Kumar A, P S, Gulati S, Dutta S
J Vis Exp . 2021 Aug; (173). PMID: 34398142
In the past several years, technological and methodological advancements in single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) have paved a new avenue for the high-resolution structure determination of biological macromolecules. Despite the remarkable...

Malladi S, Patel U, Rajmani R, Singh R, Pandey S, Kumar S, et al.
ACS Infect Dis . 2021 Jul; 7(8):2546-2564. PMID: 34260218
The receptor binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2 is the primary target of neutralizing antibodies. We designed a trimeric, highly thermotolerant glycan engineered RBD by fusion to a heterologous, poorly immunogenic...

Pramanick I, Sengupta N, Mishra S, Pandey S, Girish N, Das A, et al.
Structure . 2021 May; 29(8):834-845.e5. PMID: 33932324
Spike (S) glycoprotein of SARS-CoV2 exists chiefly in two conformations, open and closed. Most previous structural studies on S protein have been conducted at pH 8.0, but knowledge of the...

Kumar A, Sengupta N, Dutta S
Nanomaterials (Basel) . 2021 Apr; 11(3). PMID: 33808009
In this manuscript, we report the application of graphene oxide (GO) in the preparation of cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) grids. We treated GO with water and...

Malladi S, Schreiber D, Pramanick I, Sridevi M, Goldenzweig A, Dutta S, et al.
Curr Res Struct Biol . 2021 Mar; 2:45-55. PMID: 33688632
Stabilization of the metastable envelope glycoprotein (Env) of HIV-1 is hypothesized to improve induction of broadly neutralizing antibodies. We improved the expression yield and stability of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein...

Malladi S, Singh R, Pandey S, Gayathri S, Kanjo K, Ahmed S, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2020 Nov; 296:100025. PMID: 33154165
Virtually all SARS-CoV-2 vaccines currently in clinical testing are stored in a refrigerated or frozen state prior to use. This is a major impediment to deployment in resource-poor settings. Furthermore,...

Mondal A, Verma P, Sengupta N, Dutta S, Pandit S, Chattopadhyay K
Mol Microbiol . 2020 Oct; 115(4):508-525. PMID: 33089544
β-barrel pore-forming toxins perforate cell membranes by forming oligomeric β-barrel pores. The most crucial step is the membrane-insertion of the pore-forming motifs that create the transmembrane β-barrel scaffold. Molecular mechanism...

Kundu N, Verma P, Kumar A, Dhar V, Dutta S, Chattopadhyay K
Biochemistry . 2019 Dec; 59(4):605-614. PMID: 31808340
Thermostable direct hemolysin (TDH) of is a membrane-damaging pore-forming toxin with potent cytolytic/cytotoxic activity. TDH exists as a tetramer consisting of protomers with a core β-sandwich domain, flanked by an...

Ghosh E, Dwivedi H, Baidya M, Srivastava A, Kumari P, Stepniewski T, et al.
Cell Rep . 2019 Sep; 28(13):3287-3299.e6. PMID: 31553900
Desensitization, signaling, and trafficking of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are critically regulated by multifunctional adaptor proteins, β-arrestins (βarrs). The two isoforms of βarrs (βarr1 and 2) share a high degree of...
