Jayakanthan S, Braiterman L, Hasan N, Unger V, Lutsenko S
J Biol Chem
. 2017 Aug;
292(46):18760-18774.
PMID: 28842499
ATP7B is a copper-transporting P-type ATPase (Cu-ATPase) with an essential role in human physiology. Mutations in ATP7B cause the potentially fatal Wilson disease, and changes in ATP7B expression are observed...

Opatowsky Y, Lax I, Tome F, Bleichert F, Unger V, Schlessinger J
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2014 Jan;
111(5):1772-7.
PMID: 24449920
Using electron microscopy and fitting of crystal structures, we present the 3D reconstruction of ligand-induced dimers of intact receptor tyrosine kinase, KIT. We observe that KIT protomers form close contacts...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2013 Dec;
110(51):20491-6.
PMID: 24297923
Efficient delivery of copper ions to specific intracellular targets requires copper chaperones that acquire metal cargo through unknown mechanisms. Here we demonstrate that the human and yeast copper chaperones (CCS)...

Atox1 contains positive residues that mediate membrane association and aid subsequent copper loading
Flores A, Unger V
J Membr Biol
. 2013 Sep;
246(12):903-13.
PMID: 24036897
Copper chaperones bind intracellular copper and ensure proper trafficking to downstream targets via protein-protein interactions. In contrast to the mechanisms of copper binding and transfer to downstream targets, the mechanisms...

Simunovic M, Mim C, Marlovits T, Resch G, Unger V, Voth G
Biophys J
. 2013 Aug;
105(3):711-9.
PMID: 23931319
Key cellular processes are frequently accompanied by protein-facilitated shape changes in the plasma membrane. N-BAR-domain protein modules generate curvature by means of complex interactions with the membrane surface. The way...

Cui H, Mim C, Vazquez F, Lyman E, Unger V, Voth G
Biophys J
. 2013 Feb;
104(2):404-11.
PMID: 23442862
Endophilin N-BAR (N-terminal helix and Bin/amphiphysin/Rvs) domain tubulates and vesiculates lipid membranes in vitro via its crescent-shaped dimer and four amphipathic helices that penetrate into membranes as wedges. Like F-BAR...

Vazquez F, Unger V, Voth G
Biophys J
. 2013 Feb;
104(2):396-403.
PMID: 23442861
Endophilin is a key protein involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Previous computational and experimental work suggested that the N-terminal helix is embedded into the membrane to induce curvature; however, the role...

Unger V
Methods Mol Biol
. 2012 Nov;
955:211-27.
PMID: 23132063
In the past, various formats have been used to present data fidelity of electron crystallographic data from images of two-dimensional crystals. While each scheme provides some information about the data,...

Mim C, Unger V
Trends Biochem Sci
. 2012 Oct;
37(12):526-33.
PMID: 23058040
Membranes are flexible barriers that surround the cell and its compartments. To execute vital functions such as locomotion or receptor turnover, cells need to control the shapes of their membranes....
