Governing principles of transcriptional logic out of equilibrium Biophys. J. (IF 3.4) Pub Date : 2024-03-14 Smruti Dixit, Teije C. Middelkoop, Sandeep Choubey
To survive, adapt, and develop, cells respond to external and internal stimuli, by tightly regulating transcription. Transcriptional regulation involves the combinatorial binding of a repertoire of transcription factors (TFs) to DNA, which often results in switch-like binary outputs, akin to Boolean logic gates. Recent experimental studies have demonstrated that in eukaryotes, transcription factor

Bending of a Lipid Membrane Edge by Annexin A5 Trimers Biophys. J. (IF 3.4) Pub Date : 2024-03-14 Mayank Prakash Pandey, Paulo Cesar Telles de Souza, Weria Pezeshkian, Himanshu Khandelia
Plasma membrane damage occurs in healthy cells and more frequently in cancer cells where high growth rates and metastasis result in frequent membrane damage. The annexin family of proteins plays a key role in membrane repair. Annexins are recruited at the membrane injury site by Ca, and repair the damaged membrane in concert with several other proteins. Annexin A4 and Annexin A5 (ANXA5) form trimers

Calculation of Protein-Ligand Binding Entropies Using a Rule-Based Molecular Fingerprint Biophys. J. (IF 3.4) Pub Date : 2024-03-13 Ali Risheh, Alles Rebel, Paul S. Nerenberg, Negin Forouzesh
The use of fast prediction methods for protein-ligand binding free energies holds significant promise for the initial phases of drug development. Numerous traditional physics-based models (e.g., implicit solvent models), however, tend to either neglect or heavily approximate entropic contributions to binding due to their computational complexity. Consequently, such methods often yield imprecise assessments

Membrane-associated protein phase separation plays critical roles in cell biology, driving essential cellular phenomena from immune signaling to membrane traffic. Importantly, by reducing dimensionality from three to two dimensions, lipid bilayers can nucleate phase separation at far lower concentrations compared to those required for phase separation in solution. How might other intracellular lipid

The ATPase Asymmetry: Novel Computational Insight into Coupling Diverse FO Motors with Tripartite F1 Biophys. J. (IF 3.4) Pub Date : 2024-03-08 Shintaroh Kubo, Yasushi Okada
ATP synthase, a crucial enzyme for cellular bioenergetics, operates via the coordinated coupling of a F motor, which presents variable symmetry, and a tripartite F motor. Despite extensive research, the understanding of their coupling dynamics, especially with non-10-fold symmetrical F motors, remains incomplete. This study investigates the coupling patterns between 8- and 9-fold F motors and the constant

COG0523 proteins, also known as nucleotide-dependent metallochaperones, are a poorly understood class of small P-loop G3E GTPases. Multiple family members play critical roles in bacterial pathogen survival during an infection as part of the adaptive response to host-mediated “nutritional immunity.” Our understanding of the structure, dynamics, and molecular-level function of COG0523 proteins, apart

Mitigating transcription noise via protein sharing in syncytial cells Biophys. J. (IF 3.4) Pub Date : 2024-03-08 Alex Mayer, Jiayu Li, Grace McLaughlin, Amy Gladfelter, Marcus Roper
Bursty transcription allows nuclei to concentrate the work of transcribing mRNA into short, intermittent intervals, potentially reducing transcriptional interference. However, bursts of mRNA production can increase noise in protein abundances. Here, we formulate models for gene expression in syncytia, or multinucleate cells, showing that protein abundance noise may be mitigated locally via spatial

Interplay between environmental yielding and dynamic forcing modulates bacterial growth Biophys. J. (IF 3.4) Pub Date : 2024-03-07 Anna M. Hancock, Sujit S. Datta
Many bacterial habitats—ranging from gels and tissues in the body to cell-secreted exopolysaccharides in biofilms—are rheologically complex, undergo dynamic external forcing, and have unevenly distributed nutrients. How do these features jointly influence how the resident cells grow and proliferate? Here, we address this question by studying the growth of dispersed in granular hydrogel matrices with

Many membrane proteins are modulated by cholesterol. Here we report profound effects of cholesterol depletion and restoration on the human voltage-gated proton channel, hH1, in excised patches but with negligible effects in the whole-cell configuration. Despite the presence of a putative cholesterol-binding site, a CARC motif in hH1, mutation of this motif did not affect cholesterol effects. The murine

A cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) is a short amino-acid sequence capable of efficiently translocating across the cellular membrane of mammalian cells. However, the potential of CPPs as a delivery vector is hampered by the strong reduction of its translocation efficiency when it bears an attached molecular cargo. To overcome this problem, we used previously developed diblock copolymers of elastin-like

Real-time single-molecule imaging of CaMKII-calmodulin interactions Biophys. J. (IF 3.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-28 Shahid Khan, Justin E. Molloy, Henry Puhl, Howard Schulman, Steven S. Vogel
The binding of calcium/calmodulin (CAM) to calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) initiates an ATP-driven cascade that triggers CaMKII autophosphorylation. The autophosphorylation in turn increases the CaMKII affinity for CAM. Here, we studied the ATP dependence of CAM association with the actin-binding CaMKIIβ isoform using single-molecule total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy

Interstitial fluid flow is a feature of many solid tumors. In vitro experiments have shown that such fluid flow can direct tumor cell movement upstream or downstream depending on the balance between the competing mechanisms of tensotaxis (cell migration up stress gradients) and autologous chemotaxis (downstream cell movement in response to flow-induced gradients of self-secreted chemoattractants).

Identical sequences, different behaviors: Protein diversity captured at the single-molecule level Biophys. J. (IF 3.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-28 Rafael Tapia-Rojo, Alvaro Alonso-Caballero, Carmen L. Badilla, Julio M. Fernandez
The classical “one sequence, one structure, one function” paradigm has shaped much of our intuition of how proteins work inside the cell. Partially due to the insight provided by bulk biochemical assays, individual biomolecules are often assumed to behave as identical entities, and their characterization relies on ensemble averages that flatten any conformational diversity into a unique phenotype.

Large-conductance Ca-activated K channels (BK channels) are formed by Slo1 subunits as a homotetramer. Besides Ca, other divalent cations, such as Cd, also activate BK channels when applied intracellularly by shifting the conductance-voltage relation to more negative voltages. However, we found that if the inside-out patch containing BK channels was treated with solution containing reducing agents

The effect of plasmin-mediated degradation on fibrinolysis and tissue plasminogen activator diffusion Biophys. J. (IF 3.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-15 Brittany E. Bannish, Bradley Paynter, Rebecca Risman, Mitali Shroff, Valerie Tutwiler
We modify a three-dimensional multiscale model of fibrinolysis to study the effect of plasmin-mediated degradation of fibrin on tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) diffusion and fibrinolysis. We propose that tPA is released from a fibrin fiber by simple kinetic unbinding, as well as by “forced unbinding,” which occurs when plasmin degrades fibrin to which tPA is bound. We show that, if tPA is bound

Peptide translocation across asymmetric phospholipid membranes Biophys. J. (IF 3.4) Pub Date : 2024-02-15 Ladislav Bartoš, Robert Vácha
The transport of molecules across cell membranes is vital for proper cell function and effective drug delivery. While most cell membranes naturally possess an asymmetric lipid composition, research on membrane transport predominantly uses symmetric lipid membranes. The permeation through the asymmetric membrane is then calculated as a sum of the inverse permeabilities of leaflets from symmetric bilayers
