Structural analysis of the interactions between paxillin LD motifs and alpha-parvinSonja Lorenz
Laboratory of Molecular Biophysics, University of Oxford, Oxford OX1 3QU, United Kingdom
Structure 16:1521-31. 2008..Taken together, these results reveal an unusual degree of binding degeneracy in the paxillin/alpha-parvin system that may facilitate the assembly of dynamic signaling complexes in the cell...
Identification and structural analysis of type I collagen sites in complex with fibronectin fragmentsMichele C Erat
Department of Biochemistry, University of Oxford, Oxford OX1 3QU, United Kingdom
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 106:4195-200. 2009..We demonstrate, by kinetic unfolding experiments, that the triple-helical collagen state is destabilized by (8-9)FnI. This finding suggests a role for fibronectin in collagen proteolysis and tissue remodeling...
