Physiol Rev 80: 1483–1521, 2000.—Cal- cineurin is a eukaryotic Ca2ϩ- and calmodulin-dependent serine/threonine protein phosphatase. It is a heterodimeric protein consisting of a catalytic subunit calcineurin A, which contains an active site dinuclear metal center, and a tightly associated, myristoylated, Ca2ϩ-binding subunit, calcineurin B. The primary sequence of both subunits and heterodimeric quaternary structure is highly conserved from yeast to mammals. As a serine/threonine protein phosphatase, calcineurin participates in a number of cellular processes and Ca2ϩ-dependent signal transduction pathways. Calcineurin is potently inhibited by immunosuppressant drugs, cyclosporin A and FK506, in the presence of their respective cytoplasmic immunophilin proteins, cyclophilin and FK506-binding protein. Many studies have used these immunosuppressant drugs and/or modern genetic techniques to disrupt calcineurin in model organisms such as yeast, filamentous fungi, plants, vertebrates, and mammals to explore its biological function. Recent advances regarding calcineurin structure include the determination of its three-dimensional structure. In addition, biochemical and spectroscopic studies are beginning to unravel aspects of the mechanism of phosphate ester hydrolysis including the importance of the dinuclear metal ion cofactor and metal ion redox chemistry, studies which may lead to new calcineurin inhibitors. This review provides a comprehensive examination of the biological roles of calcineurin and reviews aspects related to its structure and catalytic mechanism. I.

Laland Theory and empirical data from a variety of disciplines strongly imply that recent human history involves extensive gene-culture coevolution, much of it as a direct result of human agricultural practices. Here we draw on niche- construction theory (NCT) and gene-culture coevolutionary theory (GCT) to propose a broad theoretical framework (NCT-GCT) with which archaeologists and anthropologists can explore coevolutionary dynamics. Humans are enormously potent niche constructors, and understanding how niche construction regulates ecosystem dynamics is central to understanding the impact of human populations on their ecological and developmental environments.

    Kinetic, mechanistic, structural and spectroscopic investigations of Bimetallic Metallohydrolases Christopher Michael Selleck Bachelor of Science (Hons) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2017 School of Chemistry and Molecular Biology Abstract Binuclear Metallohydrolases (BMHs) are a vast family of enzymes that play crucial roles in numerous metabolic pathways. The overarching aim of this thesis is the investigation of the structure and mechanism of a series of related BMHs, with a range of physicochemical techniques, in order to provide essential insight into the development of specific inhibitors. Since an increasing number of BMHs have become targets for chemotherapeutic agents, such inhibitors may thus serve as suitable leads in drug development. The general biochemical properties of BMHs is discussed in Chapter 1. Particular focus is on antibiotic-degrading metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs), Zn2+-dependent enzymes that have emerged as a major threat to global health care due to their ability to inactivate most of the commonly used antibiotics. No clinically relevant inhibitors for these enzymes are currently available, exacerbating their negative impact on the treatment of infections. Also discussed are a range of phosphatases; while functionally distinct from MBLs, they employ a related mechanistic strategy to hydrolyse a broad range of phosphorylated substrates. Specifically, purple acid phosphatases (PAPs) are also a useful target for novel chemotherapeutics to treat osteoporosis, while organophosphate (OP) pesticide- degrading enzymes have gained attention as biocatalysts for application in environmental remediation. In Chapter 2 the trajectory and transition state of the PAP-catalysed reaction is investigated using a high-resolution crystal structure.
