Aminopeptidase C of Aspergillus niger is a Novel Phenylalanine Aminopeptidase [PDF]

, 2003
A novel enzyme with a specific phenylalanine aminopeptidase activity (ApsC) from Aspergillus niger (CBS 120.49) has been characterized. The derived amino acid sequence is not similar to any previously characterized aminopeptidase sequence but does share ...

Artificial neural networks for the prediction of peptide drift time in ion mobility mass spectrometry

BMC Bioinformatics, 2010
Background There is an increasing usage of ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IMMS) in proteomics. IMMS combines the features of ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) and mass spectrometry (MS).

Sequence homology between HLA-bound cytomegalovirus and human peptides: A potential trigger for alloreactivity. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
Human cytomegalovirus (hCMV) reactivation may often coincide with the development of graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) in stem cell transplantation (SCT).

Identification of novel Arabidopsis thaliana upstream open reading frames that control expression of the main coding sequences in a peptide sequence-dependent manner

Nucleic Acids Research, 2015
Upstream open reading frames (uORFs) are often found in the 5′-leader regions of eukaryotic mRNAs and can negatively modulate the translational efficiency of the downstream main ORF.

Mapping the interaction of B cell Leukemia 3 (BCL-3) and nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) p50 identifies a BCL-3-mimetic anti-inflammatory peptide [PDF]

, 2015
The NF-κB transcriptional response is tightly regulated by a number of processes including the phosphorylation, ubiquitination, and subsequent proteasomal degradation of NF-κB subunits.

Efficient processing of an antigenic sequence for presentation by MHC class I molecules depends on its neighboring residues in the protein [PDF]

, 1991
Processing of endogenously synthesized proteins generates short peptides that are presented by MHC class I molecules to CD8 T lymphocytes. Here it is documented that not only the sequence of the presented peptide but also the residues by which it is ...

Enhancement of chondrogenic differentiation in ATDC5 cells using GFOGER-modified peptide nanofiber scaffold

Türk Biyokimya Dergisi, 2023
Owing to its avascular nature, cartilage tissue has a restricted capacity for regeneration. These structural features make it difficult for a fully functional tissue to regenerate after damage.

Influence of pH and sequence in peptide aggregation via molecular simulation [PDF]

, 2015
We employ a recently developed coarse-grained model for peptides and proteins where the effect of pH is automatically included. We explore the effect of pH in the aggregation process of the amyloidogenic peptide KTVIIE and two related sequences, using ...

Identification and Characterization of a Hexapeptide with Activity Against Phytopathogenic Fungi That Cause Postharvest Decay in Fruits

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2000
A hexapeptide of amino acid sequence Ac-Arg-Lys-Thr-Trp-Phe-Trp-NH 2 was demonstrated to have antimicrobial activity against selected phytopathogenic fungi that cause postharvest decay in fruits.
