Potentially virulence-related extracellular proteins of Streptococcus equi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Equine strangles, a disease of the upper respiratory tract caused by the bacterium Streptococcus equi subspecies equi, is one of the most commonly diagnosed and serious diseases in horses. However, the molecular basis of S. equi subsp.

Binding specificities of cellular retinol-binding protein and cellular retinol-binding protein, type II.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1987
Cellular retinol-binding protein (CRBP) and cellular retinol-binding protein, type ii (CRBP(II] are cytoplasmic proteins that bind trans-retinol as an endogenous ligand. These proteins are structurally similar having greater than 50% sequence homology. Employing fluorescence, absorbance, and competition studies, the ability of pure preparations of CRBP(

Toll Like Receptor 4: A Potential Link Between Obesity and Metabolic Diseases

open access: yesObesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epidemiological evidence shows that obesity increases the risk of developing metabolic diseases. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind this connection remain underappreciated. The substantial impact of these disorders on global health has led to extensive research efforts aimed at identifying the pathophysiological links between them.

Vitamin A transport in chicken plasma: isolation and characterization of retinol-binding protein (RBP), prealbumin (PA), and RBP–PA complex

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1975
Vitamin A-transporting protein in chicken plasma was purified by column chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex and Sephadex G-100; the protein formed a complex of retinol-binding protein (RBP) with prealbumin (PA).

New Insights Into Diffuse Sclerosing Osteomyelitis: Is There a Role of ANA and Vitamin B6?

open access: yesOral Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Object Diffuse sclerosing osteomyelitis is a poorly understood chronic disease, which appears predominantly in the mandible. Female patients are more often affected than men. DSO is an ultra‐rare disease and incidence is unknown; diagnosis can be very challenging; pathogenesis is poorly understood.

In vitro starch binding experiments: Study of the proteins related to grain hardness of wheat

open access: yes, 2007
Two friabilin components, puroindoline a and GSP-1 were expressed in Escherichia coli. Starch binding properties of the recombinant polypeptides and of friabilin extracted from wheat flour were compared in vitro. The produced proteins as well as native

The Arabidopsis thaliana ATP-binding cassette proteins: an emerging superfamily

open access: yes, 2000
Solute transport systems are one of the major ways in which organisms interact with their environment, Typically, transport is catalysed by integral membrane proteins, of which one of the largest groups is the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) proteins.

Photodegradation of commercial insect repellents containing DEET and IR‐3535 under ultraviolet light associated or not with chemical ultraviolet filters evaluated by Raman spectroscopy

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the photodegradation of commercial insect repellents containing DEET and IR‐3535 under UV‐A and UV‐B irradiation using Raman spectroscopy. Pure DEET and IR‐3535 showed intrinsic photostability, whereas DEET diluted in ethanol and a commercial DEET‐based formulation exhibited significant spectral changes after UV exposure.
