  1. 1. Molecular mechanisms underlying the activation of ALC1 nucleosome remodeling

    Författare :Luka Bacic; Sebastian Deindl; Stefan D. Knight; Lari Lehtiö; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ALC1; CHD1L; nucleosome; ADP-ribosylation; chromatin; remodeling; PARP1; HPF1; DNA damage; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Packaging DNA into chromatin represses essential DNA-based processes, such as transcription, DNA replication, and repair. To change the accessibility of DNA, cells have evolved a set of enzymes referred to as chromatin remodelers that act on the basic repeat unit of chromatin,  the nucleosome. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Of spiders, bugs, and men : Structural and functional studies of proteins involved in assembly

    Författare :Wangshu Jiang; Stefan D Knight; Steve J. Matthews; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein assembly; sulfate transporter; crystallography; Proteus mirabilis; fimbriae; adhesin; urinary tract infection; biofilm; spider silk; asymmetric dimer; Bri2; BRICHOS; molecular chaperone; Alzheimer s disease; amyloid; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Protein assembly enables complex machineries while being economical with genetic information. However, protein assembly also constitutes a potential threat to the host, and needs to be carefully regulated.Sulfate is a common source of sulfur for cysteine synthesis in bacteria. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Allosteric control of ALC1-catalyzed nucleosome remodeling

    Författare :Laura C. Lehmann; Sebastian Deindl; Stefan D. Knight; Felix Müller-Planitz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ALC1; CHD1L; ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling; nucleosome; allosteric regulation; autoinhibition; macro domain; PARP; ADP-ribosylation; DNA damage; acidic patch; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylärbiologi; Biology with specialization in Structural Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot strukturbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The genetic information of eukaryotic cells is packaged inside the nucleus as chromatin. This packaging restricts access to the DNA and therefore represents a barrier for processes such as DNA replication, repair, and gene expression. LÄS MER
