Comparative Assessment of NMR Probes for the Experimental Description of Protein Folding Pathways with High-Pressure NMR

Vincent Van Deuren et al.

Summary: High-pressure multidimensional NMR has emerged as a powerful tool to describe protein folding landscapes due to its gentle perturbation nature and the multiple probes strategically scattered on the protein structure. The NH amide, C alpha H alpha, and CH3 groups provide similar descriptions of folding pathways with slight differences in thermodynamic parameters, making them valuable for exploring protein conformational landscapes.

On topology and knotty entanglement in protein folding

Alexander Begun et al.

Summary: The study reveals that protein folding and unfolding involving slipknots are topological processes, forming a trefoil knot folding intermediate and causing slight swelling of the structure upon final slipknot formation. The relative stability of strands and helices differs during the folding and unfolding processes, and simulating the formation of knotty self-entanglement presents challenges that can be addressed by adjusting bending stiffness and cooling speed.

Conserved patterns and interactions in the unfolding transition state across SH3 domain structural homologues

Cullen Demakis et al.

Summary: This study uses high temperature unfolding simulations to explore the folding and unfolding pathways of the SH3 domain. Results show that SH3 domain proteins with different sequences can unfold through two main pathways, while certain structural characteristics remain conserved regardless of sequence. Disparate sequences can provide similar interactions that influence folding and lead to similar structures.

Topological principles of protein folding

Barbara Scalvini et al.

Summary: The relationship between the topology of a protein and its folding kinetics is explored in this study. Basic topological features can influence the folding rate and mechanistic insight into folding mechanisms can be inferred from topological parameters. The study introduces a new mathematical framework to define and extract the topology of native protein conformations.
