The ScCTL-1 gene, consisting of four C-type carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs) with an N-terminal signal peptide and a C-terminal transmembrane region. The gene is widely expressed in almost all tissues, with the highest expression in the hepatopancreas. To explore the functional ...
CD, FTIR, XRD, DLS and MS studies revealed that the MCH peptides oriented in polyproline-II conformation and coiled to form a mimic-helix with a packing distance of 0.885 nm. Multiple helices self-assembled into a quasi-fibrillar network with a diameter of 931 nm. The MCH was suspended ...
