The pore conformation of lymphocyte perforin

Marina E. Ivanova et al.

Summary: Perforin is a protein that forms pores to facilitate the killing of infected or cancerous cells by the immune system. It is released from cytotoxic lymphocytes and binds to target cell membranes, leading to the rapid death of the target cells. The structure and formation process of the perforin pores have been studied, providing insights into their stability and the effects of pathogenic mutations.

Dissecting peripheral protein-membrane interfaces

Thibault Tubiana et al.

Summary: Peripheral membrane proteins (PMPs) can transiently bind to cell membranes and play important roles in various cellular processes. In this study, the authors collected a dataset of PMP structures and analyzed their amino acid composition and structural patterns. The results revealed that hydrophobic and aromatic amino acids are commonly found at the membrane-binding sites of PMPs, while glycine is overrepresented in these sites. These findings provide valuable insights into the characteristics of PMP membrane-binding sites and can contribute to the development of prediction models for these sites.

Calcium binds and rigidifies the dysferlin C2A domain in a tightly coupled manner

Yuning Wang et al.

Summary: The membrane protein dysferlin is crucial for calcium-activated plasma membrane repair in muscle fibre cells, with mutations in the DYSF gene causing rare genetic forms of muscular dystrophy. The C2A domain of dysferlin plays a significant role in facilitating calcium-sensitive interactions with membrane surfaces. Research suggests that dysferlin may use a 'calcium-catching' mechanism to respond to calcium influx during membrane repair.
