Binding Affinity and Capacity for the Uremic Toxin Indoxyl Sulfate
Protein binding prevents uremic toxins from removal by conventional extracorporeal therapies leading to accumulation in maintenance dialysis patients. Weakening of the protein binding may enhance the dialytic elimination of these toxins.

Binding of anisotropic curvature-inducing proteins onto membrane tubes [PDF]
Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs superfamily proteins and other curvature-inducing proteins have anisotropic shapes and anisotropically bend biomembrane. Here, we report how the anisotropic proteins bind the membrane tube and are orientationally ordered using mean-field theory including an orientation-dependent excluded volume.

Coarse-grained model of adsorption of blood plasma proteins onto nanoparticles [PDF]
We present a coarse-grained model for evaluation of interactions of globular proteins with nanoparticles. The protein molecules are represented by one bead per aminoacid and the nanoparticle by a homogeneous sphere that interacts with the aminoacids via a central force that depends on the nanoparticle size.

Photoaffinity Labeling of Plasma Proteins
Photoaffinity labeling is a powerful technique for identifying a target protein. A high degree of labeling specificity can be achieved with this method in comparison to chemical labeling.

A mini-review of the diffusion dynamics of DNA-binding proteins: Experiments and models [PDF]
In the course of various biological processes, specific DNA-binding proteins must find a particular target sequence/protein or a damaged site on the DNA efficiently. DNA-binding proteins perform this task based on diffusion. Yet, investigations over recent decades have found that the diffusion dynamics of DNA-binding proteins are generally complicated ...

Space Layout of Low-entropy Hydration Shells Guides Protein Binding [PDF]
Protein-protein binding enables orderly and lawful biological self-organization, and is therefore considered a miracle of nature. Protein-protein binding is steered by electrostatic forces, hydrogen bonding, van der Waals force, and hydrophobic interactions.

The binding of flurbiprofen to plasma proteins
Abstract The binding of flurbiprofen to human serum albumin and normal plasma was measured using ultracentrifugation. Flurbiprofen was bound in excess of 99% in all cases. Over the concentration range normally associated with therapy the data could be adequately described by a one-site binding model.
