Heliflex Chirasil‐Val, a modified form of the original Chirasil‐Val phase coated on fused silica capillary, has been investigated with regard to its resolution efficiency and the separation profile for various enantiomeric derivatives of amino acid. The best results could be obtained with TFA‐Et ...
A basic amino acid in the cytoplasmic domain of Alzheimer's beta-amyloid precursor protein (APP) is essential for cleavage of APP at the alpha-site. In Alzheimer's disease (AD), the beta-amyloid peptide (Abeta) is thought to be produced as a result of the aberrant metabolism of beta-am...
As the prodomain contains an N-linked glycosylation site (Supplementary Fig. S1), we performed enzy- matic removal of the N-linked glycosylation, which resulted in migration of the prodomain at 12.3 kDa, consistent with the predicted molecular weight by its amino-acid sequence (Fig. 1c). ...
These cells form close contacts with P2X2-LIR nerve processes. The taste cell shown in the inset for Figure 3 contains electron-dense patches of heterochromatin in the nucleus, which is a distinguishing feature of Type III cells. Regular mitochondria are often found in abundance within the P2X...
This results in a truncated exon 19 with a predicted deletion of six amino acids (r.3700_3717del; p.Ile1234_Arg1239del) in CFTR. mRNA, messenger RNA. conformational defects in the full-length CFTR protein. As shown in Supplementary Figure S1 online, residues 1234– 1239 are modeled to ...
The amino acid sequences of these peptides inserted within the bilayer were not always the same as those of intact bR, causing disposition of the transmembrane α-helical segment from that of intact bR. Finally, we confirmed that the 13C NMR peak positions of the random coil form a...
The amino acid sequence of human alpha-CGRP(8-37) is the same as human alpha-CGRP from positions 8 to 37. Other structural features include an amidated C-terminus. The solution structure of CGRP(8-37) has been defined by CDManning (1989),Hubbard et al (1991),Matsuura and Manning (1993...
A more preferred form of this embodiment relates to a recombinant Koi herpesvirus according to the invention which is deficient in at least one additional gene which contributes to virulence wherein said gene is selected from the group consisting of thymidine kinase gene; ORF12: putative tumor necr...
