Dimerization of lipocalin allergens [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2015 AbstractLipocalins are one of the most important groups of inhalant animal allergens. The analysis of structural features of these proteins is important to get insights into their allergenicity. We have determined two different dimeric crystal structures for bovine dander lipocalin Bos d 2, which was earlier described as a monomeric allergen.

Structural similarities of human and mammalian lipocalins, and their function in innate immunity and allergy [PDF]
, 2016 Owners and their domestic animals via skin shedding and secretions, mutually exchange microbiomes, potential pathogens and innate immune molecules. Among the latter especially lipocalins are multifaceted: they may have an immunomodulatory function and ...

Endonuclease activity in lipocalins [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 2000 Several lipocalins contain conserved amino acid sequences similar to the phosphodiester bond cleavage domain of sugar non-specific magnesium-dependent nucleases of the Serratia marcescens type. His-89 and Glu-127 of the S. marcescens endonuclease are believed to have a role in the active catalytic site by the attack of a water molecule at the ...

The diversity of lipocalin receptors
Biochimie, 2022 Lipocalins are important carriers of preferentially hydrophobic molecules, but they can also bind other ligands, like highly polar siderophores or intact proteins. Consequently, they are involved in a variety of physiological processes in many species.

Comparative diagnostic value of NGAL and multibiomarker models in pediatric sepsis-associated acute kidney injury in Indonesia: a preliminary study [PDF]
Childhood Kidney DiseasesPurpose Sepsis is a leading cause of pediatric critical illness and a major contributor to acute kidney injury (AKI). Sepsis-associated AKI (SA-AKI) worsens outcomes, yet current diagnostic criteria based on serum creatinine and urine output lack ...
