Erratum: Signal propagation in proteins and relation to equilibrium fluctuations (PLoS Computational Biology (2007) 3, 9, (e172) DOI: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.0030172)) [PDF]
Elastic network (EN) models have been widely used in recent years for describing protein dynamics, based on the premise that the motions naturally accessible to native structures are relevant to biological function. We posit that equilibrium motions also

The neuropathy target esterase is a membrane-bound enzyme linked to organophosphate-induced distal neuropathy. Here we report a tentative mechanism of its solubilization from chicken embryo brains by using phospholipase A2.

Two unusual cases of PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration from India
Phospholipase A2-associated neurodegeneration (PLAN) comprises of three disorders with overlapping presentations. The most common of these is classical or infantile-onset phospholipase A2-associated neurodegeneration, also known as infantile neuroaxonal ...

Effects of omega-3 fatty acids on arterial stiffness in patients with hypertension: a randomized pilot study. [PDF]
BackgroundOmega-3 fatty acids prevent cardiovascular disease (CVD) events in patients with myocardial infarction or heart failure. Benefits in patients without overt CVD have not been demonstrated, though most studies did not use treatment doses (3.36 g)

Amyloid proteotoxicity initiates an inflammatory response blocked by cannabinoids. [PDF]
The beta amyloid (Aβ) and other aggregating proteins in the brain increase with age and are frequently found within neurons. The mechanistic relationship between intracellular amyloid, aging and neurodegeneration is not, however, well understood.

Effect of diet on the quality and quantity of venom produced by Apis cerana [PDF]
The bee venom samples from honey bee (Apis cerana) foraged on seven plants dominating seven sites in Malaysia were collected. The protein content of the pollen loads of these test plants were tested according to the method of Kjeldahl (AOAC 1990).

Lipids at the crossroad of α-synuclein function and dysfunction: Biological and pathological implications [PDF]
Since its discovery, the study of the biological role ofα-synuclein and its pathologicalimplications has been the subject of increasing interest. The propensity to adoptdifferent conformational states governing its aggregation and fibrillation makes ...
