Oligomeric state of Tricorn protein in solution
Tricorn protease is a major component in the cleavage of oligopeptides produced by the proteasome. Tricorn appeared to be a multifaceted system in solution. The estimated molecular mass of the particles (380 kDa) was significantly lower than the theoretical value of 720 kDa tricorn hexamer suggesting partial tricorn hexamer, suggesting partial dissociation of the tricorn hexamers in solution. SAXS data were fitted by a linear combination of the scattering from tricorn monomers (53%), dimers (14%) and hexamers (33%) using OLIGOMER hexamers (33%) using OLIGOMER.

Solution structure of human Pex5/Pex14/PTS1
protein complexes obtained by SAXS protein complexes obtained by SAXS
The Pex5p import receptor recognizes peroxisomal matrix DAMMIN and BUNCH models of Pex5p g p proteins with C-terminal peroxisomal targeting signal (PTS). After docking to protein complexes on the membrane these proteins are translocated across the membrane. The interaction of the cargo- loaded Pex5p receptor and the loaded Pex5p receptor and the peroxisomal membrane protein Pex14p is the essential primary docking step. The free full length human Pex5p is monomeric in solution, with an elongated, partially unfolded N-terminal domain. Shiozawa, K., Konarev, P.V., Neufeld, C., Wilmanns, M., Svergun, D.I.
