Electric eel acetylcholinesterase is a complex molecular structure in which a multisubunit headbearing the active sites of the enzyme is attached to an elongated tail. Recent evidence suggests that the tail is of a collagenous nature and that in situ acetylcholinesterase is associated with the collage...
Further characterization determined that this enzyme was capable of catalysing the deamination of L-aspartate, and it was named aspartase in 1929 (Cook and Woolf, 1928). Its isolation was successfully achieved from cell extracts of Pseudomonas fluorescens (Virtanen and Tarnanen, 1932), and was ...
CTGF is a 38-kDa protein with a four-nodule structure that is the second member of the CCN family and, also known as CCN2. Previous studies have shown that CTGF promotes the adhesion of human vascular endothelial cells, lung epithelial cells, and fibroblasts. CTGF adhesion is mediated by th...
The evaluation of the molecular structure of the polymer is therefore important. The most important structure parameters in low-density polyethylene are molecular weight distribution (MWD), degree of long-chain branching (LCB), and short-chain branching distribution (SCBD). Through chain transfer to...
Alignment of the amino acids sequence revealed that Cel9A has a gene structure totally different from the other known cellulose degraders. The most striking feature of this cloned protein is the absence of a cellulose-binding domain (CBD), which to date was believed to be imperative in ...
Structures of Arenaviral Nucleoproteins with Triphosphate dsRNA Reveal a Unique Mechanism of Immune Suppression * , Additionally, we provide for the first time a high-resolution crystal structure of an active exoribonuclease domain of Tacaribe arenavirus (TCRV) NP. ... X Jiang,Qinfeng Huang §,...
present in the floweringC. sativaplant7,8. Chief among these major phytochemical compounds are the psychoactive Δ9-tetrahydocannabinol (THC) and the non-psychoactive but medicinally relevant cannabidiol (CBD)9. THCs are a particular class of cannabinoids with terpenophenolic structure and make up...
Crystal structures of the major individual domains of mammalian TSPs have revealed that the N-terminal domain, which has a laminin-G-like structure, and the C-terminal domain, which has an L-type lectin structure, are related because both of these domain families belong to the concanavalin-...
Previously, we have reported that hookworms secrete cysteine proteinase activity that is capable of cleaving the cathepsin L-specific substrate Z-Phe-Arg-A... Ross,I.,Brinkworth,... - 《Biochimica Et Biophysica Acta Protein Structure & Molecular Enzymology》 被引量: 40发表: 1996年 Docking and ...
The CBD dimer interacts with only one NBD by straddling a conserved ‘hinge helix’ at the C-terminus of the NBD sub-domain via loops protruding from each CBD protomer. A. aeolicus WzmWzt is well suited for structure-function analyses; however, knowledge on the structure and capping of the...
