Non-Contiguous Protein Recombination [PDF]
Swapping sequence elements among related proteins can produce chimeric proteins with novel behaviors and improved properties such as enhanced stability. Although homologous mutations are much more conservative than random mutations, chimeras of distantly-

Kinetics of non-structural protein 1, IgM and IgG antibodies in dengue type 1 primary infection [PDF]
Abstract Background Early and accurate diagnosis of dengue infection is essential for control of disease outbreaks. Recently, the dengue virus non-structural antigen 1 (NS1), a conserved and secreted glycoprotein, has been used as a marker for early diagnosis of dengue with convenience and cost-effectiveness ...

Analysis of intraviral protein-protein interactions of the SARS coronavirus ORFeome [PDF]
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) genome is predicted to encode 14 functional open reading frames, leading to the expression of up to 30 structural and non-structural protein products.

Cleft analysis of Zika virus non-structural protein 1
The non-structural protein 1 is an important molecule of the viruses in flavivirus group including to Zika virus. Recently, the NS1 of Zika virus was discovered. There is still no complete information of the molecular interaction of NS1 of Zika virus which can be the clue for explanation for its pathogenesis and further drug search.

Design and structural characterisation of olfactomedin-1 variants as tools for functional studies [PDF]
Background Olfactomedin-1 (Olfm1; also known as Noelin or Pancortin) is a highly-expressed secreted brain and retina protein and its four isoforms have different roles in nervous system development and function.

Prediction of Protein Function Using Statistically Significant Sub-Structure Discovery [PDF]
Proteins perform a vast number of functional roles. The number of protein structures available for analysis continues to grow and, with the development of methods to predict protein structure directly from genetic sequence without imaging technology, the

Nuclear localization of non-structural protein 1 and nucleocapsid protein of equine arteritis virus
RNA synthesis (genome replication and subgenomic mRNA transcription) directed by equine arteritis virus (EAV; familyArteriviridae, orderNidovirales) occurs on modified cytoplasmic membranes to which most viral replicase subunits localize. Remarkably, a fraction of non-structural protein 1 (nsp1), a protein essential for transcription but dispensable ...

Effects of NMR spectral resolution on protein structure calculation [PDF]
Adequate digital resolution and signal sensitivity are two critical factors for protein structure determinations by solution NMR spectroscopy. The prime objective for obtaining high digital resolution is to resolve peak overlap, especially in NOESY ...

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome viruses (PRRSV-1 and -2) are the causative agents of one of the most important infectious diseases affecting the global pig industry. Previous studies, largely focused on PRRSV-2, have shown that non-structural protein-1α (NSP1α) and NSP1β modulate host cell responses; however, the underlying molecular ...
