Open AccessUnraveling the functional dark matter through global metagenomics
Metagenomes encode an enormous diversity of proteins, reflecting a multiplicity of functions and activities1,2. Exploration of this vast sequence space has been limited to a comparative analysis against reference...

Structural characterization and molecular dynamics simulations of the caprine and bovine solute carrier family 11 A1 (SLC11A1)
Natural Resistance-Associated Macrophage Proteins are a family of transmembrane divalent metal ion transporters, with important implications in life of both bacteria and mammals. Among them, the Solute Carrier...

Molecular dynamics simulations and structure-based network analysis reveal structural and functional aspects of G-protein coupled receptor dimer interactions
A significant amount of experimental evidence suggests that G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) do not act exclusively as monomers but also form biologically relevant dimers and oligomers. However, the structu...

A β-solenoid model of the Pmel17 repeat domain: insights to the formation of functional amyloid fibrils
Pmel17 is a multidomain protein involved in biosynthesis of melanin. This process is facilitated by the formation of Pmel17 amyloid fibrils that serve as a scaffold, important for pigment deposition in melanos...
