Cyclic nucleotides are second messengers that essential in vision, muscle contraction, neurotransmission, exocytosis, cell growth, and differentiation. These molecules degraded by a family of enzymes known as phosphodiesterases, which serve critical function regulating the intracellular concentration cyclic nucleotides. We have determined three-dimensional structure catalytic domain phosphodiesterase 4B2B to 1.77 angstrom resolution. The active site has been identified contains cluster two...

Analysis of the x-ray crystal structure mono-substituted acetylenic thienopyrimidine 6 complexed with ErbB family enzyme ErbB-4 revealed a covalent bond between terminal carbon acetylene moiety and sulfhydryl group Cys-803 at solvent interface. The identification this adduct suggested that related analogs might also be capable forming an analogous EGFR, which has conserved cysteine (797) near ATP binding pocket. To test hypothesis, we treated truncated, catalytically competent form EGFR...
Bleomycin is a metal- and oxygen-dependent DNA cleaver. The chemistry of damage has been proposed to involve rate-limiting abstraction the 4′-hydrogen. A fragment prepared that contains [4′- 2 H]thymidine residues high isotopic content. Primary kinetic isotope effects have directly observed at individual thymidine with sequencing technology.
The solution structure of Co·Bleomycin (CoBLM) A2 green (the hydroperoxide form CoBLM) complexed with the self-complementary oligonucleotide d(CCAGGCCTGG) a cleavage site at C6 has been determined by 2D NMR spectroscopic methods and molecular dynamics calculations. Intermolecular NOEs (60 between CoBLM DNA) intramolecular (61 within green) have defined position orientation respect to its single binding in duplex. is stable analog activated BLM, Fe3+ (Sam, J.

The structure of homogeneous Co·Bleomycin (CoBLM) A2 green (the hydroperoxide form CoBLM) has been determined using 2D NMR methods and molecular dynamics calculations. Previous studies Xu et al. (Xu, R. X.; Nettesheim, D.; Otvos, J. Petering, D. H. Biochemistry 1994, 33, 907−916) reported several possible structures for CoBLM compatible with their data acquired on a mixture brown forms. availability the pure green, which is stable months at neutral pH, allowed complete assignments 1H 13C...

Numerous biochemical and structural studies have shown that the conformation of estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) can be influenced by ligand binding. In turn, conformational state ERalpha affects ability to interact with a wide variety protein accessory factors. To globally investigate ligand-based cofactor recruitment activities ERalpha, we applied flow cytometric multiplexed binding assay determine simultaneous over 50 different peptides derived from both known proteins random peptide...
A model for the structure of aquated form cobalt bleomycin (H2O-CoBLM or CoBLM A2 brown), free and bound to d(CCAGGCCTGG)2 (1) is reported based on molecular modeling using constraints obtained from 2D NMR studies. brown has a chiral organization its ligands, including axial primary amine β-aminoalanine, identical hydroperoxide BLM (HOO-CoBLM green).

NMR studies of the hydroperoxide form cobalt deglycoBleomycin A2 (HOO−CodGBLM) and its complex with oligonucleotide d(CCAGGCCTGG) (1, C is site cleavage) are presented in an effort to establish deglycoBLM as a prototype for BLM analogues, synthesized without sugar moieties (Boger et al. Bioorg. Med. Chem. 1995, 3, 1281−1295). The structure determination free HOO−CodGBLM has been hampered by lack NOE or ROE information.
