However, the structure of the winged-helix protein, hRFX1, bound to DNA reported in a recent issue of Nature 1 has revealed a striking counter example to this rule. Figure 1: Structure of two ...
It is now ~50 years since the discovery of the atomic structure of the α-helix by Linus Pauling. Like the other great helical structure in biology, the double helix of B-DNA, it was ultimately ...
If that helix cannot be successfully woven into the cell's membrane ... Kalinin et al, Features of membrane protein sequence direct post-translational insertion, Nature Communications (2024). DOI: ...
