Stabilization of a compact conformation of monomeric GroEL at low temperature by adenine nucleotides.

abstract：:Physicochemical properties of proteins are controlled mainly by post-translational modifications such as amino acid phosphorylation. Although molecular dynamics simulations have been shown to be a valuable tool for studying the effects of phosphorylation on protein structure and dynamics, most of the previous studies ...

abstract：:Little is known about the mechanisms underlying calcium-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) in plants. The slow-activating vacuolar (SV) channel is both permeable to, and activated by Ca2+, and is therefore a prime candidate for a role in CICR. Cytosol-side-out vacuolar membrane vesicles loaded with 45Ca2+ showed voltage- and...
