Protein under-wrapping causes dosage sensitivity and decreases gene duplicabilityHan Liang
Department of Ecology and Evolution, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois, United States of America
PLoS Genet 4:e11. 2008..Our under-wrapping analysis of more than 12,000 protein structures strongly supports these predictions and further reveals that the effect of dosage sensitivity on gene duplicability decreases with increasing organismal complexity...
Protein structure protection commits gene expression patternsJianping Chen
Program in Applied Physics, Rice Quantum Institute, Rice University, Houston, TX 77005, USA
Genome Biol 9:R107. 2008..Yet, little effort has been devoted to tracing coordinating signals for expression correlations to the three-dimensional structures of gene products...
Taming the induced folding of drug-targeted kinasesAriel Fernandez
Department of Bioengineering, Rice University, Houston, TX 77005, USA
Trends Pharmacol Sci 30:66-71. 2009..This concept is validated by dynamically examining structural adaptations promoted by imatinib redesigns intended to control drug specificity...
Human capacitance to dosage imbalance: coping with inefficient selectionAriel Fernandez
Department of Bioengineering, Rice University, Houston, Texas 77005, USA
Genome Res 19:2185-92. 2009..The results may clarify the evolutionary etiology of aggregation-related diseases, since aggregation is often promoted by overexpression (a dosage imbalance) and aggregation propensity is associated with extreme packing deficiency...
Solvent-exposed backbone loosens the hydration shell of soluble folded proteinsAriel Fernandez
Department of Bioengineering, Rice University, Houston, Texas 77005, USA
J Chem Phys 126:245103. 2007..These bonds are poorly wrapped by surrounding nonpolar groups from the side chains and their dehydration is energetically favored...
An anticancer C-Kit kinase inhibitor is reengineered to make it more active and less cardiotoxicAriel Fernandez
Department of Bioengineering and Applied Physics Division, Rice Quantum Institute, Rice University, Houston, Texas 77005, USA
J Clin Invest 117:4044-54. 2007..These findings identify the reengineered imatinib as an agent to treat GISTs with curbed side effects and reveal a bottom-up approach to control drug specificity...
Molecular basis for specificity in the druggable kinome: sequence-based analysisJianping Chen
Program in Applied Physics and Rice Quantum Institute, Rice University, Houston, TX 77005, USA
Bioinformatics 23:563-72. 2007..This work answers the question for a sizable screened sample of the human pharmacokinome including targets with unreported structure...
The novel MGC13096 protein is correlated with proliferationQiu Chen
College of Life Sciences, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, PR China
Cell Biochem Funct 26:141-5. 2008....
Biochemical and HIV-1 coreceptor properties of K26R, a new CCR5 Variant in China's Sichuan populationLiying Ma
INSERM U543, CHU Pitie Salpetriere, 75013 Paris, France
J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr 39:38-43. 2005..We observed that K26R displayed alteration in MIP1-beta/CCL4 and RANTES/CCL5 ligand binding and exhibited a slightly decrease for HIV coreceptor properties...
Leaves of the Lamiaceae species Glechoma hederacea (ground ivy) contain a lectin that is structurally and evolutionary related to the legume lectinsWeifang Wang
Laboratory for Phytopathology and Plant Protection, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Willem de Croylaan 42, 3001 Leuven, Belgium
Plant J 33:293-304. 2003....
