Conformational Sampling and Nucleotide-Dependent Transitions of the GroEL Subunit Probed by Unbiased Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Skjærven, Lars; Grant, Barry; Muga, Arturo; Teigen, Knut; McCammon, J. Andrew; Reuter, Nathalie; Martinez, Aurora (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-03-10)GroEL is an ATP dependent molecular chaperone that promotes the folding of a large number of substrate proteins in E. coli. Large-scale conformational transitions occurring during the reaction cycle have been characterized ... -
Conformational stabilization as a strategy to prevent nucleophosmin mislocalization in leukemia
Urbaneja, María A.; Skjærven, Lars; Aubi Catevilla, Oscar; Underhaug, Jarl; López, David J.; Arregi, Igor; Alonso-Mariño, Marián; Cuevas, Andoni; Rodríguez, José A.; Martinez, Aurora; Bañuelos, Sonia (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-10-24)Nucleophosmin (NPM) is a nucleolar protein involved in ribosome assembly and cell homeostasis. Mutations in the C-terminal domain of NPM that impair native folding and localization are associated with acute myeloid leukemia ... -
Integrating protein structural dynamics and evolutionary analysis with Bio3D
Skjærven, Lars; Yao, Xin-Qiu; Scarabelli, Guido; Grant, Barry J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-12-10)Background: Popular bioinformatics approaches for studying protein functional dynamics include comparisons of crystallographic structures, molecular dynamics simulations and normal mode analysis. However, determining how ... -

(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-11)Bio3D-web is an online application for analyzing the sequence, structure and conformational heterogeneity of protein families. Major functionality is provided for identifying protein structure sets for analysis, their ... -
The Peripheral Binding of 14-3-3γ to Membranes Involves Isoform-Specific Histidine Residues
Bustad, Helene J.; Skjærven, Lars; Ying, Ming; Halskau, Øyvind; Baumann, Anne; Rodriguez-Larrea, David; Costas, Miguel; Underhaug, Jarl; Sanchez-Ruiz, Jose M.; Martinez, Aurora (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-11-26)Mammalian 14-3-3 protein scaffolds include seven conserved isoforms that bind numerous phosphorylated protein partners and regulate many cellular processes. Some 14-3-3-isoforms, notably γ, have elevated affinity for ... -
A Pharmacological Chaperone Therapy for Acute Intermittent Porphyria
Bustad, Helene J.; Toska, Karen; Schmitt, Caroline; Vorland, Marta; Skjærven, Lars; Kallio, Juha Pekka; Simonin, Sylvie; Lettéron, Philippe; Underhaug, Jarl; Sandberg, Sverre; Martinez, Aurora (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-12-03)Mutations in hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS) cause acute intermittent porphyria (AIP), an autosomal dominant disease where typically only one HMBS allele is mutated. In AIP, the accumulation of porphyrin precursors ... -
Stable preparations of tyrosine hydroxylase provide the solution structure of the full-length enzyme
Bezem, Maria Teresa; Baumann, Anne; Skjærven, Lars; Meyer, Romain; Kursula, Petri; Martinez, Aurora; Flydal, Marte Innselset (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-07-27)Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the biosynthesis of catecholamine neurotransmitters. TH is a highly complex enzyme at mechanistic, structural, and regulatory levels, and the preparation of ...
