Na+/Ca2+ exchangers (NCX) are membrane proteins that use the electrochemical gradient of Na+ to remove Ca2+ from the cytosol. They are essential for the maintenance of the intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis in various cell types, especially in excitable cells. CALX, the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger from Drosophila melanogaster, is found in sensory neuronal cells. It displays a unique regulatory behavio…
Bacterial macromolecular protein secretion systems are large (multi-mega Dalton) multiprotein complexes that transport effector proteins through bacterial membranes to the extracellular milieu or directly into the cytoplasm of other cells. These systems also mediate the horizontal transfer of genetic material (conjugation) between bacterial cells and specialized homologous forms of these …
This proposal takes advantage of the visit of Dr. Adrien Favier to Rio de Janeiro in the occasion of the "4th French-Brazilian Symposium on Biosciences", to bring him to visit the University of São Paulo.Adrien is a CNRS research engineer associated with the NMR group at the Institut de Biologie Structurale (IBS), in Grenoble. Adrien has a PhD in physics, and postdoctoral training in prot…
The aim of this proposal is to study structural and mechanistic aspects of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) by solution NMR spectroscopy. The NCX is one of the main mechanisms for the extrusion of intracellular Ca2+ in cardiac cells. Besides transporting Na+ and Ca2+, the NCX is regulated by these ions. The NCX is a large protein (950 amino acids), consisted of transmembrane and cytosolic dom…
We propose to organize a school on Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) in Structural Biology at the Institute of Chemistry of the University of São Paulo. The school will be divided in three sections. The first two correspond to introductory NMR courses that will follow the scheme usually adopted by the Brazilian NMR Users Association (AUREMN). In these sections, Brazilian scientists will gi…

Bacteria use a variety of secretion systems to translocate macromolecules across the bacterial cell envelope. The Type IV Secretion System (T4SS) of the phytopathogen Xanthomonas citri is responsible for the secretion of toxins that kill other Gram-negative bacteria. The T4SS are very large molecular assemblies formed by two subcomplexes, the core complex (~ 1 MDa) and the inner membrane …
