Comparative analysis of coiled-coil prediction methods. (2006, methodology): “…matrix we used proteins that we had identiWed as coiled coils by visual inspection and SOCKET analysis in preparation for a recent review article (Lupas and Gruber, 2005) (note that we did not use this set to build the reference database of coiled coils for this study since it is biased by our…”
Structure of a bacterial multidrug ABC transporter (2006, background): “Small residues are known to favor knobs-to-knobs packing (Gernert et al., 1995; Lupas and Gruber, 2005), and, indeed, increasing the side-chain size of this residue to valine causes a biased phenotype in two histidine kinases, EnvZ (Tokishita et al., 1992) and NarX (Appleman and Stewart, 2003),…”
2018). CCBuilder 2.0: Powerful and accessible coiled-coil modeling (2017, background): “This ubiquitous fold consists of two or more a helices that wrap around each other to form a ropelike, superhelical structure.(21,22) Classical coiled-coil helices are amphipathic with a hydrophobic stripe along their length.”
