind to the acidic patch of the nucleosome core particle (NCP) is an emerging therapeutic approach that can inhibit the binding of key chromatin factors. Pretreatment of human ovarian carcinoma, A2780, cells with RAPTA-T, an antime ...

AMBER and CHARMM Force Fields Inconsistently Portray the Microscopic Details of Phosphorylation

Veronika Juraskova

Phosphorylation of serine, threonine, and tyrosine is one of the most frequently occurring and crucial post-translational modifications of proteins often associated with important structural and functional changes. We investigated the direct effect of phos ...

Atomic Motif Recognition in (Bio)Polymers: Benchmarks From the Protein Data Bank

Michele Ceriotti, Piero Gasparotto, Benjamin Aaron Helfrecht, Federico Giberti

Rationalizing the structure and structure–property relations for complex materials such as polymers or biomolecules relies heavily on the identification of local atomic motifs, e.g., hydrogen bonds and secondary structure patterns, that are seen as buildin ...

Transmembrane Prolines Mediate Signal Sensing and Decoding in Bacillus subtilis DesK Histidine Kinase

Matteo Dal Peraro, Luciano Andres Abriata

Environmental awareness is an essential attribute of all organisms. The homeoviscous adaptation system of Bacillus subtilis provides a powerful experimental model for the investigation of stimulus detection and signaling mechanisms at the molecular level. ...

The static and dynamic structural heterogeneities of B-DNA: extending Calladine-Dickerson rules

John Maddocks, Daiva Petkeviciute, Alessandro Samuele Patelli, Marco Pasi

We present a multi-laboratory effort to describe the structural and dynamical properties of duplex B-DNA under physiological conditions. By processing a large amount of atomistic molecular dynamics simulations, we determine the sequence-dependent structura ...

Electronic Relaxation Dynamics of UV-Photoexcited 2-Aminopurine-Thymine Base Pairs in Watson-Crick and Hoogsteen Conformations

Rebecca Ann Ingle, Hugo Jean Baptiste Marroux

The fluorescent analogue 2-aminopurine (2AP) of the canonical nucleobase adenine (6-aminopurine) base-pairs with thymine (T) without disrupting the helical structure of DNA. It therefore finds frequent use in molecular biology for probing DNA and RNA struc ...

Long-lived Photo-Charges in 1D Helical Organic Semiconductor Nanostructures

Regina Judith Hafner

The formation of photoexcited states in organic semiconductors, their separation into long-lived or stable charge carriers, as well as the charge transport are critical processes relevant to several important research fields and emerging technologies. Whil ...

Peptide-Cation Systems: Conformational Search, Benchmark Evaluation, and Force Field Parameter Adjustment Using Regularized Linear Regression

Markus Schneider

Metal cations often play an important role in shaping the three-dimensional structure of peptides. As an example, the model system AcPheAla5LysH+ is investigated in order to fully understand the forces that stabilize its helical structure. In particular, t ...

Unintended specificity of an engineered ligand-binding protein facilitated by unpredicted plasticity of the protein fold

Kai Johnsson, Alberto Schena

Attempts to create novel ligand-binding proteins often focus on formation of a binding pocket with shape complementarity against the desired ligand (particularly for compounds that lack distinct polar moieties). Although designed proteins often exhibit bin ...

An Automatic, Data-Driven Definition of Atomic-Scale Structural Motifs

Piero Gasparotto

Structure-property relationships at the atomic scale are usually understood in terms of recurrent structural motifs formed by atoms and molecules, and how they transform and interact with each other. We introduce with this thesis a novel analysis approach, ...

Can Mutational Analysis Be Used To Assist Structure Determination of Peptides?

Thomas Rizzo, Liudmila Voronina, Valeriu Scutelnic, Chiara Masellis

Mutational analysis is widely used to study the relationship between sequence and structure of proteins and peptides. It is often assumed that substituting a proline with another amino acid "locks" the peptide bond in the trans conformation, allowing only ...

3D Steerable CNNs: Learning Rotationally Equivariant Features in Volumetric Data

Mario Geiger

We present a convolutional network that is equivariant to rigid body motions. The model uses scalar-, vector-, and tensor fields over 3D Euclidean space to represent data, and equivariant convolutions to map between such representations. These SE(3)-equiva ...
