Positive effects of cyanogenic glycosides in food plants on larval development of the common blue butterfly [PDF]
Cyanogenesis is a widespread chemical defence mechanism in plants against herbivory. However, some specialised herbivores overcome this protection by different behavioural or metabolic mechanisms.

Bovine mitochondrial rhodanese is a phosphoprotein
The mitochondrial sulfurtransferase, rhodanese, has been analyzed for phosphate content. Significant amounts of protein-bound phosphate (30-40%) were measured in the six rhodanese preparations examined. Chromatographic experiments followed by phosphate analyses done on two of the preparations indicated that rhodanese A and rhodanese B, two enzyme forms

Single-molecule spectroscopy of unfolded proteins and chaperonin action [PDF]
In the past decade, single-molecule fluorescence techniques provided important insights into the structure and dynamics of proteins. In particular, our understanding of the heterogeneous conformational ensembles of unfolded and intrinsically disordered ...

Absence of functional TolC protein causes increased stress response gene expression in Sinorhizobium meliloti [PDF]
The TolC protein from Sinorhizobium meliloti has previously been demonstrated to be required for establishing successful biological nitrogen fixation symbiosis with Medicago sativa.

Improved Preparation of Bovine Liver Rhodanese
A better method for isolating crystalline rhodanese from bovine liver tissue has been developed. Both the improved over-all yield of enzymic activity obtained and the ease with which the procedure can be carried out make this the method of choice for large scale preparations.

In Vivo Anti-inflammatory Activity of Lipoic Acid Derivatives in Mice [PDF]
Background: In mammals lipoic acid (LA) and its reduced form dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) function as cofactors for multienzymatic complexes catalyzing the decarboxylation of α-ketoacids.

Acute liver injury induced by low dose dimethylnitrosamine alters mediators of hepatic vascular flow
Alterations in liver vascular tone play an important role in chronic liver disease. The hepatic stellate cell (HSC) and mediators such as nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) have been implicated in regulation of vascular tone and intra-hepatic ...
