Biophysical characterization of the outer membrane polysaccharide export protein and the polysaccharide co-polymerase protein from Xanthomonas campestris [PDF]

, 2014
This study investigated the structural and biophysical characteristics of GumB and GumC, two Xanthomonas campestris membrane proteins that are involved in xanthan biosynthesis. Xanthan is an exopolysaccharide that is thought to be a virulence factor that

Cell‐cycle‐specific lesion evolution rather than inhibition of double‐strand‐break repair underpins cisplatin radiosensitization

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We analyze cisplatin–DNA adducts (CDAs) and double‐strand breaks (DSBs) in a cell‐cycle‐dependent manner. We find that CDAs form similarly across all cell cycle phases. DSBs arise only in S‐phase. CDAs might not directly impair DSB repair, but S‐phase DSB lesions evolve in the presence of CDAs and disrupt repair in G2, also causing radiosensitization ...

Innovative Implementation of Computational Fluid Dynamics in Proteins Denaturation Process Prediction in Goose Breast Meat and Heat Treatment Processes Optimization

Applied Sciences
This study aimed to calculate the optimal thermal processing parameters for goose meat using CFD simulation. CFD provides a precise determination of heat treatment conditions by predicting protein denaturation and mass loss, leading to higher quality and

Denaturation of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein under non-thermal microwave radiation

Scientific Reports, 2021
SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, is still a widespread threat to society. The spike protein of this virus facilitates viral entry into the host cell.

Interaction of HS1BP3 with cortactin modulates TKS5 localisation, cell secretion and cancer malignancy

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Here, we demonstrate that HS1BP3 interacts with Cortactin through a proline‐rich region (PRR3.1) and show that this interaction, and HS1BP3 itself, promote cancer cell proliferation and invasion. Inhibition of this interaction leads to build‐up of TKS5 in multivesicular endosomes and altered secretion of CD63 and CD9, providing an explanation for the ...

Differences in the pathways of proteins unfolding induced by urea and guanidine hydrochloride: molten globule state and aggregates. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
It was shown that at low concentrations guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCl) can cause aggregation of proteins in partially folded state and that fluorescent dye 1-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid (ANS) binds with these aggregates rather than with ...

New Natural Injection-Moldable Composite Material from Sunflower Oil Cake [PDF]

, 2006
Through a twin-screw extrusion process the native structure of sunflower oil cake was completely transformed (globular protein denaturation/texturization and husk fiber defibration) into a simpler matrix-fiber structure, as could be seen on SEM ...

Raman‐based label‐free microscopic analysis of the pancreas in living zebrafish larvae

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Forward stimulated Raman scattering (F‐SRS) and epi coherent anti‐Stokes Raman scattering (E‐CARS) allow label‐free discrimination of distinct subcellular structures in the pancreas of living zebrafish larvae. Given the straightforward applicability, we anticipate broad implementation of Raman microscopy in other organs and across various biomedical ...

Effect of Lactobacillus pentosus fermentation on molecular structure and gel quality of peanut protein

Journal of Future Foods
Peanut protein was fermented by Lactobacillus pentosus, to study the effects of different protein composition of peanut protein isolate, arachin and concomitant arachin on their molecular structure and thermal properties during fermentation, the ...
