A script to highlight hydrophobicity and charge on protein surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The composition of protein surfaces determines both affinity and specificity of protein-protein interactions. Matching of hydrophobic contacts and charged groups on both sites of the interface are crucial to ensure specificity.

Comparison of C-reactive protein and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels in patients on hemodialysis

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2012
Chronic inflammation is highly prevalent in patients on hemodialysis (HD), as evidenced by increased levels of C-reactive protein (CRP). We compared CRP to high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) to determine whether it has any clinical implications
