• PFN2 and NAA80 cooperate to efficiently acetylate the N-terminus of actin 

      Reed, Rasmus; Kind, Laura; Kaziales, Anna; Varland, Sylvia; Dai, Minglu; Richter, Klaus; Drazic, Adrian; Arnesen, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      The actin cytoskeleton is of profound importance to cell shape, division, and intracellular force generation. Profilins bind to globular (G-)actin and regulate actin filament formation. Although profilins are well-established ...
    • Structural and biophysical characterization of transcription factor HNF-1A as a tool to study MODY3 diabetes variants 

      Kind, Laura; Raasakka, Arne; Molnes, Janne; Aukrust, Ingvild; Bjørkhaug, Lise; Njølstad, Pål Rasmus; Kursula, Petri; Arnesen, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1A (HNF-1A) is a transcription factor expressed in several embryonic and adult tissues, modulating the expression of numerous target genes. Pathogenic variants in the HNF1A gene are known to cause ...
    • Structural properties of the HNF-1A transactivation domain 

      Kind, Laura; Driver, Mark; Raasakka, Arne; Onck, Patrick R.; Njølstad, Pål Rasmus; Arnesen, Thomas; Kursula, Petri Tapani (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1α (HNF-1A) is a transcription factor with important gene regulatory roles in pancreatic β-cells. HNF1A gene variants are associated with a monogenic form of diabetes (HNF1A-MODY) or an increased ...
