Osmolyte-induced conformational changes in the Hsp90 molecular chaperone
2009
Protein Science
Here we investigate this issue with the Hsp90 molecular chaperone, a large dimeric protein that populates a complex conformational equilibrium. ...

Basal Activity of a PARP1-NuA4 Complex Varies Dramatically across Cancer Cell Lines
2014
Cell Reports
These findings present a pathway for PARP1 activation and a direct link between PARP1 and chromatin remodeling outside of the DNA damage response. ...
A discovered complex containing the NuA4 chromatin-remodeling complex and PARP1 was responsible for high basal PARP1 activity, and NuA4 subunits were required for this activity. ...

Extracellular Poly(ADP-Ribose) Is a Pro-inflammatory Signal for Macrophages
2015
Chemistry and Biology
All known PAR biology is intracellular, but we suspected it might also play a role in cell-to-cell communication during inflammation. ...
We found that PAR activated cytokine release in human and mouse macrophages, a hallmark of innate immune activation, and determined structure-activity relationships. ...

Intra- and Intermonomer Interactions Are Required to Synergistically Facilitate ATP Hydrolysis in Hsp90
2008
Journal of Biological Chemistry
This loop contains hydrophobic residues as well as a critical arginine that provides a direct linkage to the ␥-phosphate of bound ATP. ...
Using the crystal structures as a guide, we examined the role of intra-and intermonomer interactions in stabilizing the ATPase activity of a single active site within an intact dimer. ...

Grp94, the endoplasmic reticulum Hsp90, has a similar solution conformation to cytosolic Hsp90 in the absence of nucleotide
2009
Protein Science
These results provide the first evidence that Grp94 shares a conformational state with other Hsp90 homologs. ...
This conformation differs from the yeast AMPPNP-bound crystal state, suggesting that Grp94 may have a different conformational cycle. ...
Apo HtpG exists in a pH-dependent conformational equilibrium between an open-extended state and a more closed state (Krukenberg et al., in press). ...
