The chemistry and evolution of enzyme function: isomerases as a case study [PDF]
The study of the evolution of proteins has been traditionally undertaken from a sequence and structural point of view. However any attempt to understand how protein function changes during evolution benefits from consistent definitions of function and ...

Plant Cell Wall Proteins: A Large Body of Data, but What about Runaways? [PDF]
Plant cell wall proteomics has been a very dynamic field of research for about fifteen years. A full range of strategies has been proposed to increase the number of identified proteins and to characterize their post-translational modifications.

COMPARATIVE APPROACHES FOR PLANT GENOMES: UNRAVELING "INTRA" AND "INTER" SPECIES RELATIONSHIPS FROM PRELIMINARY GENE ANNOTATIONS [PDF]
Comparative genomics studies the differences and similarities between different species, to transfer biological information from model organisms to newly sequenced genomes, and to understand the evolutionary forces that drive changes in genomic features ...

Quantitative and evolutionary global analysis of enzyme reaction mechanisms [PDF]
The most widely used classification system describing enzyme-catalysed reactions is the Enzyme Commission (EC) number. Understanding enzyme function is important for both fundamental scientific and pharmaceutical reasons.

Function and redox state of mitochondrial localized cysteine-rich proteins important in the assembly of cytochrome \u3ci\u3ec\u3c/i\u3e oxidase [PDF]
The cytochrome c oxidase (CcO) complex of the mitochondrial respiratory chain exists within the mitochondrial inner membrane (IM). The biogenesis of the complex is a multi-faceted process requiring multiple assembly factors that function on both faces of

The death is red: analysis of the predicted secretome of Aspergillus welwitschiae, with emphasis in pathogenicity and carbohydrate metabolism [PDF]
Em 2018, Aspergillus welwitschiae foi descrito como causador da podridão vermelha do sisal (Agave sisalana), ao invés de Aspergillus niger, do qual era uma espécie críptica.

Computer-Assisted Design for Paracetamol Masking Bitter Taste Prodrugs [PDF]
It is believed that the bitter taste of paracetamol, a pain killer drug, is due to its hydroxyl group. Hence, it is expected that blocking the hydroxy group with a suitable linker could inhibit the interaction of paracetamol with its bitter taste ...
