Changes in amino acid composition of still Chenin blanc wine during ageing on lees

open access: yesOENO One
Amino acids are known to affect the aromatic profile of wines, mainly because amino acids contribute to yeast nutrition during winemaking. While the latter has often been addressed in research, studies are lacking regarding the effect of amino acids ...

Exploiting amino acid composition for predicting protein-protein interactions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Computational prediction of protein interactions typically use protein domains as classifier features because they capture conserved information of interaction surfaces.

Effect of oxygen tension on the amino acid utilisation of human embryonic stem cells

open access: yes, 2014
Background/aims: human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are a potential source of cells for treatment of many degenerative diseases, but in culture have a propensity to spontaneously differentiate, possibly due to suboptimal conditions. Culture at low oxygen

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 ...

Amino acid usage is asymmetrically biased in AT- and GC-rich microbial genomes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
INTRODUCTION: Genomic base composition ranges from less than 25% AT to more than 85% AT in prokaryotes. Since only a small fraction of prokaryotic genomes is not protein coding even a minor change in genomic base composition will induce profound protein ...

AMINO ACID DIGESTIBILITIES OF PALM KERNEL MEAL IN POULTRY [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Palm kernel meal (PKM) is produced in large quantities in many parts of the world. Problems associated with PKM are due to their high fibre content, imbalanced amino acid ratios, the possibility of Maillard products and their own physical ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

In Vivo Incorporation of Multiple Unnatural Amino Acids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Unnatural amino acid (UAA) incorporation is an invaluable technique that is seeing increased use. THG73 is an amber suppressor tRNA used to incorporate > 100 residues at the UAG, amber stop codon, in Xenopus oocytes.

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.

A nine-country study of the protein content and amino acid composition of mature human milk

open access: yesFood & Nutrition Research, 2016
Background: Numerous studies have evaluated protein and amino acid levels in human milk. However, research in this area has been limited by small sample sizes and study populations with little ethnic or racial diversity.
