    • Binding Specificity of ASHH2 CW Domain Toward H3K4me1 Ligand Is Coupled to Its Structural Stability Through Its α1-Helix 

      Bril'kov, Maxim; Dobrovolska, Olena; Ødegård-Fougner, Øyvind; Turcu, Diana Cornelia; Strømland, Øyvind; Underhaug, Jarl; Aasland, Rein; Halskau, Øyvind (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-04-13)
      The CW domain binds to histone tail modifications found in different protein families involved in epigenetic regulation and chromatin remodeling. CW domains recognize the methylation state of the fourth lysine on histone 3 and could, therefore, be viewed as a reader of epigenetic information. The specificity toward different methylation states such as me1, me2, or me3 depends on the particular ...

    • Goldilocks Dilemma: LPS Works Both as the Initial Target and a Barrier for the Antimicrobial Action of Cationic AMPs on E. coli 

      Jakubec, Martin; Rylandsholm, Fredrik G.; Rainsford, Philip; Silk, Mitchell; Bril'kov, Maxim; Kristoffersen, Tone; Juskewitz, Eric; Ericson, Johanna U; Svendsen, John Sigurd Mjøen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2023-07-20)
      Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are generally membrane-active compounds that physically disrupt bacterial membranes. Despite extensive research, the precise mode of action of AMPs is still a topic of great debate. This work demonstrates that the initial interaction between the Gram-negative E. coli and AMPs is driven by lipopolysaccharides (LPS) that act as kinetic barriers for the binding of AMPs to ...
