Dissect conformational distribution and drug-induced population shift of prokaryotic rRNA A-site.

Abstract:

:The dynamic behavior of the rRNA A-site plays an important functional role. We have employed femtosecond time-resolved spectroscopy to investigate the nature of the conformational dynamics. In the drug-free state, the A-site samples multiple distinct conformations. Drug binding shifts the population distribution in a drug-specific manner. Motions of bases on nanosecond and picosecond time scales are differentially affected by the drug binding. Our results underscore the importance of understanding the detailed dynamic picture of molecular recognition by resolving dynamics in the distinct picosecond time regime and facilitate development of antimicrobial drugs targeting dynamic RNAs.

  • Identification of Filamin A Mechanobinding Partner I: Smoothelin Specifically Interacts with the Filamin A Mechanosensitive Domain 21.

    abstract::Filamin A (FLNA) is a ubiquitously expressed actin cross-linking protein and a scaffold of numerous binding partners to regulate cell proliferation, migration, and survival. FLNA is a homodimer, and each subunit has an N-terminal actin-binding domain followed by 24 immunoglobulin-like repeats (R). FLNA mediates mechan...
