Alternative splicing and protein function [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2005 Abstract Background Alternative splicing is a major mechanism of generating protein diversity in higher eukaryotes. Although at least half, and probably more, of mammalian genes are alternatively spliced, it was not clear, whether the frequency of alternative splicing is the same in different functional categories.

Positional proteomics reveals differences in N-terminal proteoform stability [PDF]
, 2016 To understand the impact of alternative translation initiation on a proteome, we performed a proteome-wide study on protein turnover using positional proteomics and ribosome profiling to distinguish between N-terminal proteoforms of individual genes.

Consumer Acceptance of Plant-Based Meat Substitutes: A Narrative Review
Foods, 2022 The great environmental impact of increasing animal product consumption requires the willingness to reduce or to substitute meat consumption. A possible substitute product, plant-based meat substitute, is made from plants and offers a sensory experience ...

Human Tra2 proteins jointly control a CHEK1 splicing switch among alternative and constitutive target exons [PDF]
, 2014 Alternative splicing—the production of multiple messenger RNA isoforms from a single gene—is regulated in part by RNA binding proteins. While the RBPs transformer2 alpha (Tra2α) and Tra2β have both been implicated in the regulation of alternative ...

An Alternative Approach to Protein Folding [PDF]
BioMed Research International, 2013 A diffusion theory-based, all-physicalab initioprotein folding simulation is described and applied. The model is based upon the drift and diffusion of protein substructures relative to one another in the multiple energy fields present. Without templates or statistical inputs, the simulations were run at physiologic and ambient temperatures (including ...

Toward an Alternative Intrinsic Probe for Spectroscopic Characterization of a Protein [PDF]
, 2010 The intrinsic fluorescent amino acid tryptophan is the unanimous choice for the spectroscopic investigation of proteins. However, several complicacies in the interpretation of tryptophan fluorescence in a protein are inevitable and an alternative ...

CABS-flex predictions of protein flexibility compared with NMR ensembles [PDF]
, 2014 Motivation: Identification of flexible regions of protein structures is important for understanding of their biological functions. Recently, we have developed a fast approach for predicting protein structure fluctuations from a single protein model: the ...

Mealworm (Tenebrio molitor Larvae) as an Alternative Protein Source for Monogastric Animal: A Review
Animals, 2020 Edible insects have been used as an alternative protein source for food and animal feed, and the market size for edible insects has increased. Tenebrio molitor larvae, also known as mealworm and yellow mealworm, are considered a good protein source with ...
