Structural effects of methionine oxidation on isolated subdomains of human fibrin D and αC regions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Oxidation of key methionine residues on fibrin leads to altered fibrin polymerization producing severely altered fibrin gel structure and function. This is important because fibrinogen and its modification by oxidative stress have been implicated as key ...

PLoS Pathogens, 2017 Plasmodium falciparum Erythrocyte Membrane Protein 1 (PfEMP1) and Knob-associated Histidine-rich Protein (KAHRP) are directly linked to malaria pathology. PfEMP1 and KAHRP cluster on protrusions (knobs) on the P.

Co-chaperone involvement in knob biogenesis implicates host-derived chaperones in malaria virulence.
PLoS Pathogens, 2021 The pathology associated with malaria infection is largely due to the ability of infected human RBCs to adhere to a number of receptors on endothelial cells within tissues and organs.

Histidine-rich domain of the knob protein of the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1986 Membranes of erythrocytes infected with the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum develop protrusions called knobs. These structures are essential for the survival of the parasite in the host, and their induction requires the synthesis of the knob protein by the parasite. We describe the isolation of a cDNA clone encoding the amino-terminal half

Implementation of a Random Variable Universefuzzy Controller in Medical Helmet
Journal of Harbin University of Science and Technology, 2023 The current adaptive fuzzy control methods was difficult to achieve good results in practical problems. Aiming at this problem , a fuzzy controller with a random variation domain was proposed. Firstly , a simple and accurate random scaling factor

Subtelomeric Chromatin in the Fission Yeast S. pombe
Microorganisms, 2021 Telomeres play important roles in safeguarding the genome. The specialized repressive chromatin that assembles at telomeres and subtelomeric domains is key to this protective role.

Derivation of a myeloid cell-binding adenovirus for gene therapy of inflammation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The gene therapy field is currently limited by the lack of vehicles that permit efficient gene delivery to specific cell or tissue subsets. Native viral vector tropisms offer a powerful platform for transgene delivery but remain nonspecific, requiring ...
