Crystal structure and biochemical analysis suggest that YjoB ATPase is a putative substrate-specific molecular chaperone.

Journal Article Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America · October 2022 AAA+ ATPases are ubiquitous proteins associated with most cellular processes, including DNA unwinding and protein unfolding. Their functional and structural properties are typically determined by domains and motifs added to the conserved ATPases domain. Cu ... Full text Open Access Cite

Structural analysis of the regulation of blue-light receptors by GIGANTEA.

Journal Article Cell reports · April 2022 In Arabidopsis, GIGANTEA (GI), together with the blue-light receptors ZTL, LKP2, and FKF1, regulates degradation of the core clock protein TOC1 and the flowering repressor CDFs, thereby controlling circadian oscillation and flowering. Despite the significa ... Full text Cite

Crystal structure of a tandem B-box domain from Arabidopsis CONSTANS.

Journal Article Biochemical and biophysical research communications · April 2022 CONSTANS is a central protein in the regulation of photoperiodic flowering, which is expressed in response to day length and promotes the expression of Flowering Locus T. The tandem B-box domain in CONSTANS mediates interactions with various proteins to re ... Full text Cite
