- Thermodynamic characterization of Hsp90 interaction with other proteins, BP.PD
Abstract
The study of the interaction between Hsp90 and chaperones and the search for small molecules that can modulate Hsp90 function are of utmost importance for the advancement of scientific knowledge on various cellular mechanisms. Also, it may improve the search for new drugs to increase recombinant protein production and to decrease aggregates in pathological conditions. Full characterizat...
- Functional and structural characterization of the Bacillus's ZapA protein, BP.DR
Abstract
Bacterial cell division occurs through the formation of a contracting macromolecular complex, that yields two daughter cells. The key event is the assembly of a protein complex that changes the bacterial envelope growth direction, formed by a ring of FtsZ proteins, known as the Z ring, in the central region of the cell. Once the Z ring is formed, other proteins are recruited to the site...
- Interaction studies among the components of the ragulator complex by nuclear magnetic resonance, BP.MS
- Structural studies of the Bacillus stearothermophilus's ZapA protein, BE.EP.DR
Abstract
The bacterial division occurs through a citocinetic apparatus that shrinks, resulting in two daughter cells. This apparatus, also known as divisome, is a macromolecular complex responsible for the change in growth direction of the bacterial envelope (membrane and cell wall), creating the division septum. A key step in the division is the Z-ring formation, a prokaryotic tubulin polymer, ...
