Pneumococcal vaccination responses in adults with subnormal IgG subclass concentrations
BMC Immunology, 2019 Background We sought to compare Pneumovax®23 responses in adults with subnormal IgG subclass concentrations. We studied adults with normal total IgG, frequent/severe respiratory infection, and subnormal IgG1, IgG3, or IgG1 + IgG3 before and after ...

Galactoside-Binding Site in LacY [PDF]
Biochemistry, 2014 Although an X-ray crystal structure of lactose permease (LacY) has been presented with bound galactopyranoside, neither the sugar nor the residues ligating the sugar can be identified with precision at ~3.5 Å. Therefore, additional evidence is important for identifying side chains likely to be involved in binding.

Computing the protein binding sites [PDF]
BMC Bioinformatics, 2011 Identifying the location of binding sites on proteins is of fundamental importance for a wide range of applications including molecular docking, de novo drug design, structure identification and comparison of functional sites. Structural genomic projects are beginning to produce protein structures with unknown functions.

Residues in the 1st Transmembrane-Spanning Helix Are Important for GABAAρ Receptor Function
Biomolecules, 2022 GABAAρ receptors are a subfamily of the GABAA receptor family of pentameric ligand-gated ion channels (pLGICs). Each subunit has a common structure, including a transmembrane domain of four α-helices (M1–M4).
