Controlling the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome by post-translational modifications (PTMs) of critical protein subunits has emerged as a key determinant in inflammatory processes as well as in pathophysiology. In this review, we put into context the

A mixed clustering coefficient centrality for identifying essential proteins [PDF]
Essential protein plays a crucial role in the process of cell life. The identification of essential proteins can not only promote the development of drug target technology, but also contribute to the mechanism of biological evolution. There are plenty of scholars who pay attention to discovering essential proteins according to the topological structure

FMDV replicons encoding green fluorescent protein are replication competent [PDF]
The study of replication of viruses that require high bio-secure facilities can be accomplished with less stringent containment using non-infectious 'replicon' systems. The FMDV replicon system (pT7rep) reported by Mclnerney et al. (2000) was modified by

Predicting mutational effects on protein-protein binding via a side-chain diffusion probabilistic model [PDF]
Many crucial biological processes rely on networks of protein-protein interactions. Predicting the effect of amino acid mutations on protein-protein binding is vital in protein engineering and therapeutic discovery. However, the scarcity of annotated experimental data on binding energy poses a significant challenge for developing computational ...

Mass spectrometry quantification of clusterin in the human brain
Background The multifunctional glycoprotein clusterin has been associated with late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Further investigation to define the role of clusterin in AD phenotypes would be aided by the development of techniques to quantify level ...

Research progress of Nedd4L in cardiovascular diseases
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are a covalent processing process of proteins after translation. Proteins are capable of playing their roles only after being modified, so as to maintain the normal physiological function of cells.

To translate, or not to translate: viral and host mRNA regulation by interferon-stimulated genes. [PDF]
Type I interferon (IFN) is one of the first lines of cellular defense against viral pathogens. As a result of IFN signaling, a wide array of IFN-stimulated gene (ISG) products is upregulated to target different stages of the viral life cycle.
