Multiple Disulfide-Bonded States of Native Proteins: Estimate of Number Using Probabilities of Disulfide Bond Formation

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
The polypeptide backbone of proteins is held together by two main types of covalent bonds: the peptide bonds that link the amino acid residues and the disulfide bonds that link pairs of cysteine amino acids. Disulfide bonds form as a protein folds in the

Cystine nephrolithiasis.

open access: yesTranslational andrology and urology, 2014
Our understanding of the molecular basis of cystinuria has deepened as the result of the causative genes, SLC3A1 and SLC7A9, being identified. The proteins coded for by these genes form a heterodimer responsible for reabsorption of filtered cystine in the proximal tubule. Failure of this transport system to be targeted to the apical membrane, as in the

Chronic Sulfasalazine Treatment in Mice Induces System xc− - Independent Adverse Effects

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2021
Despite ample evidence for the therapeutic potential of inhibition of the cystine/glutamate antiporter system xc− in neurological disorders and in cancer, none of the proposed inhibitors is selective. In this context, a lot of research has been performed

Microwave‐Assisted Aqueous Synthesis of Gelatin‐Norbornene for Hydrogel Crosslinking and Bioprinting

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A microwave‐assisted reaction is utilized to synthesize gelatin‐norbornene (GelNB), achieving a high degree of norbornene functionalization while reducing the macromer's upper critical solution temperature. The resulting GelNB macromer has high solubility at room temperature, facilitating light‐based 3‐dimensional (3D) printing of thiol‐norbornene ...
