An Autoinducer Analogue Reveals an Alternative Mode of Ligand Binding for the LasR Quorum-Sensing Receptor

ACS CHEMICAL BIOLOGY, 14(3), 378–389.

By: J. Paczkowski *, A. McCready *, J. Cong*, Z. Li n, P. Jeffrey *, C. Smith *, B. Henke, F. Hughson *, B. Bassler *

MeSH headings : 4-Butyrolactone / analogs & derivatives; 4-Butyrolactone / chemistry; 4-Butyrolactone / metabolism; Amino Acids / chemistry; Bacterial Proteins / metabolism; Escherichia coli / drug effects; Ligands; Molecular Structure; Mutation; Protein Binding; Pseudomonas aeruginosa / drug effects; Quorum Sensing / drug effects; Signal Transduction; Structure-Activity Relationship; Trans-Activators / metabolism
TL;DR: The ability of LasR to bind ligands in different conformations, and in so doing, alter their potency as agonists, could explain the difficulties that have been encountered in the development of competitive LasR inhibitors. (via Semantic Scholar)

Differential CLE peptide perception by plant receptors implicated from structural and functional analyses of TDIF-TDR interactions

PLOS ONE, 12(4).

By: Z. Li n, S. Chakraborty n & G. Xu n

MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Arabidopsis Proteins / chemistry; Arabidopsis Proteins / metabolism; Binding Sites; Molecular Structure; Protein Binding; Protein Kinases / metabolism; Sequence Homology, Amino Acid
TL;DR: These studies will open different unknown avenues of TDR-TDIF signaling pathways that will enhance knowledge in this field highlighting the receptor ligand interaction, receptor activation, signaling network, modes of action and will serve as a structure function relationship model between the ligand and the receptor for various similar leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinases (LRR-RLKs).
