An early, novel arginine methylation of KCa3.1 attenuates subsequent T cell exhaustion.

The paper shows that early arginine methylation of KCa3.1 limits Ca2+-mediated NFAT1 activation, preventing T cell exhaustion during activation.

An Investigation of the YidC-Mediated Membrane Insertion of Pf3 Coat Protein Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations

This study uses molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the YidC-mediated insertion of Pf3 coat protein, revealing the role of YidC's hydrophilic groove in protein transport.

Importance of AB domain in parvalbumins' calcium binding affinity

This study investigates how the AB domain of parvalbumins affects calcium and magnesium binding affinity using molecular dynamics simulations and finds that the AB domain enhances binding efficiency through structural reorganization and helicity changes.

Modulation of P2X4 pore closure by magnesium,potassium, and ATP

This study uses molecular dynamics simulations to show that Mg2+ and K+ ions bound to specific sites on P2X4 receptors stabilize or destabilize the open state of the channel depending on ATP binding.
