An N-Substituted Polyurea Coating with High Affinity for Heparin

open access: yesASAIO Journal, 1993
A new N-substituted polyurea with tertiary amino groups in the polycarbamidic chain (NPUTA) has been synthesized. The polymer is soluble in C1-C4 alcohols, has high adhesion to polar molds, and has high H2O uptake (130-150%). The material can be coated on many biomaterials (polyurethanes, charcoal hemosorbents, cellulosic hemodialysis membranes), and ...

Rotation-k Affine-Power-Affine-like Multiple Substitution-Boxes for Secure Communication

open access: yesCoRR, 2016
Substitution boxes with thorough cryptographic strengths are essential for the development of strong encryption systems. They are the only portions capable of inducing nonlinearity in symmetric encryption systems. Bijective substitution boxes having both high nonlinearities and high algebraic complexities are the most desirable to thwart linear ...

Abstract Syntax: Substitution and Binders Invited Address [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We summarise Fiore et al's paper on variable substitution and binding, then axiomatise it. Generalising their use of the category F of finite sets to model untyped cartesian contexts, we let S be an arbitrary pseudo-monad on Cat and consider (S1)op: this

Probing the protein–nanoparticle interface: the role of aromatic substitution pattern on affinity [PDF]

open access: yesSupramolecular Chemistry, 2014
A new class of cationic gold nanoparticles (NPs) has been synthesised bearing benzyl moieties featuring –NO2 and –OMe groups to investigate the regioisomeric control of aromatic NP–protein recognition. In general, NPs bearing electron-withdrawing groups demonstrated higher binding affinities towards green fluorescent protein (GFP) than NPs bearing ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

About linear and affine equivalence of substitutions

open access: yesPrikladnaya diskretnaya matematika, 2013
Summary: The results of computer experiments with a software implementation of algorithms for determining the linear and affine equivalence of substitutions are presented. The detailed description of the algorithms is given. Experimental operation time of the algorithms is compared with the theoretical complexity of the problem.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.
