SDM-assist software to design site-directed mutagenesis primers introducing "silent" restriction sites [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Over the past decades site-directed mutagenesis (SDM) has become an indispensable tool for biological structure-function studies. In principle, SDM uses modified primer pairs in a PCR reaction to introduce a mutation in a cDNA insert.

Linking structure and function of the asialoglycoprotein receptor H1-CRD using site-directed mutagenesis and isotope labeling [PDF]
The asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGP-R) is a C-type lectin, abundantly expressed on hepatocytes. It mediates the clearance of desialylated glycoproteins carrying terminal galactose (Gal) or N-acetyl-galactosamine (GalNAc) residues through endocytosis ...

VH-RELATED IDIOTOPES DETECTED BY SITE-DIRECTED MUTAGENESIS [PDF]
The function of the CD4 cell surface protein as coreceptor on T helper lymphocytes and as receptor for HIV makes this glycoprotein a prime target for an immune intervention with mAb.

Identification of a key residue for Oligomerisation and pore-formation of Clostridium perfringens NetB [PDF]
Necrotic enteritis toxin B (NetB) is a β-pore-forming toxin produced by Clostridium perfringens and has been identified as a key virulence factor in the pathogenesis of avian necrotic enteritis, a disease causing significant economic damage to the ...

Computationally Optimizing the Directed Evolution of Proteins [PDF]
Directed evolution has proven a successful strategy for protein engineering. To accelerate the discovery process, we have developed several computational methods to optimize the mutant libraries by targeting specific residues for mutagenesis, and ...

Site-directed mutation of a laccase from Thermus thermophilus: Effect on the activity profile [PDF]
A site-directed mutant R453T of a laccase from Thermus thermophilus HB27 (Tth-laccase) was constructed in order to investigate the effect on laccase catalytic properties. The mutated gene was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli.

In silico Analysis and Site-directed Mutagenesis of Promoters
In normal as in cancerous cells, gene expression is tightly regulated by transcription factors, which are responsible for up- or down-regulation of thousands of targets involved in different cell processes. Transcription factors can directly regulate the

Improved immobilization of laccase on a glassy carbon electrode by oriented covalent attachment [PDF]
A laccase from Thermus thermophilus HB27 was reported to be potentially useful in the design of a temperature controlled biofuel cell. For enhancing its application in different thermal conditions, we engineered a laccase-oriented immobilized ...
