The DEAD box helicase YxiN maintains a closed conformation during ATP hydrolysis.

15 Nov 2009 DEAD box helicases unwind RNA duplexes at the expense of ATP hydrolysis. Recently, unwinding has been demonstrated in the absence of ATP hydrolysis. Herein, we show that ADP.BeF(x) supports RNA unwinding by YxiN, a DEAD box helicase that ... Read more...


How does a scanning ribosomal particle move along the 5'-untranslated region of eukaryotic mRNA? Brownian Ratchet model.

15 Nov 2009 A model of the ATP-dependent unidirectional movement of the 43S ribosomal initiation complex (=40S ribosomal subunit + eIF1 + eIF1A + eIF2.GTP.Met-tRNA(i) + eIF3) during scanning of the 5'-untranslated region of eukaryotic mRNA is proposed. The ... Read more...


Toward understanding the function of the universally conserved GTPase HflX from Escherichia coli: a kinetic approach.

15 Nov 2009 Protein synthesis is a highly conserved process in all living cells involving several members of the translation factor (TRAFAC) class of P-loop GTPases, which play essential roles during translation. The universally conserved GTPase HflX has ... Read more...
