Coiled‐coils: The long and short of it
L Truebestein, TA Leonard - Bioessays, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
Coiled‐coils are found in proteins throughout all three kingdoms of life. Coiled‐coil domains
of some proteins are almost invariant in sequence and length, betraying a structural and …

Coiled coils–a model system for the 21st century
α-Helical coiled coils were described more than 60 years ago as simple, repetitive structures
mediating oligomerization and mechanical stability. Over the past 20 years, however, they …

The structure and topology of α-helical coiled coils
Abstract α-Helical coiled coils constitute one of the most diverse folds yet described. They
range in length over two orders of magnitude; they form rods, segmented ropes, barrels …

Functional and structural roles of coiled coils
MD Hartmann - Fibrous Proteins: Structures and Mechanisms, 2017 - Springer
Coiled coils appear in countless structural contexts, as appendages to small proteins, as
parts of multi-domain proteins, and as building blocks of filaments. Although their structure is …

Characterization of MCU-binding proteins MCUR1 and CCDC90B—representatives of a protein family conserved in prokaryotes and eukaryotic organelles
Membrane-bound coiled-coil proteins are important mediators of signaling, fusion, and
scaffolding. Here, we delineate a heterogeneous group of trimeric membrane-anchored …
