Chemical modification of the lectin of the marine coral Gerardia savaglia by marine quinone avarone [PDF]

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2007
The quinone avarone, isolated from the marine sponge Dysidea avara, possesses the ability to chemically modify proteins. In this work, modification of lectin isolated from the coral Gerardia savaglia by avarone was examined.

Comparison of stability and thermophysical properties of CNT–GNP hybrid nanofluids using different surface modification techniques

Cogent Engineering
This study examines how non-covalent and covalent surface modification methods affect the stability and thermo-physical characteristics of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene platelets (GNP) when distributed in solar thermal fluids.

Modelling covalent modification of cysteine residues in proteins

, 2020
Cysteine is a unique amino acid because of the chemical reactivity of its thiol (–SH) side chain. For that reason, cysteine serves several essential roles in biochemistry, and its reactivity is critical for the catalytic activity of several biological ...

Graphene oxide grafted with polydimethylsiloxane modified polyurethane

Nano Select, 2021
In order to improve the dispersion of graphene oxide (GO) in polymers, we synthesized polyurethane (PU) chains with long polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) chains as the “soft segment” and hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) as the “hard segment”, then the PU ...

Methodology of stable peptide based on propargylated sulfonium

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2023
Peptides can be used as effective molecular tool for covalent modification of proteins and play important roles in ligand directed covalent modification. Tyr-selective protein modifications exert a profound impact on protein functionality.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Hydrogenated Germanene Nanosheets as an Antioxidative Defense Agent for Acute Kidney Injury Treatment

Advanced Science, 2022
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a sudden kidney dysfunction caused by aberrant reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism that results in high clinical mortality. The rapid development of ROS scavengers provides new opportunities for AKI treatment.
