Energetic frustrations in protein folding at residue resolution: a simulation study of homologous immunoglobulin-like \b{eta}-sandwich proteins [PDF]
Nonnative residual interactions have attracted increasing attention in recent protein folding researches. Experimental and theoretical investigations had been set out to catch nonnative contacts that might dominate key events in protein folding. However, energetic frustrations caused by nonnative inter-residue interactions are not systematically ...

Characterisation of placental malaria in olive baboons (Papio anubis) infected with Plasmodium knowlesi H strain [PDF]
Pregnant women have increased susceptibility to malaria infection. In these women, malaria parasites are frequently found sequestered in the placental intervillous spaces, a condition referred to as placental malaria (PM). Placental malaria threatens the health of the mother and the child's life by causing still births and reduction in gestational age.

A wash-free, dip-type fiber optic plasmonic (DiP) assay for sub-zeptomole analyte detection [PDF]
This study demonstrates a rapid, wash-free dip-type fiber optic plasmonic sandwich (DiP) assay capable of zeptomole analyte detection and 6-orders of wide dynamic range. The DiP assay is realized on a compact U-bent fiber optic probe surface by dipping the antibody functionalized probe into a mixture of sample solution and AuNP labeled reagent.

Peptide strings clues to the genesis and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis: rebuilding self-protective immunity amid fungal ruins [PDF]
A recent application of the peptide strings concept has yielded novel perceptions on cell growth regulation, for instance that of oncoprotein metastasis. Here, this interdisciplinary approach at the boundary between physics and biology has been applied to gain a more profound insight into rheumatoid arthritis.

Evaluation of Serological Tests Using A60 Antigen for Diagnosis of Tuberculosis [PDF]
Identification of acid-fast bacilli (AFB) in sputum or tissue samples is among definite diagnostic methods of tuberculosis. However, this method of diagnosis is restricted by certain limitations. Serologic diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) has ...
