Protein-protein interfaces play fundamental roles in the molecular mechanisms underlying pathophysiological pathways and are important targets for the design of compounds of therapeutic interest. However, the identification of binding sites on protei...
Currently, information on the higher-order structure of Stomatin, Prohibitin, Flotillin, and HflK/C (SPFH)-domain proteins is limited. Briefly, the coordinate information (Refined PH1511.pdb) of the stomatin ortholog, PH1511 monomer, was obtained usi...
The hydration structures of proteins, which are necessary for their folding, stability, and functions, were visualized using X-ray and neutron crystallography and transmission electron microscopy. However, complete visualization of hydration structur...
To reach their final destinations, outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of gram-negative bacteria undertake an eventful journey beginning in the cytosol. Multiple molecular machines, chaperones, proteases, and other enzymes facilitate the translocation and...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) is an imaging technique that enables 3D visualization of the native cellular environment at sub-nanometer resolution, providing unpreceded insights into the molecular organization of cells....
Membrane protein classification is a key to inferring the function of uncharacterized membrane protein. To get around the time-consuming and expensive biochemical experiments in the wet lab, there has been a lot of research focusing on developing fas...
In cellular transportation mechanisms, the movement of ions across the cell membrane and its proper control are important for cells, especially for life processes. Ion transporters/pumps and ion channel proteins work as border guards controlling the ...

Amphipathic helix (AH)features the segregation of polar and nonpolar residues and plays important roles in many membrane-associated biological processes through interacting with both the lipid and the soluble phases. Although the AH structure has bee...
Cancer is a terrible disease, recent studies reported that tumor T cell antigens (TTCAs) may play a promising role in cancer treatment. Since experimental methods are still expensive and time-consuming, it is highly desirable to develop automatic com...
