Effects of Low Temperature on the Amino Acid Composition of Wheat Grains

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
Global warming can have detrimental effects on crop production formation, but the effect of low-temperature stress on crop quality should not be ignored.

Directed enzyme evolution: climbing fitness peaks one amino acid at a time [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Directed evolution can generate a remarkable range of new enzyme properties. Alternate substrate specificities and reaction selectivities are readily accessible in enzymes from families that are naturally functionally diverse.

Reliable prediction of protein thermostability change upon double mutation from amino acid sequence [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2009
Abstract Summary: The accurate prediction of protein stability change upon mutation is one of the important issues for protein design. In this work, we have focused on the stability change of double mutations and systematically analyzed the wild-type and mutant residues, patterns in amino acid sequence and locations of mutants.

Engineering double-stranded RNA binding activity into the Drosha double-stranded RNA binding domain results in a loss of microRNA processing function.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Canonical processing of miRNA begins in the nucleus with the Microprocessor complex, which is minimally composed of the RNase III enzyme Drosha and two copies of its cofactor protein DGCR8.

Probing RNA recognition by human ADAR2 using a high-throughput mutagenesis method. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Adenosine deamination is one of the most prevalent post-transcriptional modifications in mRNA. In humans, ADAR1 and ADAR2 catalyze this modification and their malfunction correlates with disease. Recently our laboratory reported crystal structures of the

Highly selective synthesis of d-amino acids via stereoinversion of corresponding counterpart by an in vivo cascade cell factory

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2021
Background d-Amino acids are increasingly used as building blocks to produce pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. However, establishing a universal biocatalyst for the general synthesis of d-amino acids from cheap and readily available precursors with few

Evolutionary Covariant Positions within Calmodulin EF-hand Sequences Promote Ligand Binding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Intracellular calcium signaling is an essential regulatory mechanism through calcium-mediated signal transduction pathways involved in many cell processes, such as exocytosis, motility, apoptosis, excitability, transcription, and muscle contraction.
