Characterisation of geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase from the sandfly Lutzomyia longipalpis (2023)
Journal Article
Ducker, C., French, S., Pathak, M., Taylor, H., Sainter, A., Askem, W., …Oldham, N. J. (2023). Characterisation of geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase from the sandfly Lutzomyia longipalpis. Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 161, Article 104001. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ibmb.2023.104001

Leishmaniasis is a debilitating and often fatal neglected tropical disease. Males from sub-populations of the Leishmania-harbouring sandfly, Lutzomyia longipalpis, produce the diterpene sex and aggregation pheromone, sobralene, for which geranylgeran...

Structures of factor XI and prekallikrein bound to domain 6 of high–molecular weight kininogen reveal alternate domain 6 conformations and exosites (2023)
Journal Article
Li, C., Barroeta, A. B., Wong, S. S., Kim, H. J., Pathak, M., Dreveny, I., …Emsley, J. (2023). Structures of factor XI and prekallikrein bound to domain 6 of high–molecular weight kininogen reveal alternate domain 6 conformations and exosites. Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jtha.2023.03.042

Background: High–molecular weight kininogen (HK) circulates in plasma as a complex with zymogen prekallikrein (PK). HK is both a substrate and a cofactor for activated plasma kallikrein, and the principal exosite interactions occur between PK N-termi...

Protein-metabolite interactomics of carbohydrate metabolism reveal regulation of lactate dehydrogenase (2023)
Journal Article
Hicks, K. G., Cluntun, A. A., Schubert, H. L., Hackett, S. R., Berg, J. A., Leonard, P. G., …Rutter, J. (2023). Protein-metabolite interactomics of carbohydrate metabolism reveal regulation of lactate dehydrogenase. Science, 379(6636), 996-1003. https://doi.org/10.1126/science.abm3452

Metabolic networks are interconnected and influence diverse cellular processes. The protein-metabolite interactions that mediate these networks are frequently low affinity and challenging to systematically discover. We developed mass spectrometry int...
