Protein is something that we hear about a lot when it comes to dieting and exercising. However, while we all know that it’s important, not many of us understand why we should be eating it. How is it going to benefit us? And why should we increase our intake? There are a lot of ...
Why it is so important to study? It is considered as the linear relationship between the change in enthalpy as well as in entropy. Therefore, the favourable changes in enthalpy are compensated by the reverse (unfavourable) changes in entropy or vice versa. This shows variation in the binding ...
This finding is particularly important given the high charge asymmetry in the lipopolysaccharide-containing outer membrane (OM). The results provide new insights into how lipid organization modulates OMP folding and stability in vitro, have implications for understanding OMP folding in vivo, and suggest...
The understanding of protein aggregation is a central issue in different fields of protein science, from the heterologous protein production in biotechnology to amyloid aggregation in several neurodegenerative and systemic diseases. To this goal, it became more and more evident the crucial relevance of ...

Healthy adults should get about 45 to 56 grams of protein a day, and most people get enough from food. But if you exercise regularly, or otherwise live an active lifestyle, you may need more, which is why some people drink protein shakes. ...
OBP is a small, water-soluble protein expressed in the insect's tissues, and it is considered a transporter of small hydrophobic molecules that binds to a specific olfactory receptor [104]. These odorant molecules might be important for prey selection. Interestingly, a heme-binding protein of R...
It is important that the x in -rwxr-xr-x is present for each script. If that is not the case, run `chmod a+x *.pl *.py` in order to change file attributes. You may find it helpful to add the directory in which BRAKER perl scripts reside to your $PATH environment variable. Fo...
WHY WE BORROWS BACTERIAL TOXIN? Scientists found that, instead of resembling other proteins that perform similar functions, its structure most closely matches that of a bacterial toxin, making it the only known human protein with such a structure. ...
It is estimated that two-thirds of all proteins in higher organisms are composed of multiple domains, many of them containing discontinuous folds. However, to date, most in vitro protein folding studies have focused on small, single-domain proteins. As a
