BMC Structural Biology 2008, 8:43
A new method which uses information theory to map information exchange on protein domain structures shows how binding may trigger conformational changes and specifically how signal transduction in Fyn tyrosine kinase resembles ‘noisy channel’ communication.

BMC Structural Biology 2008, 8:42
The first crystal structure of a eukaryotic guanylate cyclase - from the green alga, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii - confirms the expected close structural similarity with adenylate cyclases and provides clues as to how activation of the enzyme could occur.

BMC Structural Biology 2008, 8:39
Systematically classifying pi-turns in protein structures by measuring the presence of hydrogen bonds, the distance between terminal Calpha atoms and backbone torsion angles indicates that at least 20% occur independent of the Schellman motif.

Now accepting submissions
 Chemistry Central has launched Chemistry Central Journal, a broad ranging open access chemistry journal divided into 55 subject specific sections. The Editors invite you to submit your next manuscript using the online submission system.
“I think open access journals are a great idea and am delighted to join you in this venture as a member of the Editorial Advisory Board”
Robert F. Curl (Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1996), Kenneth S. Pitzer-Schlumberger Professor of Natural Sciences Emeritus, Rice University, Texas
Journals
Chemistry Central is planning to launch further chemistry-specific journals in the near future. Our journal management system incorporates online tools for manuscript submission, peer review and editorial decision making. We make this technology available without charge to suitably qualified groups of researchers that wish to operate their own open access online journals.
