Dimeric Sfh3 has structural changes in its binding pocket that are associated with a dimer-monomer state transformation induced by substrate binding

The dimeric structure of Sfh3 (Sec14 family homologue 3 in yeast) is reported for the first time and differs from the Sec14 proteins reported to date, all of which are monomeric.

The structure of the ARE-binding domains of Hu antigen R (HuR) undergoes conformational changes during RNA binding

The crystal structures of the N-terminal tandem RRM domains of HuR are reported in RNA-free and RNA-bound forms.

Structures of enzyme–intermediate complexes of yeast Nit2: insights into its catalytic mechanism and different substrate specificity compared with mammalian Nit2

Structures of yeast Nit2 in complex with α-ketoglutarate and with oxaloacetate revealed the molecular-recognition mechanism of the enzyme for the first time, while that of the C169S mutant of yeast Nit2 showed a new ligand located in the catalytic cavity.
