Formation of Enzyme-Enzyme Heteroconjugates

Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1984
Enzyme-enzyme heteroconjugates of phosphoglyceromutase, enolase and pyruvate kinase, which sequentially act to produce ATP in the glycolytic pathway, were constructed with a bifunctional reagent, N-succinimidyl 3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionate. The conjugates of phospho-glyceromutase-enolase, enolase-pyruvate kinase and phosphoglyceromutase-enolase ...

Enzymes as chaperones and chaperones as enzymes

FEBS Letters, 1998
Chaperones and foldases are two groups of accessory proteins which assist maturation of nascent peptides into functional proteins in cells. Protein disulfide isomerase, a foldase, and ATP‐dependent proteases, responsible for degradation of misfolded proteins in cells, both have intrinsic chaperone activities.

Clinical Utility of SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Titer Multiplied by Binding Avidity of Receptor-Binding Domain (RBD) in Monitoring Protective Immunity and Clinical Severity

Viruses, 2023
Conventional serum antibody titer, which expresses antibody level, does not provide antigen binding avidity of the variable region of the antibody, which is essential for the defense response to infection.
