Autocatalytic Folding of the Folding Catalyst FKBP12 [PDF]
Prolyl isomerases are folding enzymes and thus have the potential to catalyze their own folding. We show here that the folding of cytosolic FKBP12 (FK 506 binding protein) is an autocatalytic process both for the mature protein and for a fusion protein with an amino-terminal extension of 16 residues.

Dynamics in unfolded polypeptide chains as model for elementary steps in protein folding [PDF]
This thesis deals with the dynamics of unfolded polypeptide chains as model for the earliest steps in protein folding. Starting from an ensemble of unfolded conformations a folding polypeptide chain has to form specific backbone and side-chain ...

ABSTRACT Background Osteosarcoma (OS) and Ewing sarcoma (EWS) are the most common primary bone cancers in children, but acute thrombosis is poorly characterized in this population. Our study evaluated the rates of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and associated risk factors in pediatric patients with bone sarcomas treated over a 10‐year period encompassing

Seizures are a druggable mechanistic link between TBI and subsequent tauopathy
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a prominent risk factor for dementias including tauopathies like chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE). The mechanisms that promote prion-like spreading of Tau aggregates after TBI are not fully understood, in part due to

ABSTRACT Background Central nervous system (CNS) involvement in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is assessed by cell counting and cytomorphology from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and is used for treatment stratification worldwide. The ratio of “CNS2” patients in clinical trials ranges from 3% to 40%, with unclear prognostic significance ...

Tryptophan-Tryptophan energy migration as a tool to follow apoflavodoxin folding
Submolecular details of Azotobacter vinelandii apoflavodoxin (apoFD) (un)folding are revealed by time-resolved fluorescence anisotropy using wild-type protein and variants lacking one or two of apoFD's three tryptophans.

Relative domain folding and stability of a membrane transport protein [PDF]
There is a limited understanding of the folding of multidomain membrane proteins. Lactose permease (LacY) of Escherichia coli is an archetypal member of the major facilitator superfamily of membrane transport proteins, which contain two domains of six ...

Evidence suggests that increased level/aggregation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptide, together with enhanced phosphorylation/aggregation of tau protein, play a critical role in the development of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), the leading cause of dementia in the ...

Tectonic structure of Kerch-Taman fold zone of Azov-Kuban trough
The nrotectonic structure of the Kerch-Taman folded zone, the southern deformed part of the Azov-Kuban piedmont trough, has a number of structural features and a history of deformation development.

Abstract Many protein classification systems capture homologous relationships by grouping domains into families and superfamilies on the basis of sequence similarity. Superfamilies with similar 3D structures are further grouped into folds.
