Minireview - Microtubules and Tubulin Oligomers: Shape Transitions and Assembly by Intrinsically Disordered Protein Tau and Cationic Biomolecules

Journal Article Safinya, Cyrus R. ; Chung, Peter J. ; Song, Chaeyeon ; ... - Langmuir

In this minireview, which is part of a special issue in honor of Jacob N. Israelachvili’s remarkable research career on intermolecular forces and interfacial science, we present studies of structures, phase behavior, and forces in reaction mixtures of microtubules (MTs) and tubulin oligomers with either intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) Tau, cationic vesicles, or the polyamine spermine (4+). Bare MTs consist of 13 protofilaments (PFs), on average, where each PF is made of a linear stack of αβ-tubulin dimers (i.e., tubulin oligomers). We begin with a series of experiments which demonstrate the flexibility of PFs toward shape changes in response tomore »« less

Compositions and methods for modulating kinase activity

Patent Kern, Dorothee ; Zorba, Adelajda

The present invention features an antibody mimetic, or an antigen binding fragment thereof, that specifically binds to an allosteric site of Aurora A kinase, therapeutic compositions comprising this antibody mimetic, and the use of the monobody to modulate Aurora A kinase for the treatment of cancer.

Evolutionary drivers of thermoadaptation in enzyme catalysis

Journal Article Nguyen, Vy ; Wilson, Christopher ; Hoemberger, Marc ; ... - Science

With early life likely to have existed in a hot environment, enzymes had to cope with an inherent drop in catalytic speed caused by lowered temperature. Here we characterize the molecular mechanisms underlying thermoadaptation of enzyme catalysis in adenylate kinase using ancestral sequence reconstruction spanning 3 billion years of evolution. We show that evolution solved the enzyme’s key kinetic obstacle—how to maintain catalytic speed on a cooler Earth—by exploiting transition-state heat capacity. Tracing the evolution of enzyme activity and stability from the hot-start toward modern hyperthermophilic, mesophilic, and psychrophilic organisms illustrates active pressure versus passive drift in evolution on amore »« less

Dynamics of human protein kinase Aurora A linked to drug selectivity

Journal Article Pitsawong, Warintra ; Buosi, Vanessa ; Otten, Renee ; ... - eLife

Protein kinases are major drug targets, but the development of highly-selective inhibitors has been challenging due to the similarity of their active sites. The observation of distinct structural states of the fully-conserved Asp-Phe-Gly (DFG) loop has put the concept of conformational selection for the DFG-state at the center of kinase drug discovery. Recently, it was shown that Gleevec selectivity for the Tyr-kinase Abl was instead rooted in conformational changes after drug binding. Here, we investigate whether protein dynamics after binding is a more general paradigm for drug selectivity by characterizing the binding of several approved drugs to the Ser/Thr-kinase Auroramore »« less
