Conformation and lytic activity of eumenine mastoparan: A new antimicrobial peptide from wasp venom
(2004-09-01)
Eumenine mastoparan-AF (EMP-AF) is a novel membrane active tetradecapeptide recently isolated from the venom of solitary wasp, Anterhynchium flavomarginatum micado. It was reported previously that EMP-AF peptide presented ...

The cotranscribed Salmonella enterica sv. Typhi Tsx and impX genes encode opposing nucleoside-specific import and export proteins
(Genetics Society of America [Society Publisher] Oxford University Press [University Publisher], 2006-05)
The Salmonella enterica tsx gene encodes a nucleoside-specific outer membrane channel. The Tsx porin is essential for the prototrophic growth of S. enterica sv. Typhi in the absence of nucleosides. RT-PCR analysis shows ...
Structural insights into the oligomerization and architecture of eukaryotic membrane pore-forming toxins
(Elsevier, 2011-02)
Pore-forming toxins (PFTs) are proteins that are secreted as soluble molecules and are inserted into membranes to form oligomeric transmembrane pores. In this paper, we report the crystal structure of Fragaceatoxin C (FraC), ...
Characterization of fatty acid binding and transfer from ∆98∆, a functional all-β abridged form of IFABP
(Elsevier Science, 2014-12)
Intestinal fatty acid binding protein (IFABP) is an intracellular lipid binding protein whose specific functions within the cell are still uncertain. An abbreviated version of IFABP encompassing residues 29–126, dubbed ...
Crystallographic and spectroscopic characterization of a molecular hinge: Conformational changes in bothropstoxin I, a dimeric Lys49 phospholipase A2 homologue
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1998-03-01)
Bothropstoxin I(BthTX-I) from the venom of Bothrops jararacussu is a myotoxic phospholipase A2 (PLA2) homologue which, although catalytically inactive due to an Asp49-->Lys substitution, disrupts the integrity of lipid ...
