Open AccessASXLs binding to the PHD2/3 fingers of MLL4 provides a mechanism for the recruitment of BAP1 to active enhancers
The human methyltransferase and transcriptional coactivator MLL4 and its paralog MLL3 are frequently mutated in cancer. MLL4 and MLL3 monomethylate histone H3K4 and contain a set of uncharacterized PHD fingers...

Motif-dependent binding on the intervening domain regulates O-GlcNAc transferase
The modification of intracellular proteins with O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) moieties is a highly dynamic process that spatiotemporally regulates nearly every important cellular program. Despite its ...

Open AccessIdentification of motif-based interactions between SARS-CoV-2 protein domains and human peptide ligands pinpoint antiviral targets
The virus life cycle depends on host-virus protein-protein interactions, which often involve a disordered protein region binding to a folded protein domain. Here, we used proteomic peptide phage display (ProP-...

Open AccessLarge-scale phage-based screening reveals extensive pan-viral mimicry of host short linear motifs
Viruses mimic host short linear motifs (SLiMs) to hijack and deregulate cellular functions. Studies of motif-mediated interactions therefore provide insight into virus-host dependencies, and reveal targets for...

Open AccessLarge scale discovery of coronavirus-host factor protein interaction motifs reveals SARS-CoV-2 specific mechanisms and vulnerabilities
Viral proteins make extensive use of short peptide interaction motifs to hijack cellular host factors. However, most current large-scale methods do not identify this important class of protein-protein interact...
