Differences in collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase assembly between two Caenorhabditis nematode species despite high amino acid sequence identity of the enzyme subunits [PDF]
The collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases (P4Hs) are essential for proper extracellular matrix formation in multicellular organisms. The vertebrate enzymes are α2β2 tetramers, in which the β subunits are identical to protein disulfide ...

Protein disulfide isomerase regulates endoplasmic reticulum stress and the apoptotic process during prion infection and PrP mutant-induced cytotoxicity. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), is sorted to be enzymatic chaperone for reconstructing misfolded protein in endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Recently, PDI has been identified as a link between misfolded protein and neuron apoptosis.

Novel perylene diimides for improved photophysical and electrochemical properties
In this study, ortho-terphenyl groups were introduced at the 1- and 7-bay positions of PDI (PDI–TP), and their effect on the photophysical and electrochemical properties were studied along with density functional theory calculations.

PDI-Regulated Disulfide Bond Formation in Protein Folding and Biomolecular Assembly
Disulfide bonds play a pivotal role in maintaining the natural structures of proteins to ensure their performance of normal biological functions. Moreover, biological molecular assembly, such as the gluten network, is also largely dependent on the ...

Reliability and validity of the Japanese version of Pain Disability Index.
This study evaluated the reliability and validity of a Japanese version of Pain Disability Index (PDI). Analyses were conducted on a 7-item version (PDI-J) and a 5-item (PDI-5-J version of the PDI).

Inactivation of mammalian Ero 1α is catalysed by specific protein disulfide isomerases [PDF]
Disulfide formation within the endoplasmic reticulum is a complex process requiring a disulfide exchange protein such as protein disulfide isomerase and a mechanism to form disulfides de novo.

The Periodontal Disease Index (PDI) [PDF]
THE PERIODONTAL Disease Index is a clinician's modification of Russell's PI index for epidemiological surveys of periodontal disease. The PDI index is primarily concerned with an accurate assessment of the periodontal status of the individual person. Emphasis is placed on recording of the attachment level of the periodontal tissues relative to the C-E ...
