Protein-Based Films and Coatings
2017Environmental, social, and economic concerns related to the availability of petroleum-derived resources and plastic waste management have revived interest in renewable and biodegradable polymers. The durability of conventional plastics, which can be considered as an advantage for some applications, is actually leading to waste disposal problems since ...

Milk Proteins for Edible Films and Coatings
Critical Reviews in Food Science and Nutrition, 2004Due to the recent increase in ecological consciousness, research has turned toward finding edible materials. Viable edible films and coatings have been produced using milk proteins. These films and coatings may retard moisture loss, are good oxygen barriers, show good tensile strength and moderate elongation, are flexible, and generally have no flavor ...

Formation of protein-coated iron minerals
Dalton Transactions, 2005The ability of iron to cycle between Fe(2+) and Fe(3+) forms has led to the evolution, in different forms, of several iron-containing protein cofactors that are essential for a wide variety of cellular processes, to the extent that virtually all cells require iron for survival and prosperity.

Coat proteins: shaping membrane transport
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2003Coat proteins allow the selective transfer of macromolecules from one membrane-enclosed compartment to another by concentrating macromolecules into specialized membrane patches and then deforming these patches into small coated vesicles. Recent findings indicate that coat proteins might also participate in the differentiation of membrane domains within

History of Coat Protein-Mediated Protection
1998A decade of research has proven that plants can be genetically engineered to resist virus infection through expression of viral CP genes, as well as other viral genes and sequences. Additional opportunities for development of resistant plants will require research focused on mechanisms of protection, improvements in expression vector design, and ...

Protein-containing hydrophobic coatings and films
Biomaterials, 2002The incorporation of enzymes and other proteins into hydrophobic polymeric coatings and films has been investigated in this study with the goal of generating biologically active materials for biocatalysis, antifouling surfaces, and biorecognition. The protein-polymer composites are created using standard solution coating techniques with poly(methyl ...

Coat protein phylogeny and systematics of potyviruses
1992The feasibility of applying molecular phylogenetic methods of analysis to aligned coat-protein sequences and other molecular data derived from coat proteins or genomic sequences of members of the proposed taxonomic family of Potyviridae, is discussed.

Coat Proteins Regulating Membrane Traffic
1999This review focuses on the roles of coat proteins in regulating the membrane traffic of eukaryotic cells. Coat proteins are recruited to the donor organelle membrane from a cytosolic pool by specific small GTP-binding proteins and are required for the budding of coated vesicles.

Protein-based lms and coatings
2011Functional properties of proteins include the ability to form lms and coatings. Proteins are polymers with specic amino acid sequences and molecular structure. Depending on the sequential order of the amino acids, the protein will assume different structures along the polymer chain which will determine the secondary, tertiary, and quaternary ...
