Syed M, Dishman A, Volkman B, Walker T
Protein Sci . 2025 Jan; 34(2):e70032. PMID: 39840812
The chemokine XC motif chemokine ligand 1 (XCL1) is an unusually specialized member of a conserved family of around 50 small, secreted proteins that are best known for their ability...

Pontejo S, Martinez S, Zhao A, Barnes K, de Anda J, Alimohamadi H, et al.
bioRxiv . 2024 Aug; PMID: 39091850
Classically, chemokines coordinate leukocyte trafficking during immune responses; however, many chemokines have also been reported to possess direct antibacterial activity in vitro. Yet, the bacterial killing mechanism of chemokines and...

Praetorius F, Leung P, Tessmer M, Broerman A, Demakis C, Dishman A, et al.
Science . 2023 Aug; 381(6659):754-760. PMID: 37590357
In nature, proteins that switch between two conformations in response to environmental stimuli structurally transduce biochemical information in a manner analogous to how transistors control information flow in computing devices....
4.
Dishman A, Volkman B
Trends Biochem Sci . 2023 Jun; 48(8):665-672. PMID: 37270322
Metamorphic proteins switch reversibly between multiple distinct, stable structures, often with different functions. It was previously hypothesized that metamorphic proteins arose as intermediates in the evolution of a new fold...

Dishman A, Volkman B
Curr Opin Struct Biol . 2022 May; 74:102380. PMID: 35561475
Metamorphic proteins are single amino acid sequences that reversibly interconvert between multiple, dramatically different native structures, often with distinct functions. Since the discovery of the first metamorphic proteins in the...

Dishman A, He J, Volkman B, Huppler A
Pathogens . 2021 Jul; 10(6). PMID: 34204234
species cause serious infections requiring prolonged and sometimes toxic therapy. Antimicrobial proteins, such as chemokines, hold great interest as potential additions to the small number of available antifungal drugs. Metamorphic...

Dishman A, Tyler R, Fox J, Kleist A, Prehoda K, Babu M, et al.
Science . 2021 Jan; 371(6524):86-90. PMID: 33384377
Metamorphic proteins switch between different folds, defying the protein folding paradigm. It is unclear how fold switching arises during evolution. With ancestral reconstruction and nuclear magnetic resonance, we studied the...

Dishman A, Peterson F, Volkman B
Biopolymers . 2020 Sep; 112(10):e23402. PMID: 32986858
The metamorphic protein XCL1 switches between two distinct native structures with different functions in the human immune system. This structural interconversion requires complete rearrangement of all hydrogen bonding networks, yet...

Dishman A, Lee M, de Anda J, Lee E, He J, Huppler A, et al.
ACS Infect Dis . 2020 Apr; 6(5):1204-1213. PMID: 32243126
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a class of molecules which generally kill pathogens via preferential cell membrane disruption. Chemokines are a family of signaling proteins that direct immune cell migration and...

Fox J, Thomas M, Dishman A, Larsen O, Nakayama T, Yoshie O, et al.
Sci Signal . 2019 Sep; 12(597). PMID: 31481523
Chemokines interact with their G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) through a two-step, two-site mechanism and, through this interaction, mediate various homeostatic and immune response mechanisms. Upon initial recognition of the chemokine...
