Date hub proteins are a type of proteins that show multispecificity in a time-dependent manner. To understand dynamic aspects of such multispecificity we studied Ubiquitin as a typical example of a date hub protein. Here we analyzed 9 biologically relevant Ubiquitin-protein (ligand) heterodimer structures by using normal mode analysis based on an elastic network model. Our result showed that the self-coupled motion of Ubiquitin in the complex, rather than its ligand-coupled motion, is similar to ...[more]
