The Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) Lyase and Lyase-Like Cupin Family Consists of Bona Fide DMSP lyases as Well as Other Enzymes with Unknown Function
TL;DR: A systematic profiling of substrate selectivity with a series of DMSP analogues indicated that some members, most distinctly DddY and DddL, are bona fideDMSP lyases, while others, foremost DddQ, may only exhibit promiscuous DMSP lyase activity.
A comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the serpin superfamily
TL;DR: It is shown that in addition to a central “hub” of highly conserved serpins, there has been extensive diversification of the superfamily into many novel functional clades and the hub proteins are ancient and are similar because of convergent evolution, rather than the alternative hypothesis of HGT.
Beyond blast: enabling microbiologists to better extract literature, taxonomic distributions and gene neighbourhood information for protein families.

TL;DR: A workflow that experimentalists can use to capture the most information published on members of a protein family in the least amount of time is devised and recommendations that can be used for experimentalist users, as well as educators, are provided.
Physiological insight into the conserved properties of <i>Caenorhabditis elegans</i> acid‐sensing degenerin/epithelial sodium channels
23 Oct 2022
TL;DR: In this article , the acid sensitivity of C. elegans DEG/ENaCs was evaluated using voltage clamp in Xenopus oocytes, and three acid-inhibited DEG-ENaC channels were identified.

Huiyong Jia,Swathi Dantuluri,Shae Margulies,Victoria Smith,Rebecca Lever,Thorsten Allers,Jin Koh,Sixue Chen,Julie A. Maupin-Furlow +8 more
TL;DR: In this article , a new type of nuclease complex, composed of RecJ3, RecJ4, and aRNase J, was identified through its ATP-dependent association with the ubiquitin-like SAMP1 and AAA-ATPase Cdc48a.

Pfam: the protein families database
Robert D. Finn
- 15 Apr 2005
TL;DR: The basic contents and availability of the Pfam database are described, and the new resource that describes domain–domain interactions at the molecular level is called iPfam, a protein families database that contains information on domain– domain interactions.
