Given the following peptide: Val-Met-Ser-Gly-Glu-Ser-Asp-His-Lys-Cys-Tyr-Leu a) What is the pI? b) What is the net charge at pH 7.0? c) What is the net charge at pH 4.0? What are three ways that a protein could be denatured? If you have the peptide Ala-Arg at pH=6, wh...
What do peptide bonds hold together? What is the tertiary structure of a protein? What types of bonds or chemical interactions allow a protein to maintain this structure? Proteins are composed of what building blocks? What is the structure of a protein that oc...
Again four peptides of Bax were significantly and specifically identified by LC-MS/MS (supplemental Table 3 and Fig. S4B), although the Bax protein could not be seen by silver staining (supplemental Fig. S4A). This indicates that the mass spectrometry was sensitive enough to detect reported ...
Gal-1 and Gal-2 have similar quaternary structures with their dimers being stabilized by hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions between β-strands F1 and S138,46. The Gal-7 dimer is different in that its dimer interface is formed by association of the F-faces of two CRDs, an ...
the binding site of MBCs and the precise mechanism by which those mutations affect fungicide efficacy have not been determined. The aim of this work was to clarify the mode of action and the mechanism of resistance to MBC fungicides inPodosphaera xanthii, the primary causal agent of cucurbit pow...
day 1 was 30.0 g/L. Albumin on day 1 was able to discriminate between 30-day survivors and non-survivors (area under the curve (AUC) 0.607; 0.535–0.680;p= 0.005). CS patients with albumin < 30.0 g/L were associated with an increased risk of 30-day all-cause mortality (63% vs. ...
A cross-over acute study conducted to evaluate the effect of bread made from the anthocyanin-rich rice cultivar “Riceberry” on the postprandial glycemic response, glucagon-like peptide-1, antioxidant status, and subjective ratings of appetite on 16 volunteers, suggest a reduced glycemic response ...
Nesfatin-1 is a new anorexigenic neuropeptide involved in the regulation of hunger/satiety, eating, and affective disorders. We aimed to investigate nesfatin-1 secretion in vitro, in murine adipose cells, and in human adipose fat samples, as well as to a
