Regulation by ubiquitin depends on E3 ligases forging chains of specific topologies, yet the mechanisms underlying the generation of atypical linkages remain largely elusive. Here we utilize biochemistry, chemistry, and cryo-EM to define the catalytic arch ...

Detailed understanding of the mechanism by which Hsp70 chaperones protect cells against protein aggregation is hampered by the lack of a comprehensive characterization of the aggregates, which are typically heterogeneous. Here we designed a reporter chaper ...

The nanopore electrical approach is a breakthrough in single molecular level detection of particles as small as ions, and complex as biomolecules. This technique can be used for molecule analysis and characterization as well as for the understanding of con ...

Ubiquitin-specific protease 19 (USP19) is one of the deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) involved in regulating the ubiquitination status of substrate proteins. There are two major isoforms of USP19 with distinct C-termini; the USP19_a isoform has a transmembr ...

The prediction of protein-protein interactions and their structural configuration remains a largely unsolved problem. Most of the algorithms aimed at finding the native conformation of a protein complex starting from the structure of its monomers are based ...

The precise tuning of gene expression levels is essential for the optimal performance of transcriptional regulatory networks. We created 209 variants of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae PHO5 promoter to quantify how different binding sites for the transcriptio ...

Clinical approaches for tumor treatment often rely on combination therapy where a DNA damaging agent is used in combination with a DNA repair protein inhibitor. For this reason, great efforts have been made during the last decade to identify inhibitors of ...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) comprise a large set of short noncoding RNAs that bind to messenger RNAs (mRNAs) to reduce their translation into functional proteins. Computational prediction of miRNA targets is the first stage in the discovery and validation of new re ...

Peptides are an attractive class of molecules for the development of therapeutics because they combine unique properties such as high binding affinity, excellent target specificity, low toxicity and a relatively small mass. However, the short in vivo half- ...
